Spring Break

Well, I'm in Minneapolis now, and let's just say that the timing for this trip was bad for several reasons. Most of all. the weather here is terrible and the weather in DC was fantastic this weekend. It's supposed to be 80 degrees there tomorrow! I think we're going to get six inches of snow here tonight.

Spent almost the entire day watching episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm, some of which I had only seen once three years ago in England. Spent the rest of my time eating Davanni's and listening to Air with the iTunes visualizer on. Also spent a few minutes trying to code HTML over the phone - and you know what: I still got it!

Will hopefully be traveling down to Decorah on Tuesday to see G. Edwin, weather permitting.

I was really glad to read this morning that Russ is the only person in the Senate worth his salt. The Bush apologists use the 9/11 defense for the President breaking the law and the other Democrats won't say anything substantial. Feingold is completely right, Bush should be censured at the least for intentionally breaking the FISA laws; they impeached Clinton for far less. Is there a double standard on the right when it comes to holding presidents accountable for following the law? To take a line from Liar, Liar (a terrible movie): "Stop breaking the law, asshole!" That's what Congress should be telling President Bush, and that's basically what a censure is.

If there is fresh snow tomorrow and the weather is good I think I'll go take some photos of this beautiful city.
