straight from the horse's mouth

Finally we agree on something....

"And there is distrust in Washington. I am surprised, frankly, at the amount of distrust that exists in this town. And I'm sorry it's the case, and I'll work hard to try to elevate it."— President Bush speaking on National Public Radio, Jan. 29, 2007.

Listen to it here. The "Bushism" is at 17:21.

mom was right...

My mom and other members of my family used to constantly be after me to buy new socks because different parts of my feet would always be poking through some hole or another. I used to think they were crazy; these are socks after all. They are meant to be hidden in shoes. Well, today I found this article about Paul Wolfowitz and it appears that having socks with giant holes in them really can come and bite you when you least expect it. And so, because I know that I am at least as smart as him, I must say, "No more holey socks for me!"
