There used to be an unspoken rule that you were not allowed to comment about something which was in the text but not actually delivered, "I found it interesting that the President had intended to mention saving the ground squirrel population in Upper Mooseback, but he left it out of his speech at the last minute" was not allowed.
Like so many rules nowadays, this one, like a verbal contract, is not worth the paper its written on.
- Atkins Diet update. As of Tuesday (day 6) minus 4 lbs. By the way, January 3 Mullings runs a photo of the Atkins Diet book; on January 6 Dr. Atkins gets the whole hour on Larry King. Coincidence? You be the judge.

Here is the Mullings about his race which I wrote in September.
