Saturday Stuff

Oh well, time to say goodbye to gorgeous Gulf Coast sunsets, pan-seared grouper and pitchers of margaritas and resume that blogging thing again (geez, I go away for a week and the market goes insane - and of course, I wasn't able to take note of the brave sacrifice of our heroes in Afghanistan...I'm sure the Pentagon is doing a review to try and determine why the #@!! so many of them were in a single Chinook transport helicopter; I would hope so anyway).

In the meantime, here's some more spot-on commentary from Jon Stewart (hope the vid cooperates)...

I'm not optimistic on that, for the record.)...
