I'm a heck of a blogger

Sorry about the lack of updates around here. Just dropped by to see what condition my condition was in, but thought I'd mention this:
President Bush made his first trip here in three months on Thursday and declared that New Orleans was "a heck of a place to bring your family"

'Course, he also told Mike Brown he was doing "a heck of a job".

Leaving aside that for Bush, any city where most of the bars don't proof is probably okay with "the family", I think I've deduced a quirk of Bushspeak: "heck of a" means "crappy".

Okay, back to not blogging.
Have a heck of a weekend!

"Mr. Bush spent his brief visit in a meeting with political and business leaders on the edge of the Garden District, the grand neighborhood largely untouched by the floodwaters of Hurricane Katrina, and saw little devastation."

So maybe he missed the part about the rest of the city not quite being back into "family vacation" condition... unless you like to bring your family places as part of a disaster cleanup team.
