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.
