This just in . . .
President Bush has eased clean air rules.

Utilities, refineries and manufacturers will not have to install anti-pollution equipment when they modernize their plants. Not to worry. Head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Christie Whitman, says the new rules will encourage emissions reductions by giving company operators greater flexibility. Hmm? On the other hand, environmental defense lawyer,Vickie Patton, said the changes amount to, "A sweeping and unprecedented erosion of state and local power to protect the public health from air pollution."


I kid you not . . .

Scientists are thinking about implanting stem cells from a human embryo into a mouse embryo. I understand they plan to name it, Mr. Half and Half, a.k.a.; Mickey the mouse.


Say what? . . .

Arguing bridge partners = worthless doubleton.

Whiners blame everyone for their plight; save one.


Fore-gone conclusion . . .

Should female members be allowed at the Augusta National Golf Club? Hmmm? Does Denise Austin like to exercise?


Ooops . . .

I'm worried about Charlton Heston. Yesterday at a pro-gun rally, he held up a bow and arrow and said, ...."From my cold dead toes."
