My wife talks in her sleep. She doesn't think she does, but she does. Two examples:
It's 3:45 AM. I sound asleep. My wife starts shaking my shoulder and says: "I need a shirt. I don't have a shirt to wear."
Me: "you need one now? It's 3:45 AM why do you need a shirt?"
Wife: "I don't know...zzzzzzzz"
*grrrrrrr*
It's late (I don't know what time) Nature calls. I get up, in the dark and I'm in my typical nightime attire. (Yes, I was in the altogether, simmer down) I have one hand on the doorknob to the bathroom and my wife asks me in an incredulous voice:
"WHERE are you going?"
Me: "I thought I'd do some gardening."
Wife: "What!? What are you talking about"
Me: "Nothing. I have to pee. Go back to sleep"
My snarkiness almost caused a row there. Gotta watch that. Seems Sleeping Wife (TM) has a short temper.

My brother in law is a big NASCAR fan. He's always buying matchbox cars and such for the kids. He bought Connor the #18 car (driven by Bobby Labonte).
This morning, Connor shows Mommy the car and says; "do you know who drives this car Mommy?"
Mommy: "No, who?"
Connor: "Bobby the Bunny"
I love being a Dad.
A tunnel has been found beneath the US/Canadian border. Whoever built this thing has some serious resources. The whole thing is reinforce w/ concrete. No wonder they watched it for 8 months. Drugs? People? I gravitate towards the former and the latter as a side business. Coyotes could very easily get someone across the border who ought not to be. I doubt we'll ever hear much more about this one.
Submitted without comment as none is necessary.
USA WEEKEND Magazine : "'You can read our movie several ways,' says screenwriter David Koepp. 'It could be straight 9/11 paranoia. Or it could be about how U.S. military interventionism abroad is doomed by insurgency , just the way an alien invasion might be.' "
Where's the Newt? Even the NYT Op-Ed page is climbing down from the Plame story. Reading this one thing occured to me. Could it be that Fitzgerald is protecting Plame? I had an epiphany when reading this article. Could Wilson have been citing a document he never saw (the forgeries) because he had seen it? If I have my facts straight, Wilson claims the names and dates were wrong on the invoice for the purchase of Uranium from Niger. He backed down later and said he never saw the forgery. He wasn't cleared to see it. His wife is an analyst in WMD proliferation. Just the kind of person who has access to such a document. Could she have shown it to him to bolster his case? He let it slip that he had seen it and realized that he would be incriminating his wife in a federal crime. Namely, showing classified information to someone who is not cleared. This one is still murky, and I'm not sure about my speculation but it is possible. We'll have to see...
Daniel Pipes talks about Weak Brits, Tough French . He rightly points out that France is able to get away with things that no other country can do. How? I don't know. Perhaps it's because they are France and people assign to them some patina of respectablity because of their mythically great history of diplomacy. I like the French people. I've lived there, gone to school there and travelled there a number of times. However, they always elect the most wiley cagey, backstabbing, self-serving bastards. I wish we had elected leaders who were as nakedly advancing their own nation's interests. Hell, Bush is a piker compared to Chirac on that front. Even Pat Buchannan pales in comparison.
Bernard Golberg has a book about the 100 people screwing up America. Courtesy of Amazon, here's the list (bonus for my reader[s] are my ever-insightful comments) Michael Moore Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. He should be deported to the reddest of red states for all eternity. Arthur Sulzberger I can't decide if he's screwing up the NYT (and to a lesser degree, America) out of sheer cluelessness or mendacity. I'll assume the former. Given his age, he won't be around to screw either one up for much longer. Ted Kennedy How is this drunken zeppelin still alive? He must have an absolutely bulletproof liver. The only way to prevent the Massholes from re-electing this thing is for him to die. Even then they'd probably elect him. Ted Kennedy's cars have killed more people than the average American's guns. Jesse Jackson Thankfully, Jesse isn't what he used to be. Ever since the scandal with his mistress, he's been sidelined. He still uses his s...
Bernie's List Part 2 Noam Chomsky MIT professor, linguist and barking moonbat. Chomsky is totally insane which explains his popularity among leftists. He blames every evil in the world on America. Dan Rather Gunga Dan. Has had a personal vendetta against the Bush family when 41 outed him for his hissy fit when he walked off the air because a sporting event cut into his broadcast. Hoisted by his own petard when he tried to unseat the President w/ the fake TANG documents. Good riddance. Andrew Heyward President of CBS. 'nuff said. Mary Mapes Barking moonbat and part of the Rather team. Waged a 10 year campaign to try and smear 43. Instrumental in ending Rather's career (for that we thank her) as well as destroying her own. Ted Rall America hating cartoonist. Draws racist cartoons of Condi Rice and Colin Powell. John Edwards Empty headed and thankfully, unemployed. Did far more damage as a trial lawyer than he does now. AKA "the Breck girl" Al Sharpton ...
