Argus Hamilton And now for the important news .... newsandopinion.com \| The White House announced Friday that discussions are underway with Colombia for a free trade agreement with the United States. It's a risky strategy. Cheaper crack could accidentally stimulate the California economy and save Gray Davis's job. Maria Shriver went on leave from NBC Dateline Friday. She is bracing herself for tales about her husband's womanizing. With each revelation, Hillary Clinton will be right there telling her to breathe deeply and think about the book advance. Arnold Schwarzenegger appeared on the Internet Friday in old pictures of him with naked women. No one's sure who leaked them. It could be Gray Davis trying to discredit Arnold or it could be Arnold trying to take votes away from Larry Flynt. Arnold Schwarzenegger began his campaign for California governor Friday.

After three days the whiskey was so watered down it could only be sold in Las Vegas. American Airlines pilots demanded the government expand the handgun training program to all pilots. They feel defenseless the way things are. Those tequila shooters they have in the cockpit are no defense at all against an observant Muslim. Appreciate this writer's work?
