What Did I Miss?
I have been sporadic with my postings lately because my dad got very sick. Sadly, he passed away on February 7. I am working things back into my routine, so I expect my posts will become more frequent now.
That said, what is happening in the world?
We got a deal with North Korea. Looks alot like the deal we had under Clinton. Looks like it was achieved by a combination of multi-party and direct, two-party talks with Kim Jong Il. Hopefully, it will work this time, but if the rest looks like the last deal, odds are this will go the same way. Unless the next Administration continues to honor the deal and the North Koreans keep their end. Big ifs.
And Iran says it will dismantle its nuclear energy programs if western nations do the same. Meanwhile, the Bush Administration is pushing hard to build new nuclear power plants, and new nuclear weapons, too.
The Congress is voting on a non-binding resolution against the surge of troops in Iraq, while the Pentagon is working out contingency plans for attacking Iran.
And Anna Nicole Smith is on every news network, all the time.
