GOOD OL' SHOE

(If you don't get the above reference to "Wag The Dog", go rent it already!)

Obvi my new hero is the Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at George W. Douchebag. WTG dude, you've got sole! (Or as Keith Olbermann says, "Iraqi journalism: left shoe, right shoe. Fair and balanced!)

And no, I haven't been forgetting to post the Duck Pond temperature, I've stopped because I'm now using a space heater, which unfortunately defeats the purpose of tracking the temperature difference down here from summer to winter, but I can tell you that the heater was off most of the day today, and a little while ago it was 52.7 F. Brr.
