Got no excuse other than the endorphins, but I’m riding high and gingerly in the saddle today. The Bride kicked me out of the house this morning…

Did you know that drinking two glasses of Gatorade can relieve headache pain almost immediately — without the unpleasant side effects caused by traditional “pain relievers.”

Before you head to the drugstore for a high-priced inhaler filled with mysterious chemicals, try chewing on a couple of curiously strong Altoids peppermints. They’ll clear up your stuffed nose.

Gonna Hit The Fan

From AP News:

When the president was asked at a Rose Garden question-and-answer session [today] whether the anthem should be sung in Spanish, he replied: “I think the national anthem ought to be sung in English, and I think people who want to be a citizen of this country ought to learn English and they ought to learn to sing the national anthem in English.”

He made his remarks on the matters during a wide-ranging briefing with reporters.

“I think people who want to be citizens of this country ought to learn English,” Bush said.

Well, that pretty much ends the idea of debating the issues without emotion.  Isn’t the president supposed to be a model for calm rhetoric?

(And how much do you want to bet the While House will be backpedalling on this very soon and very hard?)

No matter what side of the immigration debate you’re on, we can pretty much all agree on this: the shit’s gonna hit the fan now.
