Mousaoui got sentenced to life in prison just a little while ago, and I am watching Cavuto on Fox relate and discuss the matter. The local newspaper the Des Moines Register ran an editorial today holding that we should keep talking to Iran about its nuke plans and not threaten them. Sounds good, but the same thing was said about how to deal with the German leader in the mid 1930s. But Dean Rusk was always using Munich as to why we should fight the North Vietnamese in the 1960s. Past events really do not go away. That is not really a brilliant new discovery I have made.
The jury's decision on Moussaoui seems to be very convoluted and controversial as to what they thought he was actually guilty of. This and the immigrant strike Monday will be talk fodder for quite a while. It is only Wed. and we have four more days in this week for something else to happen Big. At least several dozen Iraqis have been killed today in bombings and executions. As usual it all gets related in short news blips, and then the news goes on to something else.
Moussaoui will supposedly get life in total solitary confinement. Hopefully CNN or Norville will not try to send a camera crew to the prison to get an exclusive interview with M., like the networks used to do with Manson over the years. Sirhan has pretty much been kept off TV over the years, and I do not know if he is in solitary or what his prison life is like.
I found a copy yesterday at a thrift store of Dennis Mack Smith's biography of Mussolini, about whose life I know very little. Mack Smith does the bio around Musso as an individual and does not give the reader much info about Italy or European history. It is all Benito all the time, who Mack Smith sees as an Actor and not much of a thinker. And when the acting act ran down Benito crashed. Like the movie about Danton, with Depardieu. Interesting book I am planning to finish to give myself a little education. I am really not very smart or educated.
The soap opera Passions has put a story about a mermaid into the plot. Tabitha is behind the whole thing. The mermaid is a blond knockout in her gold bikini. Too bad the story is just a ripoff of Splash, but it is bound to shoot the ratings for Passion way way up. Now, if they could just get rid of Theresa, finally. And bring back cracked Connie.
Tiger Woods' father died today. Yesterday was the 60th birthday for Leslie Gore. No news on whether she cried at her birthday party.
So much has happened in the news today I need to stop and absorb it. So, fans, this is going to be all for right now. Di di mau!
