We aren't in Kansas Anymore (hint: We are in LA)

This is one of those normal undecided voter groups commenting on the debate with doofus Frank Luntz.

But it goes all wacky at exactly the 2:27 mark: This is totally worth a moment of your time on this planet.



Hint: Ministry of silly analysis.

OK Time for some father daughter posts

Today, Grace and I were working on a few puzzles together. Occasionally I would give her a high five if she finished one. My version of encouragement.

After putting one especially difficult piece together, she turned to me and said, "Daddy can I have a five?"

In Her Own Words

As Primary day approaches, here is a short film to remind you of a few things about the run up to the Iraq War.

Live from Florida...It's Morning Joe!

Thw MSNBC road show is in Florida today, where they are apparently holding a pretty important Republican Primary.

The first half hour, the closest they got to mentioning the GOP was some mention of Joe Lieberman. All the oxygen is being taken up by the other party, and another former President. And today it is being taken up by the senior senator from my neighboring state.

Just a question

If Bill Clinton is supposedly just one of those supportive spouses of the candidates, then why are they showing his speech on all the news networks right now?

Just askin'.

plus ca change

Tonight I popped into the hotel bar for a quick nighcap.

Within 30 seconds a 30ish guy next to me ordered 3 Jaegermeisters mixed with Red Bull.

He made his friends wait until they all had their drinks, as it was important to bond while shooting the cocktail.

It's good to be here!

Ahh, I remember California

Sitting on a Southwest jet in Phoenix a few hours ago, it quickly became clear my flight was headed for Los Angeles. As the new passengers boarded, I counted no less than three women with seriously obvious boob jobs. I am a loooong way from upstate New York.
