Love will outlast Bush
It's tiresome to think about weasels all the time. Let us remember that somewhere a woman is waiting outside a hotel for a man...

By Garrison Keillor
...........

The people who are getting reamed by this administration are people under 30, and they are, like, OK with that. They walk around with little wires coming out of their ears and 10,000 tunes on their iPods, and if you go, like, Global Warming, they are, like, Whatever. And you go, Government Deficit, and they are, like, Duuuuuuuuuuuude.

Our country has been entered into a 30-year war against Islam, and I will not be fighting it. I am, like, 63. In fact, I am not only like 63, I am 63 and will soon be 64 when I hope you will still need me and feed me. I am sitting pretty. If the polar icecap melts, it's no problem in Minnesota: The ocean isn't going to wash up on our doorsteps. No hurricanes on our horizon. None of my friends are penguins. If Iran gets the bomb, are they going to fly all the way to Minnesota to drop it?

2. thank you, Garrison

I just love the guy.

Taking a step back and "let(ting) others rag on the president" isn't for everyone, but I like what he says about spring and how we need to focus on the good things, too.

(I just noticed that he only says "Take the day off," which I hope means he's not laying off Bush for good; I would miss him so much!)
