You mean he plans out what to say in advance????
I have to admit it was weird to see that he had one when he spoke to that sixth-grade class the other day. Do they all do that?
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Pretty much everyone I've ever worked for wouldn't speak before any size group without a script, and I can see preferring the teleprompter to notecards, if you can get one! Which he can.

That was awkward - I think he'd have been better off making the speech in the auditorium to the whole school and maybe having a photo-op Q&A in the classroom afterwards.
Which he can.
Cause he IS the president.
But 6th graders?
Then again, I can see it now "Is the President smarter than a 6th grader?"
Also, randomly, since I had black tea today and am wired on caffeine....
I feel really strongly that all of the people 6 years ago who were waving the flag of "you're anti-patriotic" need to be called on the carpet for their b.s. about not supporting Obama. Like it or not, he is the president. Disagree with him sure. But a hitler mustache or a joker make up job is just so....I don't know... disrespectful.
His office should be owed an iota of respect and that just seems to not be happening.
I want someone on the right to be Ainsley Hayes (Haynes?)!
I'm watching last night's Daily Show and I just did a spit take with the Democratic Possum.

Absolutely.
AP reporting that JD Salinger has died.
WTF, world? January is not good for famous people.
Have any Chicagoans ever watched or participated in the Chitidarod? It's a great idea--teams of five people pull a grocery cart along a route through the city and, at the finish line, have to have at least 40 pounds of food in the cart for food pantries. The rules page is very fun to read:
We have one, too, and it is fucking hilarious to watch.
ION, I spent 3 hours -- THREE HOURS! -- today fighting with my FTP client (Cyberduck). It worked wonderfully for years, and decided yesterday that it no longer likes our printing company's FTP site.
I gave up and downloaded a different program (OneButton FTP), which works just fine. Damn. That's half my day shot, and I haven't even picked up a manuscript yet.
