Today
Daily Update:
Bush in bicycle mishap while attending G8 conference.
And the Idaho Groene story seems to be resolving in a most shocking conclusion.
On a lighter international note, seems the food is at issue at the grand worldly conference.
~~~~~~~~~~
Finally, definitive proof that liberals are just plain mean.
Wait until you see how a liberal Blogger tore into The Wise I for the most innocent of stories about New York and a small bag.
~~~~~
Here's some miscellany.
First, a new show on Animal Planet near and dear to mine heart.
And a funny for yon fellows: what women say and what it all means.
~~~~~~
Some comments on "Dancing with the Stars", "The Bag" and the first defense of Joran Van Der Sloot that I've seen yet.
I think it's kind of lame.

Bush Good/Bad at G8 Conference
Well, he's not use to driving his bike on the wrong side of the road, of course. So Bush hits a policeman while riding his bike, in the rain no less!
Below, his response to the silly European questions about Iraq.
From the AP:
GLENEAGLES, Scotland (AP) - President Bush collided with a local police officer and fell during a bike ride on the grounds of the Gleneagles golf resort while attending a meeting of world leaders Wednesday. Bush suffered scrapes on his hands and arms that required bandages by the White House physician, said White House spokesman Scott McClellan.
The police officer was taken to a local hospital as a precaution, McClellan said. The extent of the officer's injuries was not known, but he might have an ankle injury, the spokesman said.
It was raining lightly at the time.
The officer was on a security detail. He is a member of the police department of Strathclyde, a nearby town, McClellan said.
The president was concerned about the officer's condition, and talked with him for some time after the collision, McClellan said. The president also asked White House physician Richard Tubb to monitor the officer's condition at the hospital.
The fall did not affect the president's schedule. Dressed in a tuxedo, he attended a dinner hosted by Queen Elizabeth at the annual Group of Eight economic summit. He showed no signs of distress.
Joseph Duncan Sole Perpetrator?
Of all the scenarios that come to mind about that Idaho horrific murder, the fact that Joseph Duncan, the convicted sexual predator who was found with little Shasta Groene, did the entire crime by HIMSELF would never have come to my mind.
Three people bludgeoned to death and two live children spirited off into the night? All done by one guy? A weird guy, yes, but only one person.
Yet the Idaho police are leaking all over the place and this, for now, seems to be Shasta's story.
My God. One human being, speculated to have been stalking that family, possibly from a nearby campground.
The guy's a Blogger, oddly, and his Blog is full of strange stuff.
Not to mention having already spent sixteen years in jail for a rape and having been charged with a recent child molestation.
One human being did all of this.
I'm stunned.
Good. At least they speak English.
The Great International Food Flap
Jack Straw makes fun of Scottish Haggis and Jacques Chirac makes fun of English food in general.
Although they regularly eat snails in France and take great pride in this, Chirac chooses to mock English food, which is, face it folks, pretty bad.
Then he goes on to say that only food from Finland was worse. Two members of the committee choosing the site for the 2012, in which Paris was a contender, are from Finland.
Now I'm not saying anything here. Just reporting the facts.
Then Jack Straw, a British politico adds to the flap by saying that Chirac was right, Scottish haggis were awful.
Well they're made with pig guts after all.
Sometimes it's not the great meetings by the grand poobahs and what they say in their crafted speeches that affect the world. Sometimes it's what they say when no one's listening.
Tomorrow
It's time for gossip and speculation.
We've Paula Abdul and the fake nails. The REAL truth about Russell Crowe and the telephone.
And a shocking report about Princess Di and JFK that I don't believe for a minute.

In the Delaware post this week we review a Bethany Beach rib joint called "Bethany Blues".
So what, exactly, are St. Louis ribs?

Smile at this pic of the week.
