RWD’s News Round-up, Tuesday

Hello,
I’m RightWingDuck and I’m here to share the news.
Robert Iger has been chosen to replace Eisner as the Disney CEO. He’ll be stepping into the position in October.

Update: Odiwan (you think he likes Star Wars?) sent me this Ep III Trailer Spoof. Heh.

Frank’s Bible Study Notes

Been busy this week, but I’ll have a political post later today. Also, I’ll soon have another segment of Frank Reads the Bible™. Until then, I think you should know I’ve been going to some real Bible study with SarahK. I thought I’d share my notes with you so you’d see how spiritually enlightened I’m getting.
