I've been here since Sara was a few months old and she'll be nine in November. And ... I still think of myself as a newbie.
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

Seriously, Kansas? Kansas panel delays ballot decision on Obama
It just embarrassing though, admittedly, Kansas voters are completely irrelevant to the presidential election.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I...wow. Kansas WTF.

Sophia,
NPR has a story podcast that you might like. On The Media is pretty good, but I want to throw crap at it once a month. Radiolab is good, but does not come out often enough.
KCRW "The Business" - Entertainment related.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I sort of hate-listen to the Slate Culture Gabfest
OMG. Me too. Though I haven't listened to it in about a month. Stephen Metcalf in particular is such an ass.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Thanks! I have listed to all the Radiolab already, but the others sound good. I used to listen to Wait Wait, and I am not sure why I stopped and forgot about it!

I...wow. Kansas WTF.
I know. And it's so pointless, I mean, ...spoiler warning... , Romney is going to win Kansas. If the GOP ran an actual elephant it would win Kansas.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
One of my co-workers asked me if we had a thing from an author and I said he never gave it to us, and I wasn't going to chase him down with a stick for it.
He replied, "C'mon, if you could go after some of these guys with a stick, you would. You'd probably use a bat."
It's nice to be understood.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
To be fair, if someone ran an actual elephant, I might have to vote for it.

Sophia -- I listen to the How Stuff Works guys, and the affiliated podcasts, Stuff You Missed in History Class and Stuff Mom Never Told You (which is feminism-lite, with a lot of history and science and culture and gender talk). They're not all awesome, but most of them are SFW.
UT Austin and North Dakota State Univ. have both evacuated their entire campuses in response to bomb threats. WTF people.
