Fun things from the past day or few

It takes a lot to bring me back to my blog...

Scooter Libby found guilty, Ben & Jerry announced a new flavor: Willie Nelson’s Country Peach Cobbler, a U.S. attorney from my home state isn't going quietly, curmudgeon Jon Winokur set the record straight on the definition of irony that Alanis got so terribly wrong, and Ellen made this great joke at the Oscar's:



And speaking of Ben & Jerry's, they have some good info on the cloning issue going before the FDA. Send in your comments this month!

So why I haven't I been blogging? Maybe it's because my hard drive crashed on my home computer for the second time in two years and I still haven't fixed it. Or maybe it's my sacroiliac joint dysfunction that has kept me off the dance floor & volleyball court, and made it hard to sit in front of a computer. Or maybe I just spend too much time being busy. Whatever the reason, I'm back.

Here's an interesting article that doesn't give me much hope for the prison recidivism rate in the U.S., and it looks like you are pretty much screwed if you don't have Windows XP or Vista come daylight savings time.

But on the more optimistic side of things, here's a little more New Mexico pride:
Senate Joint Resolution 5 was introduced by 8 Senators from NM. Yay NM! (perhaps this is a bit more important than the Bolo Legislation!) Look for impeachment actions starting this weekend, culminating in a national day of protest on April 28th.
