Angels & Demons


The Dalai Lama received the Congressional Metal of Honor this week, and President Bush gave the only eloquent speech I've ever heard him give. The day after the celebrations and his close encounter with His Holiness, Bush spoke out about Myanmar and actually mentioned the word conservation in regards to fishing in Maine.

I say that for the cause of world peace, George W. Bush should go fishing with the Dalai Lama on a regular basis. And for extended periods of time.

Collegiate Wisdom


Hermione tells me that she may be going to Hawaii for her Fall Break from Hogwarts. 20 people from her Geology class get to go. But here's the kicker--the cost of going to Hawaii to study geology comes out to only $50 bucks more than the cost of the geology textbook!

The Next Big Dance Craze?

Maia adds a new phrase to the English lexicon--

Poach a Roach

As in, "Did Biscuit (our dog) just poach a roach?"


Come to think of it, the roach was more like sunny-side-up, but that's not what she meant by 'poach'.
