my neighbor had jury duty yesterday, and if i heard him correctly, they had wifi available while you wait but they charge $8 for the privilege. i wonder how much they charged for air. glad to see commerce alive and well in the halls of justice. although i was excited to hear it said that if you bring a guilty verdict, you get a free metro card and twofers for the matinee performance of spamalot.

"If you really want to hurt your parents, and you don’t have the nerve to be a homosexual, the least you can do is go into the arts. But do not use semicolons. They are transvestite hermaphrodites, standing for absolutely nothing. All they do is show you’ve been to college." ¯ Kurt Vonnegut

SHELLEY BERMAN, the veteran actor and comedian, balled up a fist and held it against one of his ears. "This is the way you hold a phone," he said. "This" - he extended his thumb and pinky in imitation of a telephone receiver - "is ridiculous! This is not how you hold a phone."

richter's mustangs at goodman
The very definition of strategery -- I woke to the Preznit's speech about his strategery for winification in Iraq. What a steaming bucket of shite! How does this twit have a shred of credibility left? NPR had Sen. Feingold to respond. (Hey, Wisconsin, wanna swap a Feinstein for a Feingold?) The Repub on the panel was some US Rep from Fla. Her non-sequitor was "well we weren't in Iraq on 9/11" I screamed at the radio, "yeah, well we weren't in Iraq on fucking December 7, 1941, but what the fuck does that have to do with anything?"

All in all, a shitty way to wake up.

Can we have a vote of no confidence? Now?

Every time you delve into the situation in Iraq, you come away with the phrase "not enough troops" ringing in your head, and I hope someday we will find out how this travesty came about.


I know Atrios blogged on this two days ago, but the Brooks piece just appeared in my local paper. I was eating lunch, and almost did a spit take when I came to this sentence. How can a man so profoundly stupid be so prominent in the media?
