Norwegians are following buses in Chicago?

Yep.

The chat board on kitty cam needs to go.

Blago is doing all the media he can.

I admit that I'm amused at his tactic of not being present at his own impeachment procedings.

Now, assuming that he's impeached (because -- good god), he seems like the kind of nutbar who will barricade himself in his office with a shotgun and a case of moonpies and an old cassette of Dark Side of the Moon. Am I right?

Seriously, if he's impeached, he doesn't seem likely to actually, you know, vacate office. So what happens when someone does that? Is that when law enforcement shows up to drag them, kicking and screaming and clutching their case of moonpies, off to jail?

Because I *really* want to see that. It's not just the sleep-dep talking.

Jess and Jessica and Teppy, and, well, everybody who doesn't - I hope you feel better, and soon.

Hopefully, this will cheer you up a bit (and, um, not be considered as spam, even though it's related to the same Facebook application - my sister's - I posted about last week in Press): my oh-so-talented brother wrote up instructions.

I'm just proud to be in the same gene pool, even though I have none of either's talents.

I don't understand how anyone could think it's a good idea to hire Drew Peterson's PR firm.

For those not following along at home, so far this weekend we've learned that: his arrest was just like the attacks on Pearl Harbor but he knows he can get through all this because Gandhi, King, and Mandela faced similar challenges and triumphed.

The Daily Show is saved!

William Kristol just wrote his last column for the NY

And it's basically a mealy-mouthed version of Rush's "I hope Obama fails". Wanker. Not that I'm surprised.

I think it was Cordelia who said it best, "Oooh, those grapes taste sour."

Hoo-ray!

Happy Birthday, Frisco!

I'm remembering why I don't usually take cold medicine. I took a Tylenol Cold this morning to clear out my nose before getting on the subway (if my sinuses are too clogged I get motion sick going underground and on elevators) and I feel like my head is about to float away. I can't concentrate on anything and my eyes are having trouble focusing. (This is possibly why I have never done any illegal drugs. If fucking sudafed can make me feel this high, I fear the effects of anything stronger.)

I took some cold medicine a couple of weeks ago, and had a very similar experience. I should just throw the stuff away, because every so often I think not taking it would be worse, and I am always wrong.

During the three governors controversy, Georgia had two men who claimed to be governor and an existing governor who refused to leave until the controversy was settled. [link] There were state troopers, lock-changing, fist fights and competing governors' offices involved. Having other states' governments be as embarrassing as Georgia's fills me with glee.

I swear it's almost enough to make me go over to Free Republic and wallow in the wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Almost, but life's too short.

There's a women's health clinic across the street and down a few doors from my comic-book store. Whenever I go in the middle of the day to pick up my comics, there's always one middle-aged man faithfully protesting in front of the women's clinic, with his minivan draped with protest signs parked right across the street from the clinic.

So on Friday when I went to pick up my comics, there was a tiny sign on the door of the comics store saying "Back in 5 minutes!" So I sat in the car, contemplating whether to go give the protester shit. And then I realized that he was probably having his worst week in EIGHT YEARS.

So I didn't. But I did wallow in the schadenfreude.
