On cold January days, post holidays and before baseball season, there's not a lot of news.
Today is different. Heath Ledger has died.I'm not attached to celebrities and their lives per say, but this man brought Ennis Del Mar to life and made a gay love story entertaining and tragic and more importantly- mainstream.
In more local news, Matt Blunt, Worst Governor in the US is not seeking a second term. No reason is given for now, none other than he's "already accomplished" what he sent out to do in his first term. But his first term is a disaster, he's already begun a campaign for reelection so this means one thing: Scandal.
I hope its a raucous sex tape, maybe some porn. This man is a born again, holier-than-thou nutcase so while I sincerely hope he is not ill or experiencing a family tragedy, I'm thrilled at the prospect of him being shamed and run from office. He's balanced our state budget on the backs of disabled children and poor families, so its his turn to feel a little pain.
January 2009 was already promising to be joyous with the inauguration of some president not named Bush and now, almost as thrilling- inauguration of of a MO governor not named Blunt.
RIP Heath Ledger. Happy retirement and please go away, Matt Blunt.
