Stuff

It snowed all night long here in Michigan. It is a beautiful fluffy snow, but I don't look forward to going out and cleaning off the car and slipping around the streets while headed to work.

I had a nightmare last night - I dreamed that I had to talk to Hillary Clinton on the phone. I dreamed that I was faking an Arkansan accent while talking to her. She was pretending to be somewhat moderate in her political views. Ha.

I am amazed at the gall of the Democrats (Barbara Boxer, Robert Byrd and Teddy Kennedy, etc.) in the confirmation of Dr. Rice. It looks like these people are going to do everything possible to be obstructionist.

I cannot think of anyone more able to be President Bush's Secretary of State than Dr. Rice.


Just how many infomercials are on TV, anyway? Flipping through the channels here this morning, there are about 30 channels with infomercials, 10 with religious shows and 3 with news.

I'm just rambling.

"207 channels and nothing's on!"

Many of those "religious channels" are "must carry" because they are "local" channels.

They may only be 50 watt UHF transmitters, but because they are "local", the cable system is required to carry them.

Oh, and they get to use lower cable numbers because "must carry" channels must be part of basic cable.

What a wonderful world.
