It’s almost frisbee season again, so I figured a little clip from our final pickup game of last summer would be appropriate.
Stall ten!
The news really doesn’t stop, does it? And I didn’t even touch the Toyota recalls… Does anyone have any interesting topics they think I should read more about? As usual, highlights are in red.
Politics
I got this note from someone with many decades’ experience in national politics, about a discussion between two Congressmen over details of the stimulus bill:
“GOP member: ‘I’d like this in the bill.’
“Dem member response: ‘If we put it in, will you vote for the bill?’
“GOP member: ‘You know I can’t vote for the bill.’
“Dem member: ‘Then why should we put it in the bill?’
“I witnessed this myself.”
Over the Christmas break, I went to my first certifiably fancy-shmancy restaurant in Chicago, Spring, home of Chef Shawn McClain, James Beard Winner 2006.
Generally not the sort of place I dine at, but my good friend wyu was in town and I had a Groupon to burn. I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to do do grown up things every once in a while, yah?
