Safe and sound in NY

Sitting on a runway in Allentown? If I'd known, I could probably have driven you to the city in less time than it took you to get there by plane.

Oh, well. Next time, call me. ;-)

While you were out having fun The boys at The Discovery Institute have developed a foreign policy, and, apparently, a shadow State Department. Here in Seattle they have latched onto an otherwise nice Somali student / restauranteur / retailer, and proclaimed him the Ambassador representing Somalia.
Their science is crap, but their PR is pure gold.
