Dear Mr Taliban, Clean Coal Crusade

Dear Mr Taliban, Hi, it's me again, giving you a heads up. It looks like paranoid Pakistan and India are going to go to war soon, so you may not have a country to operate out of. I would suggest dumping Mullah Omar and negotiating something, anything with the Karzai government, and doing it real soon. Both countries have nuclear weapons, so where you are living may soon become a vaporized hole in the earth.

But this may be a diversion on Pakistan's part, because the UN is trying to set up a commission to find out who killed Benazir Bhutto. Pakistan sure isn't trying very hard, just like OJ is looking for the killer of his ex-wife, and George Bush was looking for Osama bin Laden.

In fact, I've been thinking of selling t-shirts with the logo: I Went Searching for Osama bin Laden, but All I got was Saddam Hussein! No? Ok, how about: I Went Searching for Osama bin Laden, but All I Got was This Lousy War! Sorry, we don't have size X-Small...

The coal industry is funding millions of dollars for web sites and bloggers to support their positions on clean coal technology, or virtual coal. So, if you see other Colorado bloggers suddenly gushing over the coal industry here, you will know who is on the payroll. Maybe someone like Barry Fagin will write something, if he hasn't stopped whining about liberals and how they should just leave him alone. I'm a bit jealous, since I've wanted to be sponsored by a lobby or industry or political group or the CIA, but haven't been approached by anyone crooked yet. Maybe I should come up with a snappy name with America or Independence or Freedom in the title, then they would come to me...

It's official, by the end of next week Florida based Distribution Video Audio, which is America's last VHS distributor, will be going out of business despite having sold four million VHS tapes in the last two years. They were a large part of my life, and I will miss them. Raise your mojitos high, my friends, the old era is truly gone and we have entered the digital age. Make it one for my baby, and one more for the road.
