* it’s COLD up here in the Flower City, and we’re getting snow, pretty regularly now. About 5in. on the ground in my front yard. Predictions are replaced a few more before the end of this week. Warmest temperature; the thirties on Friday. Yeccch.
* The democrats are continuing to make political hay out of the Scooter Libby trial. Interesting, how they’re not trying him on what he was originally charged with; that being leaking the name of Valerie Plame. Make no mistake about it; what they’re doing is a political show trial.
* I’ll be watching the state of the union, of course. Most likely I’ll not blog about it, until I read it tomorrow morning. Or perhaps tomorrow afternoon depending on how the day works. Tomorrow has every indication of being crazy. I do understand that he’s planning on talking about immigrant assimilation; which is to say to “teach them to speak English.” Now if the president would only use that kind of tone of throughout, we’d be better off.
* Currently having lots of fun with my new Palm Pilot. Got a good deal on some memory. It turns out the MP3 player on it sounds better than my actual, stand-alone MP3 player. Randomizes better, too.
*I notice that the sergeant at arms of the United States Senate made a visit to BitsBlog this afternoon. About 2:00 or so, local time. Seems they’re interested in blogging reaction to the Omaba / Madrassa story, which I commented on here this morning. I’m less than convinced this is above board.
