Almost forgot about this tonight. Too bad.

No Sweat
This week the FDA approved Botox to be used to stop sweating. Well, I think it's just to stop severe sweating. Not just normal sweating. No, you normal sweaters out there can just grin and sweat it, but for those of you that are plagued with severe sweat - a new day has dawned.

Yes, no more ridicule from those who just don't understand, no more getting turned down for a job just because the air condition wasn't turned up enough. And now, finaly, when the teacher asks a question - you can raise that hand. Raise it high. And proud.

The Year of the Blog
Yeah, the democrat convention ain't important enough to get in this week in review - but that fact that for the first time bloggers have been invited as 'press' to the conventions (I believe both conventions) does make it. Think about it - is there really anything more objective than someone who tell you he's biased? I don't think so. So where's my invite?

Never mind.

[UPDATE: Yes, the RNC is doing the same.]

Naming Names
Some are upset that the 9-11 commission wouldn't say if those attacks could have been stopped. I'm sure there are some who are upset that no one was blamed. Well I will. I'm not afraid to name names, to set things straight. I will blame someone. There's one group of people who could have prevented the events of that day. There's one group of people that deserve to bear the blame.

The terrorists.

Okay, can we stop pointing fingers and fight this war now? Please?

Too Strong
Frenchy french people don't like Lance. A lot.

Seems it's not just those right winged war mongering Presidents that get them upset. Seems to just be an American thing. Guess they just don't like us. Or at least don't like us when we're right, winning, powerful, consistent, and generally not them.

That's Us
Guess what? US Special Forces have been asked to guard the Olympics. No kidding. Is it okay to be American now?

Hey, you don't like us - fine. We'll take our Special Forces and go home.

Mars Update

Haven't heard much about this lately.

"Before and after pictures of Pot-of-Gold showed that the rock was moved by the rock abrasion tool procedure. That movement, plus possible slippage where the tool contacts the rock, resulted in only intermittent contact during the grinding operation. After the grind was complete, Spirit placed the alpha particle X-ray spectrometer on the freshly exposed area in preparation for an operation later that night."

Well, that's good to know.
