   I’m celebrating with my daughter because she rocked on her PSATs- 98th percentile!  Not bad for an 11 year old, eh?

   Then we’re going to bake cookies, wrap presents and relax all day.

       Thanks! I’ll let her know.  

       She has a work ethic that makes Bush look like… Bush.  It’s nice when she gets reinforcement like this for her labors.

     11 years old?!

     Wow. I wish I was that smart when I was that young…which was 10 years ago. Damn, I’m getting old (and yes, I know I’ll take shit for that comment 😛 ).

   Al Gore’s speech in Bali, where he referred to America as the ‘elephant in the room’ that they’d have to work around.

   That and what to get my brother for Christmas…

   I wish the person who came up with the idea pepper spraying Mexican Territory had a P-SAT in the top 2%…Congrats.

   main headline on huffpost right now is bill clinton saying it will be a miracle if hillary wins iowa.

   anybody remember this very week 4 years ago when trippi said almost the same thing about dean.

   its a complete repeat

   edwards is going to win it.
