Spent an entire day resting and trying to recover from this damnable cold with PurdueChick (who caused said illness in the first place!), but no matter what I do I'm still amongst the walking dead it seems...
That being said, please excuse any trip-ups or random rantings (well, moreso then the usual ranting of course), as it is entirely the cold/cold medicine/PurdueChick's fault...
ANYWAY, on with the news...
Hardball host and secret Hillary Clinton lover (why else you think he despises Bubba so much?) Chris Matthews has ruled out running for Senate in Pennsylvania for the 2010 election.
Gotta say I'm disappointed he isn't going to run, because I'd love to see him under the same scrutiny as he gives elected officials. Not that it isn't warranted, but it would be mildly entertaining to see him squirm a bit.
In an Illinois "Blago Bonanzo" update, Democrats have all but admitted they've been outmaneuvered on Blago's pick for Senate, Mr. Burris...
Already pegged this one to happen, so not at all surprising.
Strange news out of Minnesota concerning dog-sled races... Apparently they can be cancelled for too much snow??? As a Vermont Native, I am familiar with the concept of "too much snow" for many things, however things were rarely cancelled for it (despite all signs of logical thought pointing towards that conclusion), so I'm naturally a lil skeptical.
On a funny note, there seems to be a new fascinating trend among adults at childrens play centers. Violence!

Susquehanna Township police have been called to the restaurant on Union Deposit Road 12 times in the past year for reports of disorderly conduct, assault and theft. Those calls have resulted in 13 arrests, including six women -- five adults and a juvenile -- charged with disorderly conduct in a Saturday-night brawl.
"It's madness, absolute madness," Susquehanna Twp. Police Chief Robert A.
Martin said. Martin said he believes much of the violence stems from ongoing disputes among people who bump into each other in the restaurant. "They see each other at Chuck E. Cheese, and before you know it an argument turns into something physical."
Just awesome...
Finally, quick tally from the developing situation between Israel and Gaza (soon to include Lebanon)...
Sad situation for all involved...
