Searching for the perfect brew!

Random thoughts...
COWS: Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington and they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give them each a cow.
CONSTITUTION: They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years and we're not using it anymore. TEN COMMANDMENTS: The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse? You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians! It creates a hostile work environment! I don't know who said these, does anyone know? Sounds like George Carlin.

And as with many of his witticisms, it touches reality just enough to make you say "yeah, that's right" until you think about it a minute. The cows aren't trying to evade the authorities, the Constitution is still in effect and . . . well, I can't pick on the third one (even as an attorney, I find a ring of general truth to it!).

Always great to hear something by Carlin. Or Carlin-esk?
