Looks Like Spirit Is Ready To Roll

Howard Dean Knows

The mind of God. But he doesn't have much of a grasp on his own stupidity:

The overwhelming evidence is that there is very significant, substantial genetic component to it," Dean said in an interview Wednesday. "From a religious point of view, if God had thought homosexuality is a sin, he would not have created gay people.

Paul O'Neil's

Book is coming out next Tuesday. And he's airing all the Bush dirty laundry on 60 minutes tomorrow night. I'm sure this is quite coincidental. I also find it very interesting that as Treasury Secretary he had all that confidential Iraq information at his disposal. Not likely, in my mind.

Do These Qualify

As weapons of mass destruction. Probably but they're not the ones we are looking for.

The Booby Broacasting Corporation

Has decided it's OK for commentators to slam the U.S. but not Arabs--the usual hypocrisy for this loony bunch.

Scientists Are Saying

Borax was instrumental in forming life on earth. I wonder if it's this variety?

The National Terror Alert

Has been lowered to yellow. Except for airports and other "important" parts of our infrastructure. And it should stay that way indefinitely in my opinion.

Howard Dean Is Infected With Mad How Disease

According to Austin Bay, that is.

Mad Howard's frantic, peptic rise to top dog in the Democratic pack exhibits similar symptoms, from his "unsteady" (retracted) crack about rebel flags to his hideous conspiratorial "hint" that President Bush knew in advance of 9-11, to his demand we deal with the Soviet Union (it's Russia now, Howard), to his huff that America is no safer with Saddam Hussein incarcerated, followed by his startling revelation that Job is his favorite book in the New Testament.

The Rover

Is stuck. I kinda wondered what they were going to do if all that air bag stuff got in the way. Figured they had a good plan. Doesn't look that way now.

President Bush Says

We are going back to the moon. His father also proposed the same thing but it went nowhere. But GW also finished his father's unfinished business in Iraq. Maybe he can do it with the space program. too.

There's No Doubt

That this will win Wesley Clark the nomination...and maybe even the presidency.

God Save The Queen

Uh, I mean the three little pigs.

Dirty Bombs

Were a distinct possibility during the latest terror threat. Homeland security dispatched science types to several cities just in case.

Eye Surgery

Was a success--for my wife, that is. Cataract removed yesterday afternoon and she's back up to speed today. Looks like she will be in better shape that I was after cataract surgery. The preliminary eye test shows 20/30 and it should get better in the next 6 weeks. My eye has never been the same after the ophthalmologist botched the surgery 2 1/2 years ago.

A Loser

Endorses a loser.

I Couldn't Help Myself


I ripped this off Rich Galen's web site. It was too good to pass up.

About 50 Years Ago

Would have been a good time to start up this program.

Spirit Is Beginning

To phone home. Here is the NASA web site for images sent back by the lander.

Another Important Piece Of Writing

This Just Cements My Impression

That Howard Dean is a complete idiot.

Houston

The Spirit has landed. NASA is back in business on Mars.
