Milestones

Boned Jello

Just as I was about to remind you of a very significant American milestone    occurring on January 4, 2011, El Jefe reminded me of another.  So this is a two-fer.  First mine.


The 112th Congress will be the first in 64 years (JFK's  first term as a Representative from Massachusetts) that not a single member of that family will be seated.  None.  All gone.  We will be serving free champagne on 4 January, so be here or drink beer.

Now Jeff's.

This coming year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address occur on the same day. 

It is an ironic juxtaposition of events; one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, while the other involves a groundhog.
