As usual, Google raises the bar for April Fools. The Republican Budget is going to have to work hard to equal the awesomeness.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Simon Baker's American accent is a bit wobbly tonight.
I noticed that, too! I wish they would just stop making him try to play American.
I just took a claritin, which may do more harm than good, but jesus christ. I woke up unable to breathe and miserable, so we'll see.
Then I was listinging to This American Life about the recession, and it opened with a dentist talking about how many cracked teeth he's seeing, due to the grinding, and the rest of the stories made me grind my teeth! Ugh.
In short: CRANKY.

The person in front of me at the newsstand paid $11.00 for a pack of cigarettes this morning.

That person is crazy, and should shop around. Even my Wall Street newsstand charges $9.50.

OK, somebody should really make that. I suspect somebody is already working on the Squeeze Bacon. And I fear the ice dagger mold would give some people really BAD ideas.

...that's not any less @@ to me. (Since I don't smoke, I don't have any concept of what cigarettes cost. I assumed they were, like $3/pack. No, really.)
