The murder rate in Cincinnati is on record pace this year. Three weeks to go until 2007 and already 79 people have been killed, including a 17 year old yesterday.
Maybe we need to work on getting the guns off the streets. Maybe it’s time to outlaw the NRA and it’s gun pandering lobby just like we’ve outlawed smoking.
Maybe if there were fewer guns...harder to get...harder to own...killing wouldn’t be the sport that it has obviously become.

20 years and you get a lousy polo shirt....that’s Walmart’s answer to improving the lives of its workers. Walmart has apparently instituted an “Associate First” program designed to make its employees feel special, and to combat the growing number of disgruntled workers picketing the stores...
I’ve got a great idea...why not raise salaries above third world levels, so Walmart employees can feed their families..
*****
Whoa! Two days before he resigned, Donald Rumsfeld wrote a memo saying change in strategy was needed in Iraq.
Now if only Dubya would buy a clue. He’s already rejecting the Baker-Hamilton recommendations and they’re not due to be released until later this week.
*****
Double whoa! Colin Powell says Iraq is a civil war....nice to see the general find his balls and comment, but is anybody listening to him these days.
*****
Condi says mistakes were made in Iraq, but she won’t talk about it until after she leaves office.
****
Smoking ban goes into affect in Ohio on Thursday...Does that mean that employees will have to get into their cars and drive off company grounds in order to legally light up? Do same employees have to clock out first? Inquiring minds want to know?
And now that smoking has been outlawed in the name of healthiness....can overeating and obesity be next?
Is a visit from the weight police be just around the corner?
