For those of you wondering how the new government in Nigeria is working, here's a good article, from AP of all places:
Nigeria's new leader faces uncertainties
Cinching the corn belt.
If you're interested in food issues -- such as the choice between feeding the world or creating subsidies for ethanol and corn syrup for the all-American environmentally unsound and physically unhealthy lifestyle -- you might want to keep an eye on the current farm bill negotiations.
Here's a good mini resource for contacting your elected representatives.
My kind of blonde joke.
A lawyer and a blonde woman are sitting next to each other on a long flight. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a game. The blonde just wants to take a nap, so she politely declines.
The lawyer persists: "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5; you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I'll pay you $500."
This catches the blonde's attention; to keep him quiet, she agrees to play.
The lawyer asks the first question: "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"
The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a five-dollar bill and hands it to the lawyer.
Now, it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer: "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?" The lawyer uses his laptop to search references. He uses the Air phone; he surfs the Web and e-mails his smartest friends, all to no avail.
After an hour of searching, he gives up. He wakes the blonde and hands her $500. Desperate to know the answer to her riddle, he asks: "Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"
The blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5 and goes back to sleep.
