Slacker!

I feel like a bit of a slacker. I've been so busy with life, work, internship, school, etc., that it's really cut down on my blogging. And there are so many interesting things going on. The Copyright Office is asking for comments on what to do with orphan works. The State of the Union address. Condie's and Alberto Gonzalez' approval for their Cabinet positions. The Iraq Election, for crying out loud.

To be honest, I haven't commented on the Iraq election on purpose. It is a vindication of our actions in Iraq. But I don't feel comfortable crowing about it here. It's not my victory. It's theirs. And more power to them for it.

And what news is there really to say on the Cabinet appointments? Dems don't like Ms. Rice or Mr. Gonzalez. Which is a little odd, seeing as how their appointment would have been unheard of fifty years ago. I mean, a black woman being appointed as Secretary of State? A Hispanic man as the Attorney General of the U.S.? The civil rights movement should be trumpeting this accomplishment to the skies. Maybe I'm just an Idaho farm boy, but the attacks on them both just seem wrong to me.

There are bloggers who will cover this. A few of them are featured in my blogroll. Personally, I'm thinking it's high time for an animé update. After all, it's at least three weeks late.
