This Wednesday, while the President is giving his State of the Union Address, the local PBS affiliate will be airing _Auschwitz: Inside the Nazi State_.

I don’t really have a comment. I did, however, feel a strange urge to share. I’ll be quiet now.

Let’s see. In place of the State of the Union Address, I can watch instead …

_Judge Judy_ - I think she beats up a former governor, but I’m not sure.  
_Monster Garage_ - How many JDAMs can you fit in an Iraqi garage?  
_Lyin’ Eyes_ - WGN  
_The Enforcers_ - History Channel  
_Clean Sweep_ - TLC - Something about a mandate I think  
_Fear Factor_ - FX - Shhhh!  
_Crank Yankers_ - Comedy Channel
