People,

So last night I unleased the fury that is the Joe Welsh solo show. Despite my grave reservations and vast amount of underpreparation the show actually came off pretty well. In fact, my only problems came when I actually took a second to think about what I was doing. Once I did that my hands would forget what their purpose was and my voice would take a a quick shortcut into "out of tune squeakland". Anywho, thank you to my friends who braved the cold to watch me make an ass of myself. And, of course, thanks to Brendo Frendo for copiously booing me.

On another note, W is now pushing to add an amendment to the Constitution banning gay marriage? Is there anyone, I mean anyone, who doesn't think this man is out of control? I feel like there are probably even members of Aryan Nation who in mid-cross burning stop for a moment to scratch their heads and say "You know, I never thought I'd say it but I think maybe he just might be going too far".

My feeling is that if you're the president and you have American troops dying in an ill-defined war being fought on two separate fronts then you should be locked in a room with a couple advisors and not be allowed out until the situation is resolved. Your aides would say "Don't worry about gay marriage or announcing the start of NASCAR races or giving the rich tax breaks, Mr President, we're on it. You just get back in there and try to get less people killed".
