We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

TDS was great last night. LOVED the video of O'Reilly praising the Palins handling of Bristol, contrasted with him calling the Spears "pinheads" and saying if a teenage girl gets pregnant, it's because of bad parents.

I also really liked Rove vs. Rove.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yeah, that was great, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Interesting article on teen pregnancy: [link]

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm kind of sad that MSNBC is covering the convention this week. Because I'd love to hear Keith and Rachel skewering the Republican talking points but I'm not willing to tune into the convention itself.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Interesting conversation last night between my Mom and my Sister:

Sister: So if Trig IS Bristol's also, why does a kid get pregnant a SECOND time?

Mom: Because they took her baby the first time.

Which, yeah, makes sense. That poor kid. She's nobody's priority.

Jon Stewart last night talked about why he considers Bristol's pregnancy fair game. He and Newt Gingrich went back and forth on it a bit.

And since Stewart actually IS comedy I can see his point. And I note that he hasn't been nasty to Bristol. He's not calling her a slut or an idiot. He's not mocking her. It's not a tenth of what actual News people (and Senators) had to say about poor Chelsea. And it is arguably relevant.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I'd love to hear Keith and Rachel skewering the Republican talking points

Watch Countdown on Friday night. I suspect there will be much skewering.
