It must be a sign of how much the Mexican immigrants are influencing our country, when we have an election on Cinco de Mayo. The downside is that the bars will probably not be open until after the election. Sorry John, if you want to drink, you’ll have to head down to OCMD.
Big shout out to Kavips who was moderated up as a recommended diary with the “Halliburton’s Very Dark Secret” entry. This is a nice little feat. Congrats kavips. Oh and a nice bit of reportage. This also gave me some smackdown ammo with our newest commenter, Chris.
Tommywonk brings us the good news on the progress that we are making on getting clean energy here in Delaware. Then he has a post on how Delmarva is playing hardball to get what they want. Tommy, thanks for your leadership on this.
Mike Protack also has a post up in favor of wind power and against Delmarva’s stupidity.
Over at DWA, Mike Matthews has dug himself a hole during his trip to Ireland. Who knew that the phone company would charge even when the person you are calling refuses to take your call… Either way, there was a lot of cross-posting of his call for help from Jason and Nancy (nice montage). Looks like we have mostly dug him out, but at what cost?
Speaking of Nancy, she has some nice coverage of the freeway blogger and his impeach signs. Good stuff.
The jolly green blogger, Dana, has a screed on how the Democrats are a bunch of sissys for not just letting the money run out for Iraq. I like Jason’s point. We wouldn’t even be in this position if the greens hadn’t chosen idealism over pragmatism. Hope you love your President, Dana. You picked him.
On a lighter note, Mike Mahaffie is geeking out on his GIS conference. I can relate. I may even try to squeeze in a geocache this weekend in honor of your geekiness.
Speaking of geeking out, Duffy scooped Hube on some cartoon cum movie character. Is this the same Ironman that smoked Bakersfield?
Over at Gazizza, Paul Smith tries to prove that not only is he weird, but he is a hopeless romantic (unless you make his glasses dirty, then he becomes Ironman).
Kilroy has a post about a complete outrage. There is a bill in the house to require high schools to report the names of all graduates to the house. Do we really have time for this crap, but not to apologize for slavery?
Over at JttR, Ryan tries to explain why he was hatin’ on the Enlightenment last week. I still don’t buy it.
Hopefully, we’ll see a return of First State Politics next week, as Dave finishes his final push for winning back the 41st. Celia the Blogmistress has a post about why Dave might not rest until Monday. She’s the bloggiest.
Get out and enjoy the weather this weekend. Looks like it will be a great one.
