Where's Charlton Heston?

General Colin L. Powell will be the featured speaker at the 2005 National Restaurant Association Restaurant, Hotel-Motel Show. I wonder if he thinks he’s addressing the other NRA. What’s he doing at a foodie show? Does he suspect there are WMDs hiding in the Boca Burgers? Did Bush ask him to lie to us about the amount of digestible cholesterol in eggs? Perhaps his spineless ambivalence also is at play in the great Coke versus Pepsi, chunky versus creamy debates.
