The White House just held a press conference in which they confirmed that a letter addressed to President Obama has tested positive for richin. There is no indication that this letter is connected to the bombings in Boston.

The official first day of spring may have been earlier this week, but one prosecutor in Ohio thinks that winter has gone on far too long—and he blames a certain prognosticatory rodent.

Ya’ll know I LOVE Natalie Maines voice and I REALLY miss the Dixie Chicks.  So, I am kind of excited hearing the news that Natalie is going to release an album this May.
