This was one stupendous news show. So much to marvel at. Plus Middle East Karma! Where do I begin?

1. As technologically-praiseworthy Israel's intervention is, I am truly puzzled that this wasn't first floated by Scott Adams in Dilbert. That would be a project even Wally wouldn't turn down.

2. Related to 1., I've heard that this generated a new pick-up line for adventurous men: "Girl, do you know that you're hotter than a Hezbollah Pager?" What woman could resist that?

3. Speaking of floating ideas, I wonder if the poor priest is going to be nominated for a Darwin Award. Though the irony is a bit cold.

4. Eco Chaplains...Maybe I'm missing out on a great ministry, but, as you report, finding meaning at the intersection of Ecology, Dumb, and Dumber can only be the province of the few.

5. I can't believe the Russians haven't yet ordered a hundred of those 40-ton tanks. But then again, they'd probably fall into the hands of the Ukrainians.

6. But can you imagine driving one of those things down Main Street on a Fourth of July Parade? Kids running out into the street to retrieve candy....well, I think I'll just stop there, this being a family-type establishment.

Carry on.
