Summary: It's time to review the news so far in 2006, and Vern Beachy is just the guy to do it. What makes our prospective different from what you would see on TV is that all these opinions come from what we hear from the average person as being important, instead of an on-the-payroll media expert who is basking in their once-a-year camera time. We talk about the biggest news story of the year so far in 2006, the biggest taxpayer and consumer rip-off, the biggest "who cares" news story we were made to suffer through, the best/worst TV news shows and much more. Vern and I also have our list of candidates for the 2006 Hosebag Of The Year Award. Vern asks me about my worst dining experience, my best dining experience, and how I think the mid-term political elections will shake out.
