Reading Around

According to The Christian Science Monitor, Denver is reinventing itself.

I saw this episode, too. I don't watch a lot of TV, so it's a happy coincidence. I was wondering if the IRS agents would get sympathetic treatment from the writers, and they didn't. I like Steve's idea on future programming...

Pain doctor William Hurwitz was sentenced to 25 years today. His crime? Being too compassionate. The feds wanted a life sentence, to use him as an example. It would be fitting if each of the agents and prosecutors in the case were to catch debilitating, painful diseases and be unable to get adequate pain medications.

I mean that in the nicest possible way.

So if you agree to a tax increase to pay for billions of dollars worth of train tracks you have reinvented yourself? That's an interesting theory. Shouldn't we at least wait for the billions and billions of dollars worth of train to tracks to be laid before we validate a claim of reinvention? Or is simply the idea of billions and billions of dollars worth of train tracks enough to be a reinvention?

Well, sure, we're reinvented. As poorer people.
