You know, I'm kidding, but I'm serious -- you have to be an actual power player to get hit with a corruption scandal, so it does say something.
It's funny 'cause it's true.

“Godless Americans and Kay Hagan. She hid from cameras. Took godless money,” the ad's narrator also says. “What did Kay Hagan promise in return?”
Her SOOOOOUL -- wait, no, that doesn't work. A constitutional right to sleep in on Sundays?

I like this video of a hockey mom for Obama singing "Don't Speak for Me, Sarah Palin."
Oh, my, that's lovely. I'll be earwormed for the rest of the evening, but I'm good with that.

I get that the changover thing can be a chore, but paragraphs like this:
It is one of many moments that used to be relaxing but become something else when seen through a parent’s lens. Long plane rides are no longer about a stack of good magazines. Long car rides are no longer about leaving the direct route and finding an off-beat place for lunch. Your spouse being off at a work dinner no longer means a chick flick for you, or a beer with friends.
make me think he thinks a lot of things about being a parent are a chore.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm not a parent, but I think the first and third things are just true. The middle point seems debatable to me.

I now own a big orange cat named Jake. Name change pending.
The people were very nice, and very sad to leave their cat. The wife had developed allergies and couldn't handle living with the cat anymore.

Yay, Sue! I'm glad the whole thing didn't end up as dramatic as it sounded like it could be...
Jesse'll tell you big orange boycats are great.
