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.
Does anyone much about Ned Lamont? I finally watched Monday's Colbert report, and I think maybe he's my new secret politican boyfriend.
I like him on Colbert, but I must say I'm less than thrilled with some of his supporters when they pull a stunt like this: [link]
I can't say that Lamont has handled it all that well from the sounds of it, either. I still think he's the better option, and he carried himself well on Colbert, but what were they thinking? Leiberman's already got a ton of negatives to publicize and his numbers are tanking. Why pull this kind of shit that's doesn't do much but give Leiberman's supporters some ammo? I'm not even sure I get what the image is supposed to imply.
Oh yeah, that is awesome, bon bon. Love it!
I just booked my plane ticket for Thanksgiving. Even already, it would have been pretty pricey, going Weds-Sun, so I'm going Tues-Sat. Eh.
For other days, I don't know what the hell is going on, but USAir is selling tickets to Boston for $100 ROUND TRIP. Madness!
Well, the image was obviously a bit of really bad judgement on the part of one blogger, and, worse, was muddled enough not to even get its intendend message, Lieberman as panderer and phony, across. And as soon as it came to light and someone pointed out how utterly tasteless it was, she removed it.
Very unfortunate, especially in the last days before the election. But really - a non-issue, IME. It's not like it was a Lamont staffer, or anyone particularly affiliated with him. When people like Michelle Malkin are leading the charge to make it a big deal, I call bullshit.
One of mr. flea's engineering PhD colleagues doesn't belive in evolution. Which, fine and all, but the funny thing is that they do a kind of work involving genetic algorithms, which is [handwave] some kind of mathy thing whose basic principle is that of evolution.
I have actually had someone say to me, "Well, I know I wasn't descended from some ape!"
Strega, thanks! I did notice that one of the articles P-C linked to yesterday mentioned that in at least one poll, the belief that evolution is a solid, well-supported scientific theory was held most strongly by West Coasters, people with college degrees, people with center-to-left-of-center politics, and Catholics. Which tallies embarrassingly well with practically my entire meatspace social circle.

My brother and sister went into a bible store on a lark and saw a t-shirt that said, "Hot girls don't come from monkeys."

It's AUGUST. And just the start. Now I feel tired.

Oh, that? Anti-bestiality.

But normal chicks get off from them?

Oh, it certainly doesn't make me feel any different on who I want to win the CT seat, but jeez people, think before you post inflammtory stuff, especially when the mainstream media has been parroting the meme that "bloggers are on a jihad for Leiberman".
