Still no word on what the bunny has to do with Easter.
And are Easter eggs supposed to be bunny eggs?
Obama has a perception problem that he is not patriotic. Some serious pandering will be required to correct this.
New conspiracy theory making the rounds - Pro Bush factions within the FBI pushed the Spitzer investigation because of Spitzer public statements blaming the MBS fiasco on the Bush administration's malfeasance. It is a political prosecution.
Nothing will change in Iraq. Ever.
Those PKK Kurds that Turkey keeps trying to kill really are bad guys. We can still like the Kurds in general, though. The Kurds like us, but so do the Turks. But they hate each other. So, where we stand on making northern Iraq a free Kurdistan is tricky. (They share a border.)
If the price of gold keeps falling, that's a good sign. It means you can buy stock again.
Goldman Sachs credit rating downgraded? Say it ain't so. I thought they had avoided the whole suprime mess. What happened?
If oil does go to $200 a barrel, we'll open ANWR and invade Venezuela. Don't forget Panama. Only the Venezuelans really will welcome us, as long as we don't stay too long. Venezuela's upper and middle classes view Chavez as the new Castro, and are leaving the country as fast as they can.
Treasury will form some sort of new RTC and take some of the pressure off the Fed. The resulting fire sale will beget new fortunes and avoid a Japan style long term stagnation.
BP will get kicked out of Russia and it's interests bought out by Gazprom.
David Shuster will cheer up, lose weight, and get his own tv show on MSNBC by Labor Day. He's way more interesting than Tucker Carlson or Dan Abrams. Or even John McLaughlin and George Stephanopoulas for that matter. But maybe not Tom Laughlin. (Implied trivia question - no fair using Google.)
In most of the world, Easter is called "Great Day" or "Great Night." Easter is an ancient German goddess of dawn. The irony is that it was those crazy German Goths who destroyed the city of Rome after it turned Christian. And now we name the most important Christian holiday after a German pagan goddess.
When is Easter? Beats me. I have studied it and still cannot explain how to calculate which Sunday Easter will fall on. Any explanations will be appreciated.
And Snake Nation is engaged. To a man.

I meant to say a very handsome and charming man.
Easter: The first Sunday after the first full moon after the Spring equinox. March 22 is the first day that Easter can possibly be and this year it was on the 23rd, which is why the weather was sucky on spring break. Too early....
I actually went to church on easater and the bulletin had all this trivia, which apparently I read while everyone else was praying.
