I’m feeling better now. I just had a long conversation with my favorite Republican, a very intelligent and politically aware person. He thinks that there’s going to be a lot of shit happening in the next four years (would happen no matter what) and the Republicans were going to have to wear all of it. He thinks people will be so pissed off that the country will swing back to the Democrats next time around. Of course he’s also the one that predicted Kerry would win big.

Fist time through writing this, I typed “potically” instead of “politically.”

This morning I was pleased to see that someone had left the Pioneer Press sports page in the stall so I had something to read during my morning constitutional. I glanced over the twelve pages of bemoaning the vikings ass whipping and other football news and then found an article about Latrell Sprewell’s contract problems with the Wolves. Without going into the details of the disagreement (I can never keep this contact negotiation crap straight) I’ll just tell you that he’s making 14.6 million dollars this year and is looking for a long term contract. He’s a great player, but he’s thirty-four years old and injury prone. But never mind that, what really got to me was that he made some statement to the effect that he “had a family to feed.” Geez, Spree….out of touch with reality are we?
