I just wanted the readers of this blog to know, that since I mixed a few Mojitos in the first ten days of February 2009, I will be the recipient of this year's Nobel Prize for Chemistry.
Seriously, if the President had an ounce of humility he'd politely decline the award or send General Petraeus to Oslo to accept on behalf of the men and women of the American armed forces. They have done far more to advance the cause of peace, justice and understanding than the gaggle of naifs giving this award out.
