Before I forget…
- Having moments ago viewed The Hills Have Eyes(1977), I can state with some certainty that, though hill-folk may lack a proper dental health plan, their young women can be expected to maintain an extensive waxing regimen. I can’t say whether or not a Brazilian was involved, but there’s certainly as little leg hair as there is clothing.
- Why is every small military dictatorship called a junta? Shouldn’t that term be reserved for post-revolutionary governments in Spanish-speaking countries? Spanish may have been incorporated into tagalog in the Philippines, but you can’t reasonably expect the people of Myanmar or Thailand to know what you’re saying when you tell them they live under a junta.
- Whoa! Until five seconds ago, I was unaware that George Carlin passed away on Sunday. Condolences to his family and the comedic community.
- Condoleezza (two z’s, really?) Rice did Fareed Zakaria’s show on Sunday. Generally, my knee-jerk reaction to our current Secretary of State involves foaming at the mouth, but, in a one-on-one discussion with one of my favorite international affairs pundits, she seemed both intelligent and personable.
What’s that beeping sound? Oh, I think my brain just finished the spin cycle.
- Everyone’s favorite senior Senator from Texas, Kay Bailey Hutchison, made an appearance on This Week on Sunday. Once again, she was espousing the need to lower gas prices by building more nuclear power plants. Once again, I was puzzled as to who in their right mind would burn oil to produce electricity.
I don’t have time at the moment, but you can expect me to post a relatively full energy/environmental platform in the near future.
