The Onion: Struggling Mets Combine To Form Carlos Voltron.
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Pretty much ready to go. Apartment still a mess. Oh well.
Cats are going nuts. Managed to turn off the modem once already, bouncing around like lunatics.

Bon voyage, sarameg!
It's worth it to look up David Letterman's reaction to John McCain cancelling on him, especially when he finds out during the taping that McCain is in fact still in NYC being interviewed by Katie Couric... and that McCain evidently lied about it to him over the phone.

Have fun traveling, sarameg!

Wow, I was calling Palin a smash success for firing up the base and creating a massive shift to McCain-Palin among white women based on polling that have M-P a 53% - 37% lead among white women. But now I saw this story:
White Women Swing Back From John McCain to Barack Obama
That's a massive shift back. It's hard to believe the polling with shifts this big.
