-Mitt Romney Re-ignites Culture War. No word on Bin Laden.

  Slate Magazine puzzles over a bizarre Mitt Romney campaign ad that invokes Columbine.

-No jokes about President Bush's scheduled colonoscopy ( Like how it's part of the administration's continuing search for WMD's. Alright. Just that one.)

-Thanks to David Francois and Blake Sabatinelli here at ABC Action News who sat me on this blogcycle this week, took off the training wheels and gently guided this new Flashpoint blog down the information superbikeway. (With analogies like that, I'll be yanked off the web by Monday.)

Thanks also to friend and  PoHo blogger, Wayne Garcia and Tommy Duncan of Sticks of Fire who wrote an only slightly snarkey announcement of this space. Tommy, I want to party with you. 

I'm taking the weekend off, so we'll pick it up on Monday.
