Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, huh. Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen It's A Wonderful Life.

I like the reference to the German interrogator in Raiders of the Lost Ark myself. (The bit with the multi-part coat hanger was too perfect.)

Bush Street renamed Obama Street in SF

LOVE IT. It would be too much to hope it is still renamed when I'm out there in a few weeks.

NYT Caucus blog says that attendees at the luncheon were sure Kennedy had had a siezure, but that he was smiling and talking as he was wheeled out.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

They're saying that Kennedy is at Washington Hospital Center in stable condition.

I doubt anyone's going to rush to get those down.

Actually I'm surprised the change wasn't on our last ballot. Everything else seems to be.

Hey. New board.

This may be old news, but here's a Google Docs link to a slightly edited transcript of the speech: [link]

I was playing a game with myself where I bolded and italicized anything that I think might be a soundbite. You can play at home!

I loved this speech. More than anything I've heard Obama give.

ETA: If you want a word document of the same transcript, with columns for better readability on printing, ping me at my profile addy.
