And Olbermann staged the world's first BNF Internet flounceoff.(Complete with obligatory shame-faced return...I was a little embarrassed for him, actually. Cliche much?)
Whoa! When did this happen? and what's a BNF?
I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

"No, that's insane... Nobody would.."
"I still win."
I can't decide if I want to COMM this or cry.

I didn't mention it, at the time because it lasted a day and a half, max.(And it's embarrassing when one of your primary lust objects acts like a fourteen-year-old "If you like this, I'll write more," girl.) Obama delivers tepid Gulf speech...Olbermann climbs downs his throat like a laryngoscope...factions complain, on both sides...I think they both have a point, but then things just BLEW UP. Somebody said "corporate shill" once too often or something, despite the fact that,to hide how much we heart the famous people coming on there, they always have to do that. So, KO, who never met a bait he didn't rise to on his best day(and who has lost his parents within six months, to be fair) writes a diary and stalks off like he is One of Us. Except he's not. Websites from all over cover it, and he ends up apologizing anyway. Yikes. ETA: The low point was when he said we'd have plenty of time to think of that when he was replaced by a wingnut host. And, yeah, Connie, I couldn't get over people defending a flounce-off as the sign of a "toxic atmosphere" and.. I can act the fool on the internet because nobody knows me. You know? So of course Red State had this thing "Even Wacko Left Sick of Olbermann," like I need to know what's on Erik Ericson's mind ever.

Because Sources Are Our friends: Politico covers The Flounceoff [link] and the return, by mediaite [link] So much Drama. Politics is fandom for ugly people. Without fangs or Spock ears.ETA: Cass, you could do both. The whole time I'm thinking "If I just made $7 Million last year, I would *so* not be doing that."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
So I read Grammar Girl on farther vs further and I understand farther refers to physical distance and further metaphorical. Although a lot of people think it's OK to use the words interchangaby I still try to be as correct as possible. Is time physical or metaphorical? Did Marty McFly go farther or further back in time?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Is time physical or metaphorical?
Both! Neither! Just a big ball of timey-wimey stuff!
