This is how cops talk in real life: “We have no reason to believe he died of suicide.” In other words the rat bastard that killed the cop, got killed by a cop. That’s the only piece of good news in the story.

This is a good first step. Arresting the people that give illegals jobs should help slow down the wave coming over the Rio Grande. Take away the demand for illegal workers and the supply will dry up.

It’s wonderful to see that student activism is still alive and causing people to quit their jobs. At least the kids at Gallaudet are having a quiet demonstration. Like they would know any different.

Having an owner seems to be good for the Nats. At least something has set their bats on fire for the moment.

Metro should get rid of the carpet on trains and replace it with a sound dampening rubber, but they had best leave the cushions in the seats. The interim guy (Dan Tangherlini or something like that) is trying to land the gig full time and in doing so is working harder than the guy that was canned. Funny how putting a guy in charge that really wants the job always seems to lead to good things.

And if the high price of housing has got you bummed, try this new product. Good luck finding a floor plan AND neighborhood that you will be happy with in 50 years. Although, if you stayed for the life of the mortgage you would get to see two complete cycles of gentrification.

More later. The boss expects me to work today.
