Misguided "Justice"
A grandmother from Rockville, IN, Sally Harpold, was recently arrested for violating the state's laws against the purchase of more than 3.0 grams of pseudoephedrine in less than 7 days. That violation occurred because she purchased a box of 24 Zyrtec-D tablets for her sick daughter, then six days later purchased a 36-count box of Mucinex-D for her husband and herself.

New "Trek" scores more than just big box office numbers
Over the weekend my lovely bride-to-be and I had the great pleasure of taking in the new Star Trek movie. As you know we weren't alone. Trek won the weekend with a whopping $79 million in receipts. Now don't worry...I'm not going to give away any major plot points...but I will tell you that this time a movie really has lived up to the hype.

Carrie Prejean, please go away.
Apparently the story that refuses to die has grown another head. Carrie Prejean, the current Miss California who became involved in an insipid, semi-philosophical slap-fight with annoying celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, may soon lose her crown. And no, in case you were wondering, it has nothing at all to do with her views on gay marriage.

One step closer to Chicken-Littledom
Interesting news over the weekend from Mexico. Swine flu, they say, has ceased to spread. In what by far has been the hardest-hit country, reporting the lion's share of fatal cases, the "impending pandemic" is over just weeks after it began.

100 Days...And?
So here we are, 100 days into Barack Obama's presidency. All day long we're bound to be inundated with politicians and pundits who will break down this period largely along party lines. We're used to it.

Won't somebody think of the rich???
It seems that we've all been terribly self-centered, you know. According to an anonymous letter printed in Conde-Nast's "Portfolio," you and I are guilty of gross insensitivity toward this country's Big Bankers.

Prosecuting torture
Interesting. Just a little while ago President Obama left the door open to criminal prosecution of the architects of President Bush's policies allowing torture during CIA investigations.

Torture is fine...it's words that are dangerous
So last week President Obama released a slew of Bush-era memos related to our tactics used in "questioning" terror suspects. These are the famous so-called "torture" memos that outline the use of insects, dogs, "physical discomfort," waterboarding and other methods that have been decried as torturous and, just as importantly, ineffective in providing useful information about terrorist tactics or plots.

Nancy Grace must just love this.
I must be weird. That may not come as news to you, but increasingly often I'm coming to the conclusion that there's something wrong with me. See I've not spent more than about 5 minutes following the latest cute, little white girl tragedy on CNN. They've given us hours of coverage, but 5 minutes so far is all I've been able to stomach.

B...b...but we just gave you a BAILOUT!
In one of the most crass actions yet taken by a financial institution during the blooming economic crisis, the Bank of America has decided to raise interest rates, without reason or warning, on up to four million cardholders. So what, you may ask, did these cardholders do to earn themselves up to a 50% increase in their ostensibly fixed interest rate? Nothing.

Time to take the pirates head on.
I can't help but think that we're doing ourselves a great disservice right now. As we speak we're involved in negotiations for the return of Captain Richard Phillips...negotiations with a group of Somali pirates carrying automatic weapons.
