Cold and Awful December Night
The main news as of now is the very cold and snowy weather stretching all across the US, from one side to the other. It snowed the other day in Vegas Baby, and an ice storm in Nuengland knocked out power to about a million people another storm is pounding the region right now, and a fifty truck and car pile up happened in Michigan, and Iowa is now getting minus 25 wind chills and mucho ice is all over the road system. Maybe it will get up to 30 degrees by Christmas, but the forecast keeps changing day by day. Some global warming expert the other day on Foxnews tried to explain that having very cold weather actually verified global warming, because very extreme weather really meant that the earth was getting warmer and warmer. Political news is all about Governor Blago announcing that he will not resign, and Obama trying to distance himself from Blago. And O picking an anti-Gay preacher to give the prayer at O's inauguration is stirring controversy. Foxnews made a big deal of getting a farewell interview with Cheney, with a bunch of digs at Biden. I watched it this evening, but did not hear much sensational. Should get a paper tomorrow to see if I missed anything Cheney said that was historically important. Mobs of people today at my local Walmart, so I went to a local Kmart, and it was crowded too. Watched a dvd last night of Talladega Nights, which was not actually very good. Ferrell tried hard to bring Ricky Bobby to life, but the movie was just not that great. Good movie to see once and then move on. In Venezuela Chavez is trying to close a huge shopping center in Caracas, because he does not the people to overdo Consumerism. This is going to be all for right now. You all stay warm, because this winter will be over in about 3 months, and then spring and heat will return, and it will again be shorts and sandals and tshirts time. But last spring we got floods and tornadoes. I also this weekend watched Sideways, which wowed the Oscars crowd, but it did not impress me. Two middle aged guys drinking wine and drooping in their midlife crises. The Patriots and Arz. Cardinals played their game this afternoon played their game in a snow storm. Always something to watch. Di di mau!
