Major Weekend Headlines; DADT, North Korea Backing Down, And I Get New Shoes

The 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' repeal was easily the biggest piece of news over the weekend.  And it's about damn time.  The folks who are saying this will now cause a distraction with their armed forces is high.  I'm not doubting that there will be some redneck officer who is going to start some trouble with an openly gay soldier, but I'm going to guess those incidents will be few and far between.

North Korea is lowering their arms momentarily after making a public statement, saying they would NOT be attacking South Korea over alleged drilling conflicts.  Days ago N.K. took the opposite opinion and said they would keep up the current hostility, but my guess is they got distracted when Kim Jong found something else to look at:

Personal highlight...was gifted a pair of Clae Strayhorn, half sneaker half work functional.  The best of both worlds.
