Pot Shots

Obviously, I've been on a blogging hiatus, despite deep thoughts I wanted to share about marching to the Capitol in Washington on Martin Luther King Day and then Coretta Scott King's triumphant homegoing. My friend Peggy's Newfoundland, Baby, Charter's sister and Lilo's aunt, won big yesterday at Westminster. And, oh yes, remind me to tell you about senior diet cokes.

But this I can't let pass. The vice president of the United States of America, while out enjoying the rich man's sport of quail hunting on vast private ranches, shot a fellow hunter. Fortunately, the guy is okay. Cheney, on the other hand, has made himself fodder for delighted stand-up comedians everywhere. Here's a nice sampling put together by our friends at the AP: TV Joke Writers Take Shots at Cheney.
