So busy!

I haven't had a chance to read much since yesterday and have a lot of email and blogging to catch up on. In the meantime, here are a few stories I'll be watching...
  • Bubba is covering the Governor's State of the State address, which was delivered last night. He's got a link to the full text of the speech and promises video is coming soon.
  • I've only caught a clip of this story from Aaron Brown, but apparently the Pope might be circling the drain?
  • The State of the Union news cycle is beginnning. Is that speech going to take place tomorrow?
  • And finally, a friend has recommended the lastest from William Rivers Pitt. Hopefully I'll get to spend some time tomorrow seeing where he goes from this opening quote:
"United States officials were surprised and heartened today at the size of turnout in South Vietnam's presidential election despite a Vietcong terrorist campaign to disrupt the voting. According to reports from Saigon, 83 percent of the 5.85 million registered voters cast their ballots yesterday. Many of them risked reprisals threatened by the Vietcong. A successful election has long been seen as the keystone in President Johnson's policy of encouraging the growth of constitutional processes in South Vietnam."
- Peter Grose, in a page 2 New York Times article titled, 'U.S. Encouraged by Vietnam Vote,' September 4, 1967.
So, what have I missed?
