Not A Whole Lot Going Down...

Unless you want to read about:

A guy who was a worker at a nuke cleanup site was arrested after (he thought) selling uranium-enrichment equipment to a Frenchie- who was actually an undercover FBI agent...

Or another person who tried coming from China to America the hard way (and the dead way)- in the wheelwell of a United Airlines 747 passenger jet...

And an appeals court took the Veteran's Administration to task for the VA's treatment or Agent Orange patients (Vietnam vets mostly). The court ordered retroactive payments for victims (Huzzah!!!)...

A Navajo tribe in New Mexico wants to build a heavily-emission-controlled coal-fired electrical generating plant on their Nation. Some of the Tribe object to suffering any coal-fired plant emissions for health and environmental reasons- and suggest non-polluting (wind-solar) methods of producting power. Hey- at least it's not a casino...

Bush's Folly a.k.a. the "War" in Iraq. Three British soldiers sacrificed their lives along with 2 Americans Thursday- and the American death toll in this fiasco is now 3630.

Wesley Crusher- known in real-life as Wil Wheaton- who has a blog of his own. Great inside stuff on my fave sci-fi series of all-time: ST: TNG and Wil says it like he sees it regarding the terror threat as well (Thanx for the heads-up XO!)...

Today's weather here in Metro K.C.- which will continue being pretty damn nice with temps in the 80's and a chance of pop-up showers and/or thunderstorms during the afternoon heat...
