Well, the first major holiday has passed. I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. Mine was very good.
Other than the continual promo for Tom Brokaw on NBC, it was a relatively slow news weekend. Shoppers were shopping, the weather chose not to cooperate in several locations, and football was football.
Here are some interesting items.
+Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist will not be returning to the Supreme Court for the two week session beginning today. He continues to receive treatment for thyroid cancer. Chief Justice Rehnquist is working from his Virginia home with the help of his clerks and other personnel. The Chief Justice is listening to oral arguments and weighing in with his opinion.
While there will be a full Supreme Court Watch report later this week, the most interesting case involves medical marijuana. More importantly, two cases where state law conflict with Federal law.

More later.
