Got any observations?
Spring has sprung, the grass has riz, I wonder where the boidy is?
Actually there are lots of boidies about, pairing up and presumably starting to build their mortgage-free nests.
Hello from the Antipodes, where we are having a lovely early spring day.
We have your president (and his 700 staff and security people).
but it’s interesting you mention that….since it appears PM Howard has turned Sydney into an armed fortress. interesting that wherever chimpy goes he travels w/ a small army and the overall security arrangements are comparable to a world class despot in fear of assassination would require….it’s gonna be a problem for him starting 21 jan 2009….security’s gonna cast him a bundle..cause the ss only goes so far, and l think after some period of time, even they go away.

The Guardian has more, including a twelve-point peace plan.
What is NOT clear: whether the Sunni and Shia participants enjoy the confidence of other Iraqi leaders.
Yet more emails are coming in about accounts I don’t have. It might appear that the net is on the declining curve of device functionality.
When scamming becomes the norm people will just shut it off.

Totally different topic–just heard Olbermann say he’s doing a special comment tonight.
Wow….he’s pissed. He actually said the “L” word. Lie.
I’m not positive, but I think he’s used that word before.
The comment is available online now. Here’s the link

Denmark clapped eight alleged Danish-born Islamic terrorists in the slam, moving on them just before they were about to pull their act.
At last read, the Danes let go six but kept two of them.
