I covered City Council last night for work. It was fun, but I was so busy that I didn't get around to writing a blog post for today. :(
So today it's "Open Thread" day at Brainshrub.com.
Go crazy:

I woke up this morning feeling a bit patriotic.
Maybe it's something I ate last night, but DAMN I'm happy to be an American today.
Admit it - doesn't it feel good to know that your country kicks ass?
I'm not talking militarily - a strong army is no measure of a country's greatness. I'm just saying that the people who live here, our art, our music, our architecture, and our science - it kicks ass!
Boo Yah!
So here's an open thread today. Talk about anything you'd like, but the over-arching theme is: How America kicks ass!
ON EDIT: And if you're not living in the US, then tell us why your country also kicks ass.
