Natter 46: The FIGHTIN' 46
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I didn't know it, so thanks, Tom.
Something to make you go "WTF?" from today's Think Progress:
I was reading the latest installment of the Jill Carroll story, and there was a link to this piece : [link]
Someone should email me a secret. I don't get good emails anymore.
When you're all done emailing Allyson, will you email me a happy thought?
(Today has been very cranky making)
If being rich doesn't allow me to have two cars, well, darn it, I'm going to stop trying.
If it was Jimmy Buffet's car, I might try to advocate for it.
How have you missed it?
Everytime somebody's disputed a call, the announcers have all been -- s/he's disputed x-number of calls this tournament. And if they haven't disputed any and the announcers think that they should have -- they remark on that too.
Plus, I believe they mentioned 40-katrillion times during Wimbledon. (Maybe that was just John McEnroe. 'Cause I believe he may have an issue.)
I feel like I've been whacked with the slow-stick today. Cognition just isn't working for me. I have 2.5 hours of meeting coming up, and I'm operating in a serious daze.

How have you missed it?
Don't know, but I did, so I'm grateful for the heads up. It's no big deal.
In depressing media news (well, not news per se but my opinion on it), I was highly disappointed to see Countdown with Keith Olbermann jumping on the JonBenet media hype bandwagon last week. I should have been expecting it--after all, he is on MSNBC--but I thought he was above that sort of crap. He has no problem zinging his superiors when he covers the usual American Idol bullshit, but kowtows to them when he spends the opening half hour on various aspects of that story.
Coundown is the only news show I watch (I don't even bother with the local news shows other than the occasional look at the local 24-hour news channel CLTV, mostly for weather reports), but I tuned out in the JonBenet fever of last week.
