Maybe you've read the story about the Arizona woman who thought she had a brain tumor; but when doctors went in they found a parasitic worm chowing on her brain.

I'm back on the proposed bailout of the auto companies today, because I don't think we should be giving these dunderheads any dough.

A year ago she was on the endangered species list, and many assumed she drifted off the continental shelf, which may have caused that tsunami on the west coast of South America.

Well, I predicted that it wouldn't take long before the President elect started taking fire, and that the bullets wouldn't come from Republicans. In the past few days the embers have started to grow into fires, and the far left bloggers are having a hissy fit.

I was in Beverly Hills, staying for the week at the Beverly Hills Hotel, which is a pretty swank joint for a cowboy like me. I was out in La La Land for the L.A Film Festival, or whatever they call it, and I was working on fnding some new clients.

On the front page of today's Washington Post was a story that should interest all fair minded folks.
