Tankerbabe<\/a> has a real cool story to tell you about a guitar. You need to read it. She emailed the story around a few weeks ago, but it hasn’t lost it’s luster when I read it again this morning.<\/p>\n

Something going around and showing up in my inbox is a story about Joe Biden’s speech to 200 new citizens who also happened to be military members and assigned to units currently deployed to Iraq.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs corny as it sounds,\u201d he told the troops, \u201cDamn, I\u2019m proud to be an American!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Knowledge Is Power<\/a> has pretty good response from DougM. (Hat tip to Chuck<\/a>) <\/p>\n

Iowa Republican Senator Charles Grassley tells a constituent that if they want good health care, they should work for the government<\/a>…and eat cake, too, I suppose;

I don’t know why anyone thinks government employees’ health care is so good, by the way. There are a bunch of plans and if you want to pay a lot, you can get a great plan – I’ve had better and cheaper plans from civilian employers. I get the impression that everyone thinks government employees get free health care or something. <\/p>\n

Stars and Stripes<\/a> reports that tourism is “booming” in Iraq. S&S also does a story<\/a> about the 3rd Infantry Division “wargaming” the withdrawal from Iraq.<\/p>\n

Michelle Malkin<\/a> started the story about fallen soldier Aaron Masters, Twitter spread it, and now Fox News<\/a> writes about him.<\/p>\n

This isn’t news, but the price of oil fell again<\/a> – just like it falls every year after the 4th of July – and every year, for some reason, it’s news.<\/p>\n

And this is just funny from Genghis at Ace of Spades<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m actually working on something that’s pretty complicated and it won’t be up for awhile yet, so I threw these links together so everyone didn’t think I was in the stupid hospital again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
