"Subject: State of the Union"

I don't usually just repost emails, but here....

"This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address fall on the same day. As Air America Radio pointed out, "It is an ironic juxtaposition: One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, and the other involves a groundhog.""

A couple of things I do note... looking at the photographers on the floor of the Congress, they are correctly dressed. We as professionals may be working like squirrels, but there are times when we make sure to dress appropriately.

Following the recent passing of Chief Van Hoy, at his service I may have been walking, sitting, standing and kneeling like an Episcopalian, but I was in my best three piece suit.

And the commentator spoke of hometown newspapers hurrying to press with cheapened coverage of the late-running event. Let me assure you The Star newsroom is monitoring the event. When it is over, Graham is scheduled to call around to get local opinions. Then Janet and Hugh will paginate.

After the speech, after the story, after it is prepared for you to read tomorrow -- then they will go home.
