Oh Dear..


Well, there goes the basketball season. The Raptors limped out of the post season, being nailed 1-4 by the Magic in Orlando. They just weren't ready for the play-offs and blew the first two games by going up to 20 points down in the 1st quarter of each. Then they won the first ACC game but fell apart in the 4th in the second game. And tonight, they collapsed in the second half. A sad way to go out.

And talking of which...


This really should do it for Obama. And you can't really say that this is all about this stupid, arrogant, egotistical preacher man. Clearly Rev. Wright has fallen in love with his own image as the 'righteous firebrand', but Obama has not dealt with it. He just won't disown this idiot. This presents two questions - does he, deep down, kind of agree with this nonsense, or is he just lacking the ruthlessness to lay into Wright. And, if it's the second then he's applying for the wrong job, frankly. Because if you can't dump a twit like this, what the hell are you going to do when the sh*t really hits the fan? And if it's the first answer, then, hey, that's not we what all signed up to when we first got excited by this guy.

So, I guess the issue now is Hillary or McCain. And how depressing is that as a choice. I guess you gotta go for Clinton, if only because of McCain's total blind spot on the economy (a bit of a major blind spot right now). But, jeez, the Clintons back - really, is that what anyone wants?

Oh, and after two weeks of glorious, 20+ sunshine, the winter coats are out again this week. Good times...
