OT - groundhog day
Paraphrased from Radio America:
Yesterday was both Groundhog Day and the President's State of the Union Address. One involved a meaningless ritual in which we looked, for prognostication, to a goofy looking creature of little discernible intelligence. The other involved a groundhog. |

Getting your facts straight is _always_ important... and I find it incredibly ironic that an attempt at a liberal talk radio network named itself after a CIA covert ops "airline" from the Vietnam era. chuckle -- Joe Ellis |
