--30-- (Sept. 28)

Gotta roundup of sorts to end the work day (roundups are great when you dial up your brain for fresh words but only get a dial tone).

*Milt Nelson of Rathdrum passes along this poem ("Poor John Kerry") from Chuck Muth's Web site:

Poor John Kerry:
He throws away someone else's medals.
He drives someone else's SUV.
He marries someone else's wife.
And he inherits someone else's money.
I think we should all vote for him to go be president............of someone else's country.

*Kootenai County Clerk Dan English recommends this "great new voter information website sponsored by the Secretary of State" here. (BTW, Dan guessed correctly that he's one of my two Demo friends, and Mike Kennedy of John Kerry's Idaho campaign guessed correctly that he was the other. Actually, I have more than just two. But I can't think of anyone else at the moment.)

*Roman Catholic Don Morgan sez Catholics, which represent 25 percent of the electorate, are tipping big time for Dubya and offers this link to back up his contention that the prez election is over here.

*From RunnersWeb.com comes news that general registration for the 2005 Ironman USA Coeur d'Alene is now closed here.
