So, there's this saying in Costa Rica

If anyone knows any Ticos who can tell us how they say it in Spanish (I'm pretty sure it's not a literal translation thing), let me know. But, the saying is "No scandal lasts more than three days." What it means is that by the third day people are bored of hearing about the awful things a politician or public figure has done and things die down and everyone forgets. My greatest fear is that becoming a reality hear. But, to be honest...it seems to be.

People seem to have forgotten about domestic spying.

No one is throwing a hissy about Katrina anymore.

What about the ports deal? Even the politicians are losing interest.

Don't forget about how well the war in Iraq is going.

But, everyone seems to be distracted from all that by our stronger than ever space program...

...oh, that and Lindsay Lohan's nipple.
