Transcript of Stephen Colbert at White House Correspondents Dinner. [link]
excerpt:
Joe Wilson is here, the most famous husband since Desi Arnaz. And of course he brought along his lovely wife Valerie Plame. Oh, my god! Oh, what have I said? [looks horrified] I am sorry, Mr. President, I meant to say he brought along his lovely wife Joe Wilson's wife. Pat Fitzgerald is not here tonight? OK. Dodged a bullet.
And we can't forget the new man of the hour, new press secretary, Tony Snow. Secret Service name "Snow Job." What a hero, took the second toughest job in government, next to, of course, the ambassador to Iraq.
Got some big shoes to fill, Tony. Scott McClellan could say nothing like nobody else. McClellan, eager to retire. Really felt like he needed to spend more time with Andrew Card's children. Mr. President, I wish you hadn't made the decision so quickly, sir.
Owww. My feet hurt. But that's generally what happens when you drop hardcover books on them when you are shoeless.
Next time I attempt the basement, my plan will include shoes.
It is so gorgeous out! I went grocery shopping, after finishing my first pass at my freelance job. Rock.
how goes the packing?
It goes well. I think. Despite the fact that I am covered in dust, my bedroom looks like a disaster area, and I still need to throw out the broken lava lamp.
Self-titled "world's last ninja" says you should "always be able to kill your students."
That's one way to maintain the title.
I slept. And then I slept some more. A couple of weeks of 3-4 hours of sleep a night is a lot harder to deal with than it used to be.
I should go get groceries. I probably have enough to survive on until tomorrow, though.
But that's generally what happens when you drop hardcover books on them when you are shoeless.
that's why we have wear closed toe shoes at the library. ( of course, most girl shoes won't protect you from that , either)
Friend came over and took a whole bunch of our brand new tree shoots - which is good, because Matt hates tossing them out
TV scheduling alert: There's an extra House on Wednesday at 8. Wednesday at 8 is KILLING ME. I want to watch every show on every channel. Bah!
Whoo-hoo for new two-channel Tivo! And then I'll probably have to watch something else in the bedroom. That hour is the worst, for sure.
I have put away almost all of the summer clothes. I need to spacebag sweaters and then put all these bags into the top of the closet. also need to put away the books and winter shoes.
