May 31, 2011 – I don’t do the celebrity gossip, gut great googly moogly! Also, Meadowlark of Hyde Park? Never heard that.

May 30, 2011 – Go Todd go!
May 27, 2011 – Maybe Pogue’s dating life is worrisome. But is it more worrisome than the fact that he has appeared IN VENDOR BOOTHS at trade shows to give presentations on their behalf? I saw it happen, and no one said a thing.

May 25, 2011 – I’m sure they were very polite bombs, ay? /Canadian stereotype joke
May 25, 2011 – I hate when awesome places close, and I hope this does not bode ill for other awesome businesses on this North Loop strip.

May 25, 2011 – Um, yeah. Resource actions are occurring here.
May 25, 2011 – Um, yeah. Resource actions are occurring here.
May 25, 2011 – I’ve never seen this map. It’s very helpful.
May 25, 2011 – As interesting and accurate as it is to analyze the election result based on backlash over GOP overreach, the point not addressed here is the degree to which every whipsaw election result makes it harder to actually SOLVE PROBLEMS. The Ryan plan isn’t a good one, but the status quo is not sustainable. But who has won an election by arguing for a workable fix? No one. Politicians learn from this that scare tactics and misdirection will get them elected. And nothing gets fixed.
May 24, 2011 – The only conceivable reason to take this flight is to compare barbecue sauces.
May 24, 2011 – this legislative session is positively obsessed with animals.
May 24, 2011 – I am having such a flashback right now. Oh, my head!
May 24, 2011 – Headline: I often engage in theoretical downloading.
May 24, 2011 – Harumph! Whiny New Yorker. I live in a city with evening summer temperatures in the 90s. And yet, I enjoy watching movies outdoors. Of course, the best scenario is a kids’ movie played next to a swimming pool with inner-tube-clad people floating around. Now THAT’S fun.
May 24, 2011 – It’s wimpy to avoid getting hit by a flying baseball? That’s ridiculous. I always avoid flying objects. I LIKE my brain. Also, this is a man who has had shoes thrown at him, so, like, he’s ben here before.
May 24, 2011 – This is why we need investigative journalism, people.
May 24, 2011 – Uh, really?
May 23, 2011 – Interesting that nowhere in either the Salon article, or the NYT article does the subject of price come up. The color Nook is HALF the price of the cheapest iPad. Chicks luv savings, you know. BTW, my brother-in-law just got a Nook, and my sister an iPod Touch. So put that in your conventional wisdom and smoke it!

May 19, 2011 – Well, we might not have a budget, but by golly, we do have noodling and the pork chopper bill. So, um, yay?
