I went away for a few days
1. Sandra Day O'Connor resigned from the Supreme Court, giving Bush a chance to put another Scalia on the bench. If William Rehnquist retires, as Robert Novak claimed yesterday that he would according to "court sources," then there might be two more Scalias, facilitating our full transition to police state.
2. Terrorists blew up London yesterday, killing at least 50 people.
3. The premiere of the Fantastic Four was soaked through and through, and all they had to eat was ice cream. (via The Fix)
4. SEIU President Andrew Stern decided that Labor cannot "just elect Democratic politicians" to help their cause, meaning he has at last realized the Republican Party's sincere appreciation for the working class.
In case you were wondering where I've been all week, I was spending the July 4 holiday in beautiful NYC, where the fireworks were very impressive. They shot up those smiley face fireworks they did last year and also new ones that were yellow cubes. At last pyrotechnics has mastered the third dimension.
Now back in Canada, I will be blogging daily again, and trying to soothe my depression over recent events by looking at this website.
