I'm Thinking...
Yes, and I have been told that is a dangerous thing. But seriously, I'm thinking it is time Stick Poet had a face lift. I'm just not sure if I am up to it yet... but it really is needed.
Jilly did it. Aimee did. Katey has done it uh.... a gazillion times. Micheala has done it. Oh, and James. Hell, even educated bees do it... Oh wait, that's an old Nancy Sinatra song!
Ok, I am going to seriously give this some thought. Get back to you on it!.

New Poet Laureate for United States
Ted Kooser of Nebraska has been named poet laureate of United States. He replaces Pulitzer Prize winner Louise Gluck in the eight-month position. Is eight months really long enough for anyone to actually have an impact in this position?
Kooser's appointment is significant in that he is the first even from the Midwest. He has written 10 collections of poetry, the latest - Delights & Shadows, published this year.
Kooser will actually not replace Gluck till later this fall. [source]
