A Montana woman fought off a bear attack with a zucchini.
Guess there were no bananas handy.

This is just wrong:
The Bobcat first went after Brutus as the OSU mascot led the Buckeyes onto the field for the game.
Moments later, the Bobcat mascot climbed on the back of Ohio State’s mascot and rode him to the ground. The two then tussled in the end zone while fans booed.
Two thoughts. No, three.
First, it’s amusing that the only way to instill any fear in the enemy of a team mascot that is basically a tree nut is to name it “Brutus.”
Second, it should be beneath the dignity of a carnivore like a bobcat to even bother with said tree nut, let alone wrestle with it.
Third, you’d never see a wolverine do anything like that.

Thoughts from Walter Russell Mead. I disagree with his opinion on Clarke’s writing quality, though.

Kyle-Anne Shiver says that the Democrats sealed their fate in March:
All the other power-grabs — taking over auto companies and banks and insurance companies — might have left the Democrats out of the electoral tsunami zone, but the health care power grab sealed their coming fate.
The health care bill, foisted upon an unwilling American public, has become this era’s Intolerable Act. Just as King George and his elitist parliament pushed our ancestors beyond their breaking point, so has the modern Democrat cabal of Obama, Pelosi, and Reid. These are names that will live in American infamy.
No Mount Rushmore for them.
Probably no more posts until I get back to California tomorrow, because I don’t think I’ll have Interweb access.

Well, I got back in time to see a great Michigan/Notre-Dame game. I think we’re going to start hearing Heisman buzz about Robinson, but Michigan’s defense is still suspect. Fortunately they have a soft early schedule from here on in to work on it, before the Spartans and Hawkeyes in October.
Barack Obama has lost his sex appeal. Of course, I’ve always been immune to politicians’ supposed charisma, from Reagan to Clinton.
The offense looked very good, but it will have to be to make up for the porous secondary. 30-10 is a nice-looking score, but UConn beat themselves. When they go up against a team that has receivers who can hang on to the ball, I’m afraid they’re going to get lit up. We’ll find out next week against the Irish.
