Bush and Cheney met with the 9-11 panel. Alas, it was in private with no TV coverage and no written transcripts. I would imagine that Bush sat on Cheney’s knee as the VP did his best impression of a ventriloquist. Maybe he even made a talking Bush voice as he drank a glass of water!

We had another Parks event today. It was a groundbreaking at Harry Maze Playground in East Flatbush. The fun part was when our sound system went on fire a half-hour before the event started. It wasn’t as bad as it sounds, but lots of smoke did emanate from the speakers. So my boss ran to Radio Shack and bought a Karaoke machine which served as our sound system for about a half hour until it went dead in the middle of some guy’s speech. (Kinda appropriate though since the guy was pontificating for way too long) So my boss returned the Karaoke machine as soon as the event was over and is presumably shopping for something else at this moment as we have another event tomorrow for Arbor Day! Yipee.

Last week I predicted Shii Ann’s departure on “Survivor” and she certainly would have been voted out except she won immunity. Barring another miracle, she is certain to go tonight. Then we will be left with Boston Rob, Amber, Rupert, Jenna and Big Tom!
