Interview with Enola Gay Pilot
Dang, I must be on a monthly schedule now. Today's little nugget is an interview with the pilot of the Enola Gay, the guy who flew the plane over Hiroshima. Pretty interesting and candid interview and worth a read.

Update to Laca 1.5
Greetings Earth Creatures!
Hope the new year is finding you well, (or at least keeping your head above the water). Things have been rolling along here.
Made it through the holidays, with my bestest present being my new neighbor and girl freind, who made the big move so we can spend more than a weekend a month together. So far it has been great having her here, the cat, not so much (I keed, I keed). This year has started out and looks to be pretty busy, between maybe attending my first NASCAR race in Vegas (if I can get everything planned), to a trip to the homeland for a week during "spring break".
Anyway, that's about it. I jumped on the Twitter bandwagon, so you can catch me there @itsbeer30here and check out some of the people I am following. Later Alligators!

New Link Friday
With all the stuff going on in the world today, sometimes you need someone to explain what exactly it all means. That's where Uncle Jay comes in. His website Uncle Jay Explains the News , along with his podcast, strides in "helping little minds understand big news stories" Check it out, it's hilarious.
Tis the Season....
Happy Christmas to All......
What a great past few months this has been! So much exciting news, with the latest of the 14 billion "loan" to the Big 3. Please please please tell me that part of the "reorganization" has to be they tell the UAW to take a hike, but I really doubt it.
Anyway, the big buzz in The Valley this week has been the appointment of half of the Salazar Congressional clan, Ken, to the Secretary of the Interior. Andrew Ripemoff of facethestate.com summed it up pretty well. Here is an excerpt from the aritcle-
Why did the leader of the free world put a second rate attorney from Manassa in charge of our nation’s natural resources? The Presidential press conference was telling:
REPORTER #1 : Sir. Can you tell us why you chose Ken Salazar?
OBAMA: I’ve made it clear from day one that my cabinet would be made up of only the best and the brightest this country has to offer.
REPORTER #1 : So why did you make an exception?
OBAMA: I felt that he very clearly met the strict criteria I was looking for in an Interior secretary.
REPORTER #1 : How so?
OBAMA: He’s a Western Democrat with a pulse.
REPORTER #2: Mr. President-elect, what does the appointment of Mr. Salazar say about your commitment to diversity?
OBAMA: Well, hopefully it will make the Congressional Hispanic Caucus shut up for a while.
Just another example of the excellence we have to look forward to for the next four years.
On a lighter note, I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy new year! Make a good New Year's Resolution for me!

Post-Election Depression
For those who feel a little (or a lot) down in the dumps this day after elections, here's an article with a few tips.

I actually googled this, I am really bummed today. It doesn't help when the "other side" is right there to celebrate (yeah, I would probably be the same way). I hope that the "messiah" can work the miracles he has promised (doubtful), so I guess I hope that my umbrella is big enough and can hold up for the shit storm that is bound to happen. For more outrage and scolding aimed at the GOP (therapy), I suggest Nel Boortz and/or IMAO .
