Summer Is Here!


A MONTH AGO!

Ok, Ok, yeah. I know. Technically, it began in the United States yesterday June 21, at about 8:30am Eastern Standard Time because...

that's when the earth moves...

...in its yearly orbit about the sun...

In an unrelated story...

HOORAY! THE NBA SEASON IS OVER!

I hate basketball.


But...

The whole World Cup Soccer thingy is goin' on in Germany or somewhere.

Why are they reporting that over here?

Don't they know Americans hate soccer?!


And. You can't get out of here without me being serious for one minute though. Did you guys read this?

"We have found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, chemical weapons," Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Pa., said in a quickly called press conference late Wednesday afternoon.

Reading from a declassified portion of a report by the National Ground Intelligence Center, a Defense Department intelligence unit,...


Now let's see if this gets wide press today. I wonder what my left-leaning friends will say today. "Well, it's only 500 weapons, blah, blah.

It only takes ONE to cause mass destruction, people!
