Which leaves us at 51 Democrat senators, 49 Republicans, although it could be as bad as 53-47. I've still got my fingers crossed that something big will happen and surprise everyone. Barney Frank or Boxer losing would be good. Either way, it puts Obama's legislative reign of terror to an end. Now we get to see his presidential abuse-of-power side. Woohoo!
Addendum: And unfortunately I think Jerry Brown might win governor of California. Do I care because someone of a different political stripe won? No, I care because I live the next state over, and the same idiots that elect this trash are the first ones to leave after they make a mess of their own state. If they kept their mistakes in their own state, this wouldn't be so bad, but they're electing Jerry Freakin' Brown(via iowntheworld.com)...

This makes me sad. Who's the newest police chief of a violence-plagued Mexican city? A cute 20 year old college student, because no one else wanted the job. Maybe they heard what happens to city officials in Mexico. Yikes.
Joe Paterno says that to avoid the injuries we're seeing in football today, we should take away the facemask because it's a weapon. He didn't play with a facemask, so why should anyone today? Why do we have facemasks? Well, I have sort of a good story about that. My Biology teacher in high school was on one of the championship Oklahoma teams in the fifties and he was always telling us stories about how it was. Way back when, facemasks were only for players who had an injury to the face, like a broken nose. He told us one story where someone put an elbow to his face and busted his nose. He came back to the bench and got a helmet with a facemask, but his nose was bleeding too bad to go back in. So what did they do? They shoved junior-sized tampons up his nose. Apparently it was better than using gauze or something that couldn't be pulled out easily. Also, necessity is the mother of invention or something. As for Joe Pa's idea, I would agree, but I would go a step further, and I've been annoying people about this for years. Take away the helmet and the pads too. You can make a case that you should always have helmets (although football players have been using them as weapons for years) but I still don't know where having such huge pads came from. You would think that in a tough sport like football, you would laugh at someone who wasn't tough enough to go out there and play without all that stuff. But it started somewhere, and each year they just got more and more padding put on until they got to where they are now, using themselves as human missiles and then complaining about it.
