did you read the speculation that V.P. Cheney is actually dead and they haven't let us know yet ? Someone quickly pointed out that Cheney (or a fabulous actor playing him) was at the SOTU address -- ROFL

No, that was Darrell Hammond! CONSPIRACY!

I'm North of Houston, and signed up for email emergency weather alerts. This morning I received the following from them:

Texas residents who come in contact with any debris from the explosion of
shuttle Comlumbia should immediately contact local authorities.

Residents warned not to pick up any fallen debris.
Debris is potentially dangerous.
