On one hand, I feel sorry for Reggie Bush and where he'll be sent next year. On the other hand, I'd trade places with him because his signing bonus will be bigger than my net worth by some exponential factor.

So, I'm not feeling too sorry.

I wondered if he was a private eye but he's too homo for that!

Legally or as a matter of good taste, the word private and Robert's name may not be used together in a sentence.

If I had a scanner I'd share this cool picture I just got in the mail. It's from Iraqi war vet Hiram Lewis who is running against Sheets. In the picture he's sitting on Saddam's throne. Now, that is a clever fundraising idea.

That is, no doubt, a matter of pubic policy.
