BACK IN THE MINNWISSIPPI, RAIN HAS HERALDED THE ARRIVAL OF ANOTHER CRAZY ROUND OF SPRING WEATHER as is making even the farmers and planters nervous.
Nervous, as in risking getting stuck in mud-soaked fields getting spring field work done, and sometimes having to be pulled out of the quagmire, tractor and all.
Even crazier: Conditions are expected to remain rather cooler than average into the weekend--as in maxima pretty much limited to the 50's and rain pretty much the rule save for some sunny conditions Saturday.

GIVEN THE ECCENTRICITIES OF LONGITUDES AND TIME DIFFERENCES PREVAILING ACROSS THE WORLD, Your Correspondent feels it best to send along to the Australian and New Zealand readers of The Exaggerator his best wishes for the ANZAC Day observance there (in fact, as I write, it's now 05h25 Friday morning in New Zealand, 03h25 in Sydney and Melbourne, 02h55 in Adelaide and 01h25 in Perth).

MEMO TO THE ZEALOTS AND TRUE BELIEVERS IN THE PALESTINIAN CAUSE VIS-A-VIS ISRAEL, all based on the rather illogical "enemy of my enemy" argument excusing anti-Zionist feelings in spite of their otherwise seeing Palestinian Arabs as "inferior mud peoples:"
How can you expect Palestinian Gaza in particular to be particularly self-sufficent in the energy department without risking suspicions of being seen as "supporting terrorism" all along? (I say this in response to the likelihood of serious power cuts in Palestinian Gaza thanks to Israel's unwillingness to supply fuel to the local power station, in reprisal for recent Palestinian missile attacks into Israeli soverign territory.
(Which, in turn, also affects sewerage and wastewater treatment facilities, as can translate into risk of epidemics for dysentery, typhoid fever, cholera and other diseases common where a lack of proper sanitation and hygiene exist.)
As well, there's also the issue of whether the Palestinian Authority has soverign jurisdiction over the waters of the Mediterranean Sea off Palestinian Gaza and out to the traditional three-mile limit offshore of the high-tide line--especially if there turns out being substantial undersea deposits of oil and natural gas extant off Palestinian Gaza.

SOMETHING WHICH THE GOP DESERVES (AND SERIOUSLY), AND WHICH YOUR CORRESPONDENT WOULD LIKE TO SEE @ their 2008 convention in the Twin Cities this fall:
Videlicet, certain delegates standing up to, and challenging, the prevailing GOP party line as has seen same (and its articles of faith) abandoning the Abraham Lincoln model and instead being closer to those of Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo and the apartheid regime in South Africa, among others tending to Fascism/Corporatism.
Especially considering the following (thanks to Brave New Films for the hat tip):
Is this convincing enough, or is the GOP secretly resorting to doublethink for fear of being "outed" by Those Meddling Bloggers as nothing less than closet Fascisti?
=============
AND ANOTHER THING FOR THE GOP TO ADDRESS when they convene @ Xcel Energy Centre:
How much is the GOP paying Fox Prolefeed Channel to keep same on air, let alone advancing the GOP's "talking points"--all the while knowing consciously of their Fascist tone and nuances?
And to what extent is the subsidy of Fox Prolefeed coming out of party funds and accounts?
