Very warm October Sunday in Des Moines--85 degrees. A little more time for shorts and sandals before seasonal reality gets here, and the pounds of winter clothes have to go onto the body for several months. The city seems to be getting a horde of groundhogs into town; I saw several of the cute big things yesterday. Tony Stewart won the race today by driving ahead of everyone else on no gas. Dale Jarrett actually came in in the top five-he aint done nothin for a long time--way to go DJ.
The news today has been all about Woodward's book trashing Rummy, and about the tapes showing OBL and Atta and friends at a Quaeda meeting in 2000. Some blogsites are now claiming that the Dems knew about Foley being a sicko a year ago, and one of Soros' groups leaked the news about Foley, and that the transcripts show Foley's messages to the kid were sick but not actually sexual. Go to Right Wing Nut House and American Thinker to get an explanation of what is going on. And Fatah and Hamas are having a civil war in Ramallah.
Am going to watch at least a portion of the Bears-Seahawks game, which just started. Go Bears!
Is this all that has happened in the last couple of days? Well, a plane crashed in the Amazon jungle and killed 155 people, and a bunch of people were killed in Canada when an overpass collapsed on their cars. There was a brief mention in the Wall Street Journal the other day that Tokyo Rose has died in Manila at age 90. Should look up the story on her on the web in a little while. Not much more to report in this fairly short blog; the news in the world has been very heavy this weekend and I am trying to absorb it all, even if I am lacking in total profoundity about it all. Sorry about that. So, Di di mau for right now. More later.
