There was a book published a few years ago called something like "How Jews Became White Folk," about the shift toward thinking of Jews as "white." I remember seeing something about a work force (maybe on the railroads?) that had three pay scales: white, black, and Italian.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

OMG, among other treats tonight, the Daily Show showed their own version of the McCain "Life Story" video. Let's just say that no punches were pulled, and doG bless Ian McShane for doing his best Fred Thompson. Seriously, if McCain loses the election (I figure if he wins, he's never going back again anyway), I can't imagine him ever being a "friend of the show" again. And yet, I don't think it was unfair given the shit they're throwing at Obama.

Huh, javachik. If you felt it in San Mateo and I felt it in Oakland, I wonder what fault it was on...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I didn't feel it here. Weird.

I heard the report about the green screen in back of McCain and thought it was an homage to the Colbert Nation. for a split second.
