Big Ol' Smitty

That was some great insight by Jessica Alba.

Leave Marvin Alone!

The fact that he wasn't liked by these nutters tells me that he was a voice of of reason in a sea of batshit craziness: This was on a National Review cruise, I think.

That Mitt Romney one was good, floyd. Check it:

Weren't the shopkeepers in Secret of Mana rabbits or something?

To look down and see your name in "Today's Top 20 Posters". Can we have this feature removed before it leads to a suicide attempt?

Scroty. It's back on.

Mark Warner should be Obama's running mate. Lots of experience, would probably add a state for Obama, doesn't affect the balance of power in the senate, and gives himself something to do while he decides whether or not to run himself in 2012 or 2016. Mark Warner is running for the Senate right now.

Jim Webb's name gets thrown around a lot on the internets.

This NYT-McCain thing is interesting for a couple of reasons. First of all, I could give a shit less about whether or not he had an affair. He is an admitted adulterer (cheated on his first wife), but I don't really care that much about that, since McCain hasn't been one of those Moral Majority types (despite his recent embrace of Falwell prior to his death) for the most part. What is more interesting is the implication that Mr. Maverick may have done favors for lobbyists, something which he has vehemently denied. I want to read more about what his role was in the whole Keating Five scandal now. To Jerk, I think the 2008 general election will be close regardless, but I think Obama will be much more competitive against McCain than Clinton. This is one of the main reasons that I joined the Cult of Obama.

Remember the Clinton campaign's accusations of "plagiarism" toward Obama?

What happened? Faculty meetings tend to suck in general--just a forum to be bitched at by administration and to hear teachers bitch about everything. This one was just particularly bad. Communication between administration and faculty tends to be a major problem at the school where I teach, as does micromanagement from the county board of education.

I like a lotta that crap.

My pay isn't actually that bad, with my Masters Degree. My wife is also a teacher with an MA, so we are doing quite well financially right now (no debts, low bills). I just don't like teaching very much, and today's faculty meeting absolutely cemented that for me. Teachers probably make less than similarly highly educated people, though.

SWERVE~! This article is by Armstrong Williams, the guy the Bush administration was paying to shill for No Child Left Behind on the radio.

What Dobbs said. You & I are agreeing way too much lately, brother.

No, especially if you're not that interested in it.
