Number 112

Elena Kagan
Joining Roberts Court this week.
Fourth woman on the bench.

Oil No More

Static Kill working
Leak sealed; oil disappearing
To where? I don't know

Gaga ooh la la!

Lady Gaga speaks:
New immigration law sucks.
Rah Rah ah ah ah.

The Honorable Representatives from California and New York

Ethics inquiries
Lines blur for Dems in the House
A matter of race?

Not in my rose garden, Mel Gibson

What happened to Mel?
His mouth ran foul again
His career tumbling

It's on Again

"We're getting married,"
Levi and Bristol announced.
To Sarah's chagrin.

Oil Spill: Three Months Later

They replaced the plug
Fingers crossed the oozing stops
Time is running out.

Ugandan Tragedy

World Cup explosion
Al Qaeda extends boundaries
How to stop madness?

Arizona vs. the Government of the United States

Immigration fight.
Lawsuit enters messy plight.
Down the rabbit hole.

The Big Decision

Hoping to win more,
LeBron tips to Miami.
Dribble, dribble, shoot.

More on ESPN: "James Decides on Heat"

Summertime in DC

Yes, the heat is on
On the street, inside your head.
Oh the heat is on.

Lyrics from Glenn Frey.

Spies Like Us

Russian spies return
to a home they barely know.
Spy game quid pro quo.

More on Washington Post: "U.S., Russia reach deal on suspected spies"

Blogojevich's first day in court

Did Rod sell the seat?
Jury to decide the truth
of shenanigans.

This is the end, beautiful friend

Al and Tipper part
The beltway affair fractured
How inconvenient

Words of wisdom from Seattle

"Productivity
begets productivity,"
a wise woman said.

In Memoriam

Goodbye Linkletter.
Easy Rider's journey ends.
We'll miss you Coleman.

Hoop dreams

Kobe or Jordan?
Who is the greatest player?
Or better person?

Ididerot

Alaskan stalker
Moves next door for better view
He can see Russia

Day on the Chesapeake

Bobbing on the seas
Deck exercises gone bad
Sails fly at full mast

Primary Primer

Lincoln still must fight.
Paul's tea party keeps brewing.
Specter packs his bags.

Containment

Broken rig below
Watch the oil freely flow
Toxic coastline grows.

State Dinner

Neighborhood cookout.
Calderon is in the house.
Can I join in too?

In Sports

The first pitch was thrown ,
A blue devil crowned again,
Tiger swings once more.
