Easter

  Good morning and Happy Easter on this last day of March. It is 34 degrees and mostly clear in Upstate NY. The lamb part of March has arrived on the last few days of the month with the temperatures once again expected to go up into the 50s later on today.

  Glancing around the media I can't help but notice that Jim Carrey has really excited the right with his anti-gun clip. The barb throwing back and forth war continues with Carrey versus the right wing. He's a little out numbered at the moment but his position as a celebratory allows him to be heard on an equal footing with his detractors. CNN: Carrey calls conservative media critics 'bullies' You have to hand it to Carrey, he must have been aware of the level of flack he would get for taking on the NRA especially Charlton Heston. I would invite you to read the comment sections of the articles. One must assume that the supporters of Heston and the NRA are relatively old people because the younger generation would not know who Heston is. In the mind of a younger generation, Carey himself is an older actor.

  Speaking of name calling there's something of a comical nature in the barbs being thrown by North Korea at the USA. The USA is being called a "boiled pumpkin" by North Korea. Maybe that is a horrendous thing to call an entity in North Korea but in my mind it's very humorous and humorous on many levels. "Doo doo head" might have more impact.
