Longtime readers know that really, I only watch Countdown with Keith Olbermann to get my news every night. That, and Dateline, because I love watching Chris Hansen’s To Catch a Predator stings. Those guys are so funny.
Anyway, Keith’s coment last night was all about Condi.
On the Sunday morning interview show “Of Broken Record” on Fox, […]

This graf says it all:

What the hell is going on when that is apparently our biggest terrorist threat. If this is what we have to […]

Tomorrow, Jan. 9, the 80th Legislature begins work, new episodes of House begin on Fox… and I turn 24.
A momentous day. Almost as if it were the temporal junction point for the entire spacetime continum. Or a remarkable coincidence.
What’s on the agenda for the Lege? Well, they’ve still got a lot of work to do […]

Anyway, Laurie is being interviewed by Leno right now and I went over […]

Something in the vents is getting blown in the air in the newsroom and it set off an allergic reaction. I was leaking mucous like a sieve and I couldn’t breathe. Thanks to my pitiful look, someone gave me a couple of Sudafed for a nasal decongestant, something else that acts as an antihistamine, and […]

I have been lax of late with the blogging, I know. I didn’t even wish you guys a Happy Halloween yesterday, even though many longtime readers know that is my favorite holiday. A holiday that’s all about watching cheesy horror movies and eating candy, how could I not like it better than Christmas?
A few updates […]

All right, if hippies really want to they can.
