"Before you know it as the years go by, you're just like other people you have seen, with all those peculiar human ailments. Just another vehicle for temper and vanity and rashness and all the rest. Who wants it? Who needs it? These things occupy the place where a man's soul should be." -- Henderson the Rain King

That's Our Bush

The Gator basketball team joined the Huskies' volleyball team and several other NCAA champions today to meet President Bush at the White House. Of course it wouldn't be a meeting with Bush without some classic slip-ups, including Bush temporarily forgetting which UW he was dealing with [transcript]:

"Jim McLaughlin and the University of Washington Women's Volleyball Team is here. Congratulations to the Huskies. (Applause.) These women won their first national championship in school history. They weren't supposed to win. They were the underdog. They had low expectations. It's a good thing, is to keep expectations low, by the way. And they brought home a national championship to the University of Wisconsin. Congratulations to you all. I mean, the University of Washington, I beg your pardon.

Guess I've got to keep my expectations lower...

Expectations on Bush are VERY low in my book.
