Shameless Self-Promotion

This Week in Steve

This is taking shameless self-promotion on NLT to the outer limit, but I've been lax in cross-posting stuff lately.  This week began in Houston (the blowout preventer in the photo is the red thing on the left) and ended in California (where I am now), with two days in Washington in between.  

Let's see--what happened this week?  Oh yeah, we bagged a bad guy, which brought out the worst in Noam Chomsky (what a surprise), but also provided yet another look back at Churchill's The River War, and an erroneous first guess on GoogleEarth on the location of Abbottabad's most famous residential address, and an observation about Churchill's definition of a fanatic as someone who can't change their mind and won't change the subject.

Meanwhile, while Obama is enjoying his justly deserved victory lap, the economy continues to look very ominous for us and for him, and despite the sharp break in oil prices late in the week, our silliness about energy production here at home continues.

Happy mother's day, have a great week.  I'm heading out to the beach.

Don't sweat your bad guess on Obama's hideout.

Remember this?

and, besides, it's probably not half as embarrassing as your declaration that the days of "offshore oil spills were likely a thing of the past."
