It’s been a little busy as of late… around the world and around the Colborne household. I will point out that this last weekend was the first real weekend I’ve had in a month - I actually was able to stay home, not work, and actually get a little housecleaning done. This was a big deal, believe me.

So, let’s see here… what stories are being played out?

Don Imus was fired. Here’s why finding a replacement may be difficult (via WSJ). Also, I can’t possibly agree more with Jason Whitlock on this, and he says pretty much everything that I think needs to be said about this issue better than I most certainly can.

A big shooting at Virginia Tech - expect this to be on the news for a while. Here is a pretty good site detailing everything that’s going on over there. Also, don’t be surprised if you start seeing the usual “we must ban guns” talk, along with the “imagine if everyone was armed” talk. In fact, you can get a fair amount of both, between the blog posting and the comments, here. Also, Wikipedia is maintaining an entry on the shootings here.

A good friend of mine has started a blog called Arab Linguist. Check out the article about Turkish toilets.
