Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Good lord, the man looks like an Oompa-Loompa

I googled "Charlie Crist Oompa Loompa", and, well, you're not the first person to make that observation.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Funniest bit from aurelia's link:

He [the Lt. Governor] added he had not talked to Blagojevich since 2007.

I mean seriously, y'all.

Punishingly Intricate

The Lt. Gov hasn't spoken to the Gov in almost a year? ?!

It's all so crazy!!!! and his biggest political enemy, I understand, is his father-in-law?

What a soap opera!

Well, that's a long list, but the father-in-law (also a major Illinois pol) is definitely on it.

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

Flirting With Forty is based on a Jane Porter novel and Jane wrote it after she got divorced, went to Hawaii and met a hot surfing instructor nine years her junior.

With whom she's now expecting a baby at age 44.

::sniff sniff::

That is the most beautiful story I have ever heard.

Our wings are not tired.

erika, I watched a movie called 25th Hour over the weekend. It wasn't very good, but Clay was in it! And guess what?? He said "sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit" about a thousand times! I never knew the actor brought it to The Wire ; thought it was the opposite.

Our (NY/NJ) governors seem so wholesome today!

Seriously, I haven't lost so much work time to political folly watching since Gov Spitzer. Bless them for the entertainment value, if not for having actual values.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

His biggest political enemy is probably Speaker of the House Madigan (who happens to be the Atty Gen Lisa Madigan's father) but his father-in-law is certainly not low on the list.
