Just Observing

Just Observing

So. Group is suing Rumsfeld on behalf of people who were tortured. But Atty Gen Gonzales can't/won't take it up because he's liable too. Should have an Independent Counsel take the case, but Gonzales is not about to appoint one. Not sure I've got that straight, but glad people are pursuing those wretched, low-down individuals. Sick is what they are.

It being Tuesday, the writers gathered tonight. No, nobody wanted to adopt a "10 year old, sweet and gentle pit bull". Sheesh! Then came a conversation about all kinds of dogs. Consider that Afhgan Hounds were used to chase lions down. Which they did, and caught them too. They are FAST and can about leap tall buildings. But one of the writers asked if the rest of us knew they were terrible thieves as well...

Seems she had a plumber over. Plumber was lying on his face under the kitchen sink. Had his tools next to his thigh. He'd reach down to get one, and it would be gone. This went on awhile until he got nervous enough to mention it to the Hound's owner. Whereupon she walked him out to the back yard and there, in a pile, lay all his missing tools.

Next thing...people talking about encounters with snakes...then rats, then Bush cutting veterans benefits, then Gibson's movie, "The Passion of the Christ"...which led to much discussion about what was historically accurate and what wasn't.

And talk about the virtues of a Carne Asada Burrito with sour cream and guacamole as opposed to the Sour Cream Enchiladas, who could eat those hot carrot slices and who couldn't. And how to reset the computer to a past date so that mistakinly deleted address could be retrieved, and iPod broadcasts taking the place of radio, the time that the writers who are going to a grade school in the morning to read aloud to the kids should arrive.

Then requests for the URL of the hilarious guy who blogs about the 10 things he's done that day--http://10thingsididtoday.blogspot.com/ --and I don't know what all else. The waitress who takes care of us each Tuesday has decided we're all nuts.
Wrap.
