MANILA, Philippines (AP) Church officials say Cardinal Jaime Sin of the Philippines has died.

Obstructionists.

Via AP: Democrats have again prevented the Senate from holding a final vote on John R. Bolton’s nomination to become U.N. ambassador.

The solution? Two words – recess appointment.

I think Saddam has been watching too many episodes of Saturday Night Live.

My money says it is…that’s Demi kissing Bill Clinton. Drudge used this picture to highlight yet another ‘Cheatin Bubba’ story. She probably started out trying to give him one of those ‘Hollywood’ style kisses, part cheek – part corner of the lips. Obviously, kisses of that sort aren’t effective on Bill. He saw that coming from a mile away and instead, turned just in time to catch the full on lip lock.

Whatever.

UPDATE: It aint Demi, but some random supporter who just wanted to kiss Bill.

National Review Online reporter Kathryn Jean Lopez interviews Edward Klein, the author of ‘The Truth About Hillary: What She Knew, When She Knew it, and How Far She’ll Go to Become President’.

Klein does dance a bit over the ‘rape’ claim that was publicized by Drudge. He claims that he is highlighting yet another example of dysfunction between the Clintons. I don’t know – on the surface, it’s a wild allegation.

After reading this interview, I want to read the book, and I will. I’ll be sure to comment here once I’ve been through it.

Or, show-off, I guess. Here’s what I got.

From the Manufacturer
The Saeco Italia fully automatic espresso and coffee center is one of the most feature-rich machines on the market for the money. This work of art makes perfect espresso or coffee in about 30 seconds at the press of a button. The Italia is beautifully designed using an all stainless-steel housing and heavy-duty construction. The Italia is part of a current line of Saeco machines so this model is not outdated.

The key feature of this machine is speed. Enjoy fully automated features that will have you making perfect espresso, coffee, lattes, cafe mochas, cappuccino, and other great coffeehouse drinks in the blink of an eye. You can have a coffee bar in your home or office without taking a lot of counter space because the Italia is compact and tucks easily under most overhead cabinets.

Advanced features include programmable brewing options, adjustable coffee strength, the ability to use pre-ground coffee of your choice in addition to coffee beans, rapid switching between brewing and steaming functions, adjustable coffee grinder for fine tuning your espresso/coffee, special pre-brew coffee conditioning system, and an automated cleaning system.

OK, I didn’t get it yet, but it’s on the way. This week sometime, I’ll be making Americanos and Cappuccinos, staying up late (really late) and blogging of course.

Now go fire up the BBQ, or have a nap, or something…

I’m heading out of town today to go watch my niece graduate from high school (just how did she get to be 18 years old anyhow? That time thing just keeps on happening…)

Maybe I’ll be able to blog tonight, maybe I won’t.

Later.

Can blind people see their dreams? Do they dream?

Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don’t point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?
