Very satisfying and hilarious.
At first it didn’t work, but then it did– it’s quite satisfying.
So you know how Google offers a list of common searches when you start typing into the box at google.com? Go there and type in “Bill O’Reilly is” and see what comes up…it’s pretty hilarious.
Hey Marsh - how about this for a trick pool shot

Merry Christmas everyone!
Here’s a salvo in the ongoing battle about who is the greatest NBA player of all time: Wilt Chamberlain or Michael Jordan.
http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/27596147
It’s the list of players who have scored 50 or more points in a game… and how many times they’ve done it.
#3 on the list: Kobe Bryant, 23 times. Very impressive.
#2 on the list: Michael Jordan, 30 times! Incredible!
#1 on the list: Wilt Chamberlain… 105 times.
I reviewed “August: Osage County” on the New York Times website! You should too — it gets 4 and a half stars out of 5 from readers!! My review isn’t posted as of posting this comment, but go here and do it!!

Thanks, that was really comprehensive, but so depressing . . .
Great analysis of what happened on Wall Street, very readable even for novices like me.

evvie hit “edit” and can you put the link to the complaint, you accidentally put the same link in.
I haven’t seen any transcripts or anything. It’ll be interesting to hear what Dad has to say since he was in Chicago
Anyone interested in this Rod Blagojevich thing? I, personally, find it completely hilarious. This guy is SO. DUMB.
I had actually read a great in-depth profile of the guy, in which several people who know him privately describe him as a “sociopath” (and they say they’re not exaggerating.)
http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/February-2008/Mr-Un-Popularity/index.php?cp=1&si=0#artanc
From the allegations now leveled against him, I’d have to agree with those people. He seems to act just like a sociopath in that he has absolutely no concept of consequences. His attempts at corruption are comically inept. Check out the criminal complaint here:
http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2008/1209081rod1.html
(whoops, sorry. this is actually a different link than i had before, which was just the full complaint. that is really great reading, but the smoking gun has condensed some of the best stuff involving obama’s senate seat.)
a-HA! What sayest thou…TO THIS??

this looks like a neat download — Marshall what do you think?

Yeah Mom, I saw that. Those voters kind of suck at voting, I must say.
On another note, check out this cool new drug that puts jet lag to rest. It basically resets your circadian rhythms completely. It’s still in testing, of course, but if it ends up going on the market it’ll be pretty useful to travelers like dad!
Since we’re so enamored with the President-Elect, here’s an illustration of another President-Elect that you’ll be enamored with.

The article is fascinating as well. This President-Elect comes from a humbler background than our current President-Elect. Read all about it.
Which candidate did this voter intend to vote for? Franken or Coleman– here’s a neat website showing challenged optical-scanned ballots.
Where’s the podcast?
We want the podcast, we want the podcast!
Good? I was fantastic!
I heard it. You were good.
I continue my quest to radio stardom with my 4th radio show, I’ll post the podcast as soon as I find it.
Funny and appropriate Marsh
So the Mormons have this ridiculously stupid practice called “postumous baptism” where they find dead people and “convert” them to Mormonism. It’s terrible, especially when some of the convertees are Jewish Holocaust victims. Anyway, this guy came up with an awesome response: he’s finding dead Mormons and converting them to homosexuality.
well, Obama is asking for reconciliation, not recrimination
The good news is that Ted Stevens just lost his Senate seat in Alaska, so the Dems have 58 seats with 2 still disputed.
The bad news is that the weak-spined Dem Senate leadershi* decided not to strip Joe “Scumbag” Lieberman of his powerful Chair position of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee.
Yeah, I get annoyed every time I see the Live Strong ads. But hey, Obama still won!
Lance Armstrong is a liar and a crook.

He recently made his big “come-back” but now is frantically trying to think of ways to avoid the Tour de France and its newer and more effective steroid detection policies. His latest excuse is that he “fears for his safety.” Give me a break, you cheating jerk-o loser.
Go Kurt Go!! By the way, he’s playing as well as his incredible 1999-2001 stretch, which statistically was the best 3-year run of any QB in NFL history.
Lieberman’s day of reckoning is supposed to be tomorrow morning:
http://rawstory.com/news/2008/Lieberman_fate_to_be_decided_Tuesday_1117.html
In my opinion, the Dems should boot him out even if they do win 60 seats and Lieberman’s vote would be meaningful in the so-called super-majority. Read my lips: boot the guy out, now.
Here are President-elect Obama and Senator McCain meeting today in Chicago:

Of particular interest to the Crumiller family: skip to 00:48 to hear our new President’s thoughts on a certain former shelve-stocking Hi-V employee!
New book by Malcolm Gladwell!

It’s called “Outliers” and it’s about why successful people are successful.
Looks awesome!
For all you feminists out there, I think it’s appropriate to note that journalistic warhorse Helen Thomas, who has been taking names since 1920, returned to the White House press briefing room after being out with health issues for a couple of months.
I love Helen Thomas, she doesn’t take crap from anyone!! Of course, the Bush White House never calls on her. However, President Bush DID call on her for the first time in three years in 2006. Here is the question she asked:
“I’d like to ask you, Mr. President, your decision to invade Iraq has caused the deaths of thousands of Americans and Iraqis, wounds of Americans and Iraqis for a lifetime. Every reason given, publicly at least, has turned out not to be true. My question is: Why did you really want to go to war? From the moment you stepped into the White House, from your Cabinet—your Cabinet officers, intelligence people, and so forth—what was your real reason? You have said it wasn’t oil—quest for oil, it hasn’t been Israel, or anything else. What was it?”
My eyesight is failing. A headline read “No Charges for Spitzer” but I thought it said “Ho Charges for Spitzer.”

This is one of the best arguments I’ve seen for pro-life people to vote for Obama.

really funny video of Palin
weird! how did he lose them? too bad- they were really silly.
Dexie and Tashy are as cute as ever. Dexie is becoming super-cuddly and cutie. Tashy is going through a phase of not liking me. I think he is jealous; he gets jealous when arastu gives dexie affection. maybe he thinks of me as a peer instead of a human. So, I’ve been trying to win his affection by giving him treats.
Kitty Report: Benko has lost all of his prominent white eyebrow hairs that stuck out like whiskers above his eyes. I hadn’t noticed them unitl Susan pointed out how funny they looked.
This morning Benoni got her thumb claws stuck in the little things that hold the lamp “harp” that holds the lampshade of the lamp by the couch. She was holding on to them while poking her head up toward the light bulb– we don’t know why she likes to do this but she does. I don’t know what would have happened if I hadn’t noticed she was stuck and pulled her paws out for her.
How are Susan and Arastu’s kitties?
