U.S. CONCERN
NBC: Bush will step up role in Mideast peace

You'd think they could get this peace process going already because this 'being in the news everyday thing' is getting pretty stale and redundant. Also, I can't be the only sentient being on the planet who's so sick of hearing about Busch he's burned the neighbor's shrubbery.

Jet lag brain drain
WashPost: Study finds memory may be impaired

If you routinely cross 7 times zones in one trip, make many of these trips and never get any rest in between them, you should be concerned... just like all the other people who've had prolonged sleep deprivation with no rest. Moron scientists. They must be going for a grant.

Out with a bang?
Final �Sopranos� leaves just 1 character snuffed

Actually, they lied. Every member of the Sporanos cast has been sent packing. That way they can now take a successful TV franchise and turn it to shit - just because they're HBO.

Bush tax cut pares government role
� WashPost: Critics say danger ahead

I read another article on how pissed off the Moderate Conservative Republican's are at Busch because of how far to the right he's gone since being elected - because of how far to the right past his cries of "I'm a compassionate conservative! I'm a compassionate conservative! Elect me! I'm a compassionate conservative!" he's gone. This proposal will shrink domestic spending to it's lowest level since the end of W.W.II. Ever complain about all the damn road construction? Well don't worry, you can now complain about crumbling roads... and unemployment.

P&G buys Clairol from Bristol-Myers
� Nearly $5 billion for hair-care brand

The board of Procter & Gamble is getting older and they really wanted a life time supply of Grecian Hair Formula for Men�.

�Normal� hurricane season planned

Also in Major news, it is expected that it will snow this winter in the Rockies. They also expect it to rain by next spring.

Iverson is the answer for 76ers
� Celizic: Title, not stats, now drive star

I am the answer for the 75ers. johnpowers, "No you can't drive. You killed Mrs. Faulk last year and you didn't even notice. Now drink your ovaltine." 75ers, "Damn Kids"

� �Scoop�: Blake lawyer well-connected
How strange, you mean he didn't just hire a lawyer with out a clue?

� 50,000 more recalls for Ford Explorer
More tire woes. Most of the country would drive their SUV's if they had a tendency to explode on 1 out of a million people. "Yeah, but I feel SAFE higher up than everyone else." "yeah but you're killing the environment you Mc Consumer self centered sack of American hamburger."

� WSJ: Web concert ticket �presales�
No more sleeping outside the ticket booth waiting for your N-Sync tickets. Now you can sleep in front of your computer screen and see 'Transaction Error - Try again later' messages and no one will be around to hear you cry. I think I like this new technology.

� Hip duds for the well-dressed penguin
George Bush in a tux wishing he never said anything about his alcoholicness standing at the wet bar? Clinton the next time we see him on Camera?

� WashPost: Myth of a Bush martyr
Not Mr. Compassionate Extreme Right Wing Conservative himself as the martyr... It turns out that a mapmaker posted a sensitive map of a caribou calving area that was smack dab in the middle of where Secretary of the Interior Norton wants to drill in the Arctic. So the map maker was fired because he wasn't supposed to be posting anything...

� �Son�s Room� takes top Cannes prize
�The Son�s Room", Italian director Nanni Moretti�s stirring account of a family whose happy life is shattered by the death of a teen-age son, won the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival on Sunday. The festival�s second-highest honor went to "The Piano Teacher," Austrian director Michael Haneke�s dark tale of a music instructor seduced by a student. Now call me stupid, but if you combine these two movies, you get the first year of Beverly Hills 90210 - don't you?

� johnpowers has no dirty laundry.
Amazingly there is no dirty laundry in the home of johnpowers. Not even an old bag stuck in the back of a closet because none of that stuff is ever worn.

� johnpowers not hungover or tired.
No hangover, no sleep depravation, no mystery Monday morning illness. johnpowers feels great after a restful relaxing weekend. He didn't do everything he wanted to or intended, but he feels great for once.
