Primary Voters Send Harsh Message to Senate Incumbents
As a resident of Pennsylvania, I was glad to see Specter go down. I kind of like the anti-incumbent feeling that seems to be going around right now. Plus, I kind of like Sestak - since he's ex-Navy.

Hmmm, as much as I like beer, even I can't go with that one.

This reminds me of a joke my mother told when I was a kid.
She was with my brother and I on some sort of scouting event, and one of the other moms had a cold Diet Coke. My mom said, "Mmmm. I'd give a small boy for that Coke." The other mom, knowing she was joking, looked at us and said "Aww, now that's not a very fair trade, is it?" and gave me a pat on the head, to which my mom replied, "Okay, how about two small boys?" The other mom hurried off elsewhere.
Heh. My mom is awesome.

Good to see Rand Paul getting some respect. I hope he runs for president some day.

Is it just me, or do the mascots get weirder every time the Olympics roll around?

Now, I see lots of problems with this. But one must ask - if it gets hot enough to burn wood and cook the pizza, wouldn't that kill off a majority of the microbes that might be a danger?
I know that's not going to console most people, who wouldn't even think that far and would just jump to "They're cooking stuff with wood that used to have dead people on it" and that might be a perfectly reasonable reaction, but now I'm curious and wondering how much of this is actually worth worrying over.

The onslaught of Kudzu
Back in the aftermath of Katrina, a friend of mine suggested that they utilize people displaced by the hurricane to tackle the kudzu problem. Put people to work hacking down kudzu, then convert the plant waste to bio-diesel. It seems to me that the latter half of the plan still has merit, considering how fast this thing grows.

The onslaught of Kudzu
Kudzu can be used to make a kind of rattan furniture, or even housing material, and goats can eat it. (And people can eat goats, drink their milk and make clothing from their fur, if it's the right kind of goat.)
I'm kinda surprised that these factors haven't been combined to turn kudzu into a cure for world hunger.
Until some brainiac gets the idea of splicing it with some plant that can survive in sea water, and ends life as we know it...
