Couple of things
- In the shocking and tragic kind of news, Steve Irwin, the 'Crocodile Hunter' died yesterday when he had his heart pierced by a stingray's barb.
- The university says the new tailgating rules worked out OK, even if it meant folks were setting up at 6:45 a.m. It wasn't terribly crowded actually, thought I'm not sure if that was the result of a 12:30 p.m. kickoff against Western Kentucky or the new rules turning a lot of people off. The jury's out, and we'll find out more for the Colorado game.
- Another letter by Norm Weatherby, again revealing not only his thinly veiled disdain of the poor, but also his lack of compehension of American labor laws.
- I love J.T., but there are quite simply too many things to say about this column. I'll just leave it at this ... it ain't fair to criticize something you know so little about, so I'm glad he decided to visit the schools and share his experiences with everyone.

Shocking only in that it was a stingray and not a crocodile?
Seriously, Hillary, that's what I was thinking!
What part of Mr. Weatherby's (admittedly uncouth) letter demonstrates an "ignorance of American law"? I see a couple of possibilities, but I'm not sure which you were referring to.
Well shocking that he died. I just saw on CNN how incredibly rare that death is ... it went through his rib cage and punctured his heart.
The one that's most obvious to me is the fact that he's encouraging legal poor citizens to get jobs which, currently, are geared toward illegal immigrants (ones which are devoid of taxation and include daily lump sums of cash, for instance).
Though he should also be penalized for twice using 'rocket science' in his letter. I mean, it doens't take a rocket scientist to think of another term than 'rocket science' does it. It's not rocket science is it?
