Well, the President decided he was coming right here to Brooklyn, landing in (and tying up) our beloved Prospect Park, and giving a speech on his education shtick at a Brooklyn high school. No comment, really... the problem with education in this country is the federal government... Can a call for school uniforms be far behind?
Alrightie then.
An earthquake and tsunami hit near Fukushima, Japan... yes, that Fukushima... Because the fact that the nuclear plant is in deep trouble and could, you know, result in some "bad" outcomes (up to... oh... wiping out life in the Northern hemisphere)... but, since it's not being reported...
Seriously-- on that Fukushima thing? A few of our billionaire overlords really should get together and, as a service to humanity, buy up the waste from the four or five hundred nuclear power plants in the world, and clad the waste in stable material (it is technically doable-- just, you know, more expensive than dumping the crap in pools of water... except, of course, it wouldn't require perpetual electric power to maintain the cooling) and then finding somewhere geologically stable to dump the crap... and, of course, decommissioning every one of these nightmares ASAP... as ironic as it is, we can live with less electricity... we probably can't live with massive radiation releases... just saying...
And the Germans seem pissed that we are spying on them... it's not as if we can understand a freaking word... they talk in some foreign language...
Hey, I hear the Jets are over .500!
And the dog turns 51 (and Hillary Clinton turns 66)... tomorrow...
