Here We Go!
DENVER — Warning to Southern delegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver this August: it will be a no-fry zone.
As part of the effort to make the August 25-28 convention the greenest ever, the Democrats’ guidelines for food catering include one that strikes at the heart of Southern cuisine: no fried food.
No fried chicken. No fried catfish. No fried green tomatoes. No fried okra. No fried anything.
In promoting healthy eating habits, the Democratic guidelines say every meal should be nutritious and include “at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, purple/blue and white.”
“It’s the new patriotism,” says Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper, the driving force behind the greening of the Democratic convention.

Believe It...or Not
Richard Danzig, who served as Navy Secretary under President Clinton and is tipped to become National Security Adviser in an Obama White House, told a major foreign policy conference in Washington that the future of US strategy in the war on terrorism should follow a lesson from the pages of Winnie the Pooh, which can be shortened to: if it is causing you too much pain, try something else.
Mr Danzig told the Centre for New American Security: “Winnie the Pooh seems to me to be a fundamental text on national security.”

Back in the Day-Corky Carroll
Today I was out surfing with my neighbor, the Iguana, at my favorite local spot. A guy paddled out that we have known for a long time that I will leave unnamed at this time.
The deal with this dude is that he is lost "in the day." He is one of those dudes who is constantly bringing up things from the far gone past and ends just about everything he says with, "in the day."
He is a retro freak. He drives an old Chevy Nomad station wagon and only rides vintage boards from the mid-'60s or older. Today he came out on his latest "classic" tanker that he just finished restoring. Naturally he spent 10 minutes telling us how this was such an amazing board back "in the day." Looked like a big heavy blob to me..Full article
