I heard on NPR this morning that a couple of British diplomats were accused of spying on the Russians in Moscow, using equipment hidden in a rock. If this proves to be true, it will signal a change in British government at its highest levels… the outsourcing bug will have struck British Intelligence; Q having lost his job in research and development to The Sharper Image.
Those former Iron…
Historically speaking, being a Floridian in January means football season is over. College football has had their bowl games, and the Bucs… well, college football has had their bowl games.
Ah, but I kid the Bucs. The Bucs of this season have much in common with the Bucs of last season… mostly because they didn’t play to their level of win-loss record. Last year’s Bucs…

The mayor of New Orleans was asked this morning to respond to the suggestion that the reason assistance has not gotten to his city timely is because it was not asked for through the proper channels.
“You’ve got to be kidding me. You think the folks in New York had to ask for help through proper channels before they got help on 9/11? This is worse than 9/11.”
I mentioned…
Speaker of the House, Dennis Hastert (R-Illinois), and a conservative columnist from Connecticut, suggested today that New Orleans was not worth rebuilding, suggesting: “,if the people of New Orleans and other low-lying areas insist on living in harm’s way, they ought to accept responsibility for what happens to them and their property.”
