A hiatus.
R and I will be in Poland for the next week.
It's kind of silly to think that anyone will know that we are gone, but it's nice to think that I should leave something to say we've left.
If you'll notice, I've added the commenting option to this site. If you bother to register with Blogger, you should be able to comment about how sad you are that I am not here (don't worry, I've never ever ever received a piece of junkmail from Blogger, Google or anyone there-affiliated).
See you in a week!

Finally! The Supreme Court makes a ruling I agree with. Who knew that prisoners would actually be allowed to see lawyers?

Featured in a Washington Post article, a new study on cosmetics has this site which let's you enter in the different junk you use to make yourself pretty and find out how deadly it is on a scale from 1 to 10.
I linked to this before I entered in my Nivea aftershave and was told that it was a 9.3 (10 is the most deadly). It's the most deadly shaving product tested! I no longer recommend using this site. It will make you smell worse.
Wait, it gets worse. The site lets you find all of the different products that you use and add them to a summary of all of your stuff. Next year I can only assume that they'll be able to tell you the exact day and time of your death. I'm screwed, by the way.

Slate Magazine boils Clinton's book down to one page. I'm sure there was more to it, but there's so much out there to read, this might just have to suffice.
And remind me to remind myself to check out media matters.
There was some great commentary about water privatization on Air America Radio this morning which directed me to www.wateractivist.org.

This election year, let's all write a letter to the election supervisors for each county in florida asking them not to use the same lists of "inelligble" voters that were handed to them by a partisan db corp.
And why have I not been linking to salon more often?

I got bored on Saturday and happened to notice that Ben Kingsley looks a lot like the President of Afghanistan, Hamid Karzai. Karzai's country produces tons of dope and bush wants tons of oil, hence the new title:

And that Beastie Boys show I mentioned yesterday sold out in about 2 minutes... tickets were on $15. Aaarg.

remind me to listen to these tomorrow
And this is here to see if I can insert a picture from another website.
Hey neato! I had no idea that I could do that. Now I can put pictures on my webspace from starpower and link to them on this site. Lame! There's going to be a barrage of pictures inserted now.
The truly amazing thing about Reagan's death is that all of the media's fawning over him is actually making me start to think that he was a well-spoken and charismatic president. Bush seems to be charismatic, but frat-boy charismatic; that frustrating "I'm better than you, but I'll talk to you because you can get me somewhere" kind of charismatic. The last thing ue could be called is well-spoken. Maybe that's why voters like him. He fails spectacularly at every public speaking engagement to help the average Joe overcome his own crowd-o-phobia.

Attention DC Folks
The metro is going to raise rates for trips from 2am to 3am on Friday and Saturday.
Read the Docket and then write in to explain that raising rates will only serve to decrease the number of passengers and increase the number of kids driving home drunk (instead of taking the metro to a parking lot and driving home from the parking lot drunk).
I have some stuff to ponder with the resignation of George Tenet being announced today. More amusing is Al Jazeera's coverage of the story and the pictures they have of Tenet compared to others.
There's also a lot to ponder regarding this whole Chalabi debacle and it's odd coincidence with the resignation of Richard Perle who was gunning for Saddam and is defending Chalabi, who he introduced to Dick Cheney in the first place.
Not to mention Bush consulting lawyers. Hope my taxes aren't paying for that...
