WASHINGTON, May 31 After vowing to steer a greater share of antiterrorism money to the highest-risk communities, Department of Homeland Security officials on Wednesday announced 2006 grants that slashed money for New York and Washington 40 percent, while other cities including Omaha and Louisville, Ky., got a surge of new dollars.
Homeland security officials said the grants were a result of a more sophisticated evaluation process

I think it's more a case of our being more accurate. Certainly, if I were ever wrong about something, I would be willing to apologize.

Quite all right. Been busy enjoying my weekend. My girls fly out on Wednesday for MN (two months), so I may be online a bit more during the evenings/weekends.

I don't believe you. You're not a bit sorry. You are a sterling example of a fine old-fshioned gentleman, and you are very far from being a specimen of sorry, or a sorry specimen.
Mark Twain said, "The highest perfection of politeness is only a beautiful edifice, built, from the base to the dome, of graceful and gilded forms of charitable and unselfish lying."
An apology is a graceful act, and art. But saying "I'm sorry" is an admission of a deficiency.

Hey, Irish! Are you familiar with
Dave Barry?

My favorite Dave Barry is when he posts and analyzes BAD POP LYRICS!

Neil Diamond's "I Am, I Said" comes to mind : )
To: stephenjohnbanker
written and recorded by Neil Diamond
L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time
And the feeling is 'lay back'
Palm trees grow, and rents are low
But you know I keep thinkin' about
Making my way back
Well I'm New York City born and raised
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores
L.A.'s fine, but it ain't home
New York's home, but it ain't mine no more
"I am," I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair
"I am," I cried
"I am," said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still
Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of bein' a king
And then became one
Well except for the names and a few other changes
If you talk about me, the story's the same one
But I got an emptiness deep inside
And I've tried, but it won't let me go
And I'm not a man who likes to swear
But I never cared for the sound of being alone
"I am," I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair
"I am," I cried
"I am," said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still
