Weekly Rants, Raves, and Whatever

This weeks Rants, etc, etc, is being published on Friday rather than Saturday because I have to work tomorrow morning. (Boo!)

*How come the Democrats are OK with Zarqawi and Al Queda winning in Iraq but are unhappy with the United States winning? Probably preoccupied with the threat Judge Alito poses to the employment of all those abortion providers out there. After all, first things first!

*The St. Louis Blues broke an 11-game losing streak with a victory over Columbus last night. Unfortunately, it was the PeeWee League team in Columbus that the BlueNote beat up on! (Just kidding, just kidding)

*The Arizona Cardinals come to the Jones Dome in St. Louis this Sunday to play the Rams. I know the Big Red are bad, but the sight of that white helmet with the "ornery bird" on it brings back a lot of gridiron memories, most of them painful. I even have a set of drinking glasses with the Cardinals logo on them that date back to the 1960s. Man, talk about a glutton for punishment.

*Bought a new Craftsman reciprocating saw from Sears that can cut through just about anything. One note of caution: make sure what you're demolishing isn't a load-bearing wall!

*St. Louis is working hard to get a new bridge built across the Mississippi River connecting the Gateway City to the nudie bars on the East Side (Illinois). Who says the movers and shakers (bad pun) in this town aren't civic-minded?

*Is there a chinchilla doctor in the house? Seriously.

Got to see the Rams game on Sunday, courtesy tickets that Froggiegirl won at work. Kurt Warner looked great, too bad I can't say the same for the Rams. I don't know what Vitt was thinking with settling for a field goal at the end of the game.

Is it baseball season yet?
