Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The View - The View - become one of the harder hitting interview programs on tv? Because it's warping my worldview

According to Jezebel.com, right around HRC's bid. Maybe even before that, but that's when they started getting press for being no-nonsense.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

someone did a whole piece this election cycle on when things get down to it, comedians do the best serious interviews because they get right to the points and don't back away.

t not really here, am in bed.

How long does it take a first class letter to get to Paris?

For whoever asked this, I usually give letters to France a week, but to Paris proper it is probably quicker than that.

ETA: If you have something that needs to go quickly there used to be a small (business-envelope-size) flat rate priority envelope that was $5 bucks or so. Don't know if they still have it.

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

I just ordered some Docs. I needed some, but I hadn't exactly planned on buying before Christmas.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I clearly need to update my TiFaux for Leverage and order some Docs.

And watch TDS again.

Our wings are not tired

He's clearly got some weird-ass shit going on in his head where your rights aren't really being violated enough to matter until you're bloody in the streets (which, hello, not like it's never happened).

Yeah, tell that to Matthew Shepard's family. His rights were pretty much battered. Huckabee made my blood boil watching that Segment, and I wanted to marry Jon Stewart.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think I need those boots, but I don't think they come in my size, which is a good thing.

My body seems to have decided that it likes 3 to 3.5 hour chunks of sleep. Last night I got two of them, but I think I may be SOL on a third, even though I have time for one still.

“Not dead yet!”

I always want to marry Jon Stewart. Luckily, I already have a brilliant, hysterically funny, prematurely graying, short Jewish man in my bed, so I don't have to turn into Stalker Girl.

I'll have to catch the clips later today--

The boots are way cool. Someone needs to buy them.

I need more coffee.

“Not dead yet!”

cereal: You have to love a column on the Blago sitch that begins,

In the great annals of "What Was He Thinking?" (political edition), the case of Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich sets a new standard -- for its breathtaking stupidity, venality and illegality.

Another choice tidbit:

Blagojevich, it seems, figured he was a Master of the Universe, immune from the scrutiny he should have known he was under.

Ex-minion and I were trying to come up with an analogous period of corruption yesterday. Stevens and Palin aren't even in this league. Huey Long? At least he accomplished some things, and people liked him. Ulysses S. Grant? Drunk and incompetent, closer. Really though, I think we're into full on Boss Hogg territory.
