Now tagless for your comfort.
That's of the marketing firm Turner hired. No one at Turner seems to really be taking responsibility.
Ah. That's right.

I lied, one more thing.
Hec, I am eating my oatmeal this morning. I also have apples in it.

I'm not sure they can prosecute Turner Broadcasting for anything but, like, vandalism (is that what you call putting up posters where it's not allowed?). I think there might be some extralegal flagellations, however, along the lines of a big "voluntary" donation to the city firefighters' fund, or something. I haven't heard anything about an executive falling on his sword -- isn't that traditional about now?
Yeah, unfortunately they probably can do something to the guys on the ground who put up the devices, if only by nailing them with court costs. Also, one of the guys arrested had just gotten his green card, so there may be some unpleasantness there. I hope Turner doesn't wash their hands of this.

Hec, I am eating my oatmeal this morning.
I've been meaning to report that I've had oatmeal (the quick Irish kind, 3 min. in microwave) three times this week! With dried cranberries & toasted almonds. Made with skim milk. Delicious!

I just finished my oatmeal! I had flax seeds in it. And some dried cranberries and just a pinch of brown sugar.

Today I had oatmeal with dried cranberries and brown sugar, which I have about four times a week. Yummy!
Big press in SF this week: the mayor apparently had an affair with the wife of his campaign manager (and long-time friend); the campaign manager confronted the mayor, quit in a huff, and someone leaked the whole thing to the press.
This, in combination with the stupid sockpuppetting "scandal" by the mayor's spokesperson, is making life at City Hall fairly amusing.
I rather like Newsom, but dude, what is it about politicians who cannot keep it in their pants? And not just having an affair, but with a married woman? t rolls eyes forever

Right on Team Oatmeal! You're all going to live one day longer. Which may not seem like much, but that's the day they'll unveil the orgasmatron.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Didja' know that blasphemy is a crime in Massachusetts? Up to a year in jail time too: [link]
I wonder when the last time was that someone was prosecuted for this....
