Just catching up after a nice, long weekend away from reality.  The wife and I stayed at The Inn at Craig Place in San Antonio for our first "kids-feee" weekend in six years or so.  Eleven points on a scale of one to ten.

Stuff I didn't know  - The coach (Jose Pekerman) and captain (Juan Pablo Sorin) of the Argentine soccer team are Jewish

The Argentine population in Houston has doubled in recent years.  The Argentine owned restaurant mentioned, Giannotti's Cafe, was voted to have the Best Pasta in Houston.

The idea of a population swap between the future Palestine and Israel is becoming a serious topic of debate.  I'm not too sure how many Israeli Arabs would be excited about living in Hamas-stan, even if they don't enjoy their current status as a minority getting second class services.

Talk about playing both sides off against each other.  Nestle is buying Jenny Craig.  What's their slogan going to be - "Crunch Bar today, crunchy granola tomorrow?" Mmmmm....Crunch Bars......
