Nobody puts baby (jesus) in the corner!!!

I heard a commercial for Dancing with the Stars Live 6 (or something like that) on the way to the job today. Apparently, this new season of DSL has received critical acclaim, to wit, it has been called "the best ballroom show of 2006". Holy shit, this show must rule. We're twelve days in to the year and we already know that this show is unequivocally the show to watch in terms of ballroom. Seriously, with these types of reviews, I may not even watch another ballroom show all year. I mean, what's the point - it will obviously fail in comparison to Dancing with the Stars Live 6. Too bad its not on NBC - then I could get input from my "friends" that spontaneously chit chat about NBC shows on a regular basis.

Something else I want to discuss today - the herion addiction problem in Iran. I guess because of their proximity to Afghanistan, the Iranian people have excessive opportunities to experiment with heroin and subsequently develop an addiction. Quite a problem because while heroin is in heavy supply there, I'm pretty sure they have managed to keep it expensive. Yet another example of the entrepreneurial spirit of the drug dealer. Anyway, since we all know what a progressive and forward thinking country Iran is, it will come as no surprise that they maintain an active needle exchange program. And of course, every country worth its salt maintains a methadone treatment program. Where they have been innovative was housing the two in the same place so that every time a drug addict goes to exchange a needle, they are reminded that the recovering addicts look better than them, they are cleaner and healthier, and best of all, they get their drugs free from the government. So in summary, Iran has a much better drug treatment program in place than the U.S.

Do I need to say that again for emphasis? Iran has a much better drug treatment program than the U.S.
