Interesting Stuff from the Weekend

Just a few interesting items from this weekend:

Barry Huckeby had a hearing of sorts in front of the School Board. According to The Republic newspaper, the board heard details of the charges against him and his own defense in a closed session. The public doesn't get to find out about all of it until everything's complete. Apparently they will decide on his termination tonight (Monday). There's no new information being made public, as far as I can tell.

Colts fans, forget any delusions of a Super Bowl appearance for this year. I could run for 200 yards against that defense. They can't stop anybody. Their linebackers play like girls.

A little story from Mike Sodrel about the difference between Republicans and Democrats in Congress: When Mike beat Baron Hill, he was provided a small cubicle to use while getting settled for his term in congress. He was given the office space only after Baron's term was over. (This was when Republicans were in charge). Well, this time the Democrats are taking power, and they demanded that all of the congressmen who were defeated this time move out of their offices immediately and hand them over to their incoming replacements. JD Hayworth refused, telling them he is a congressman until December 31st, and if they want him out of his office before then, they can bring in the police to remove him.

I was a ringer in the tenor section for a church's Christmas cantata yesterday. It was pretty nice, a decent piece with a good brass sextet from IU playing along. Just challenging enough to make it interesting. Gotta sing again this evening for some old folks.
