Thoughts

1. It's so sad that eggs cost so much now and probably affected many children's Easter egg hunts this year. Of course, it's sad for all of us, now that food and gasoline and pretty much everything else is more expensive now.

2. Just around the 5 year anniversary of the Iraq war, we learn that 4,000 American lives have been lost. Whether you agree with the war or not, we can all agree that both those numbers are just way too big.

3. It's disappointing that UCLA has had to rely on the officials so much to win close games recently. Against Cal, Stanford, and most recently Texas A&M, there were so questionable calls or non-calls that all went UCLA's way. Granted, I'm happy about UCLA winning, but I was hoping they wouldn't have to keep relying on that. Still, as the saying goes, games are not won or lost on just one play or just one call.

4. I'm done with our taxes! I just have to print it and mail it out!
