The Devil went down to Georgia and got some people fired for writing emails from home I promised, I delivered: the story about how Charlie "The Snitch" Daniels, the man responsible for that stupid "Devil Went Down to Georgia" song, got a woman fired for disagreeing with him. The story quotes Charlie's publicist, who did the dirty work, that Charlie had nothing to do with the firing; well, asshole, he hired you, didn't he? Hey. . . does this mean Charlie Daniels is going to get me fired because I disagree with him? Have mercy, Charlie! There's a recession!

Watch as the state smashes the state Keep your eyes open for things like this in the days ahead. I heard El Rushbo shooting his mouth off about this "anti-war" protest in La Habra where the protesters supposedly burned flags and trashed a 9/11 memorial. This article raises the obvious suspicion: that these "protesters" are nothing more than agents provocateur of one stripe or another. Most interesting to me is that the cops watched while the property was trashed and made no arrests. Seeing as how people have been arrested at other protests for stepping off the sidewalk, this seems suspicious to me.

I'm sure they were just the most qualified people for the job In the "shocked not surprised" story of the day, Halliburton, the oil company that just got a contract allowing it to "rebuild" Iraq's oil fields after the war, is still paying Vice President Dick Cheny up to $1 million per year. The vicious cynics among your ranks probably thing one thing has something to do with the other.
The Mother of All Bombs Was anyone else a little disturbed by this faux-nuke? The 21,000 MOAB bomb is supposed to intimidate Iraq without actually resorting to non-conventional weapons. The military likes to say MOAB stands for "mother of all bombs." Readers of the Bible might remember Moab as a kingdom hostile to the Hebrews in the Old Testament. The Moabites were apparently wiped out after transferring their allegiance to Babylon's king Nabuchodonosor. Oh well, at least they didn't drop this thing on Puerto Rico.
The first casualty of war is Tony Blair's job 40 MPs from his own party are demanding that he resign. In addition, up to 200 MPs total are willing to vote against him if he goes to war without UN sanction. Goodbye Tony, it was fun while it lasted.
Boy, will I be embarassed once the FBI finds out I still mostly read Judy Blume books Libraries in California are now warning patrons that the FBI might be monitoring what they read. So far, the FBI has demanded patron records from 83 academic libraries and an undisclosed number of other libraries. I just took out a book called "The Satanic Mass" from the university library nearby; should I be worried?

Here it is, direct from the humming wires of the Associated Press (http://www.ap.org) to your brain pans:
The Big News: Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic, a key figure in the revolt that toppled the criminal regime of Slobodan Milosevic, has been assassinated by gunmen.
The Roundup: The search for bin Laden "intensifies" in Pakistan. . . the European Court of Human Rights ruled that Turkey didn't give a Kurdish rebel leader a fair trial. . . Angola's president has recently taken phone calls from Bush and Cheney begging for his support on the Iraq resolution. This is a big change from the 1980s, when guys like Cheney supported the murderous terrorist Jonas Savimbi in his efforts to kill the current Angolan leader. . . Pope John Paul II has released his strongest anti-war statement yet, calling the proposed war against Iraq "immoral" and "a crime." That should be enough to bring Mel Gibson around to the Charlie Daniels side of the bed.
