Potluck: Current Events Ramblings

The Seattle Post Intelligencer. The other Seattle paper in a city that shouldn't have two papers has died an internetted death. No longer printed it listlessly competes with the likes of news.com, cnn.com, foxnews.com, msnbc.com, iknoweverything.com, reuters.com, bob.com, and hundreds of other sites that purport to report. I'd wish them good luck but have decided to send my luck wishing towards something I think worth the trouble.

Obama and his Final Four picks. Coach K thinks the prez should concentrate more on the economy than on his bracket. Coach K better figure out a way to get past the Sweet Sixteen for the first time in God knows how many years.

Obama and Leno. Sittin' in a tree. K-I-S-S A-I-G. Stunned. Annoyed. Ticked. Someone up there didn't do their due diligence in the short term. And some ones in the past allowed these knuckleheads think they could get away with it. Egregious. Ridiculous. And movin' on.

Deadly spiders in stores. Watch for some wacko to be swingin' from store to store tomorrow somewhere claimin' he's spahda mayen.

Anyone else wanted to see Manson's mug? Yeah, thought not.

The Iraq War celebrates its 6th birthday today. I am reminded of the novel 1984 by George Orwell. We're fighting overseas against an enemy about which the average person knows little. Except there's a proposed date for the troops to come home. But we'll see.

Bellevue, WA. A couple of entrepreneurs decide that they're gonna try something out. Alcohol delivery. See i-booze.com if you don't believe me.

And for all of you hiding under a rock, March Madness has begun. So far, so good. 13 of 14 in one bracket. 12 of 14 in another. Underestimated Michigan in both. 11 of 14 on the espn.com bracket. Got Michigan in that one. UCONN, Memphis, and Pitt, I picked in each respectively to win it all. The next round's about to finish. So, why am I sitting in here. Off to see UCLA-VCU in its final seconds...

Huskies-Huskies coming up...
