It's August: Tony Snow's in Charge
Big News
Washington has switched to its summer schedule. The President's out somewhere, Congress is gone somewhere else. Tony Snow is running the country. I think we'll be alright unless Cheney shoots him.
The U.S. Amy is expanding recruiting incentives and loosening rules on age and weight limits, education and drug and criminal records. So the future soldier could be an old, fat convicted druggie. Just the type of guy to handle an air-cooled gas-operated semi-automatic rifle.
- Maybe the Iraqi army can teach the new guys how to shoot.
An AP report says that nudist camps are having trouble attracting young people. So's the army. Maybe if the two joined forces we could soon have either armed nudists or a naked army.
- Either one would scare al-Qaida right back to the asylum.
Three things cause severe memory loss: a blow to the head, old age, and testifying before a congressional hearing.

Shallow Thoughts
This portion of today's blog is brought to you by Whatabeer! Ex-athletes love Whatabeer! Come to think of it, that's probably why they are ex-athletes.
I love barbecue. I think the carcinogens taste almost as good as the saturated fat.
I own the Lexus of barbecue grills. It has fuel injection, a sprinkler system, and it plays "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire."
Whenever I barbecue, my family insists on asking the blessing before I light the grill.
I went to a tough school. You had to go outside for recess whether you wanted to buy drugs or not.
Marriage is a wonderful institution. In fact, of all the institutions I've been in, I liked marriage best.
Man is the only creature stupid enough to put fertilizer on his lawn so he can mow it twice as often.
