For anyone who remembers  “Car 54 where are you?,” apparently it’s now a reality show in Mountain View, California.

After a rock concert a police officer in a “lapse of judgment,” according to the San Francisco Chronicle, left the keys in the ignition for “a few minutes.”

The car was last seen “speeding and sort of showboating” on a nearby street Friday night.  As of Saturday night, the car, actually car 3006, has not been found.

Kobe Bryant and his wife have filed a countersuit against their housekeeper, who had previously sued them for intolerable working conditions.  This could get messy. Wonder what happened to get it to this point…was Kobe’s jeweller unavailable for assistance?

In Major League Baseball interleague action this weekend the Baltimore Orioles (18-25) are playing the Washington Nationals (12-30.)   For fan interest and high-level competition this has to rival the annual congressional softball game.

Okay, political commentary to follow.  Conservatives can stop reading now…

The latest Guantanamo controversy is the idea that if we close the prison and send the prisoners to the U.S., that our country will be less safe having these potential terrorists on our shores. 

So here in California maybe it’s time for medals for the  Marin county residents we’ve been lampooning for years …when they’ve been living with serial killers and other death row inmates in their backyard at San Quentin for years.

I’m willing to concede the need to keep potential terrorists in a safe place.  What bothers me, however, is the thought that our maximum security prisons don’t qualify.
