Updated "America Under Osama" in the PORK BARREL. Now... 500% more goofy pix... many, many more links to "dubya's dirty tricks" and "hair on fire" websites... check it out... (As I write this, around 2:45 in the ayem, Dan Rather's breathlessly reporting on CBS that the keys to the country are being handed over to the Iraqis, two days earlier than expected. "Excuse me, Mr. Bremer, is something burning?" "Why, no, that's the stink of democracy, citizen.")

Updated the navigation system throughout the site... like the new, improved NavBar located at the top of all site specific pages... and the deletion of underlined text links; words in boldface now designate clickable links. Revamped the Front Door page. Minor touchups on all pages. Added some pix of the reclusive Uncle Roy (click here to go there)... and more junk in the PORK BARREL. (What's a mother to do? The PORK BARREL's always screaming, "Feed me! Feed me! Feed me!")
