let's see what's happening in the world...

Iron Maiden got added to the Hollywood RockWalk, Garth Brooks announced you'd only be able to buy his music through Wal-Mart, and Courtney Love continued being Courtney Love. I think that's about it.

Oh, and Bush's approval ratings are now lower than Nixon's at the height of Watergate.

Then it's lucky for him that he's so popular.

Garth Brooks "retired from recording in 2001 and has vowed not to tour or record until his youngest daughter graduates from high school in 2015."

Bush needs to appear on the teevee and make us like him again.

That would be fun to watch.
