To protest the Russian invasion of Georgia, American ethanol subsidies, and the city of Austin's refusal to adopt a rational water policy, I plan to boycott the Olympics this year. If I watch one minute of coverage, it will only be because I stumble while walking through the den when my wife has it on, and I twist my ankle pretty badly, so badly that I can't get up for a couple of minutes, during which time I have to watch television to take my mind off the pain, and there aren't commercials on at the time.
Judging from my site traffic, though, many of you plan to spend the next two weeks watching NBC's wussified coverage. That's OK; I don't think any less of you for supporting armed agression against an American ally or our environment-wrecking, hunger-inducing corn boondoggle. Enjoy.
Seriously, I can't compete with the Olympics, so blogging will be light for the next couple of weeks.
