Capt. America is Buried, Conrad Black Lives

-
Marvel Comics / APWhen I mentioned Capt. America was dead, an outpouring of interest came on this little blog. Now that he's being buried, does the nation care? They seemed to care then, but now?

I'm heading to the Taste of Chicago. If you see me, I'm there to eat. No paper selling today.

The News
Barry Bonds is trying to beat Hank Aaron's homerun record.

Scum Conrad Black's jury is thinking.

Tuesday, January 30, 2007 10:42 p.m. Finally home. Just had dinner. Had to hit the store and grab some food. Papers barely sold, and my socks weren't enough. All wet.

He was slow, and flirted too much and too long with every short skirt heading to the western suburbs. He says the boss thought he was taking money on the sly, but who knows? It is pretty cheap to steal train fares. What's Bush got to with the train anyway? Clinton, same thing. Nothing. Maybe Daley, but it isn't the mayor's fault Jim's brain is stuck in high school.
