Agents from the FBI and Internal Revenue Service on Monday searched the home of U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens, an official said.



Investigators arrived at the Republican senator's home in Girdwood shortly before 2:30 p.m. Alaska time, said Dave Heller, FBI assistant special agent.

Heller said he could not comment on the nature of the investigation.

The Justice Department has been looking into the seven-term senator's relationship with a wealthy contractor as part of a public corruption investigation.

3. I loved Al Franken's "reply" to Stevens' "Series of tubes" statement.

He said, "The Internet is not a series of tubes, Senator. It just...ISN'T." All said with mock seriousness.
