"I'm not dead yet"

I'm certain I heard or saw on broadcast news one recent morning that that was the day the Military Commissions Act was to be signed by the President into law, but I haven't heard anything more. Was it just not suffficiently newsworthy that he signed it? Was it not sufficiently newsworthy that he didn't sign it (I really don't think he's so clever or devious, or un-self-serving, but I have entertained the notion that George would walk up to the podium, pick up the pen, then look up at the gathered houses of Congress and go, "Punk'd!" and berate them for spinelessness and betrayal of their trust*)? Or am I all wrong, and the signing date is still nigh? kthx

GARP plus

Interesting that I should get email comments yesterday on, of all the works I have online, both this archive AKOTAS )

and this essay from five years ago. ) The correspondent who wrote about the essay pointed out that George W. Bush has been photo-opped with a guitar.
