Gud - that is one of the AARP "Don't vote" ads saying basically don;t vote unless you really know where candidate's stand on issues.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
One of the four pastors tasked with investigating accusations against Ted Haggard raged against Pokemon in 1999
...
The second of this four, Mark Cowart, was in the news back in 1999 when he discovered the occult conspiracy behind Pokemon:
...While driving with his kids, he heard them in the back seat talking about "Abra'' and "Cadabra,'' and "my antenna went up,'' Cowart said.
Cowart said one of his concerns is that one of the Pokeman characters sprouts horns. Another concern, he said, is that children exploring a Pokemon Web site can click to other games, including "Magic: the Gathering,'' a game similar to Dungeons and Dragons.
Cowart delegated his church's children's pastor to get medieval on the Japanese toys:
At a church service Wednesday at Grace Fellowship Church, children's pastor Mark Juvera told 85 children ages 6 through 12 that Pokemon is evil.
To make his point, Juvera burned Pokemon trading cards with a blowtorch and struck a plastic Pokemon action figure with a 30-inch sword. Juvera's 9-year-old son then tore the limbs and head off a Pokemon doll.
During the demonstration, the children chanted: "Burn it. Burn it,'' and "Chop it up. Chop it up.''

And lord knows, that's a healthy thing to promote!
NO COURT NEWS!
BOO!

When you're racing - it's life. Anything that comes before or after is just waiting.
But he's Canadian!!I think he recently became as US citizen (or is in the process at least) according to an interview I listened to.

Love the Colin ad.
Between that and brenda's offices' telenovela-like goings on, I'm losing the need to watch tv.
Well, stay tuned. It's staff conference weekend again! Should be good times.
Which reminds me, I already need to go and impress upon a project assistant that the stuff she heard in our meeting this morning with the UK team needs to be kept in the vault. For some reason marketing and the UK group tend to be very, um, frank in our discussions.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
That was the children's pastor?! For truth in advertising they need to re-name their sunday school Future Psychopaths of America.
