Item Number One: Krugman wins the Nobel Prize in economics!*
Item Number Two: Rapunzel Sarah proclaims her joy in being found completely innocent!
Item Number Three: My new gay boyfriend alludes to my paranoid email in a subsequent post (maybe)!
My influence:
I’ve posted his major speeches in full for the past eighteen months. His latest – given today [...]
Remember when the worst thing about Sarah Palin was how dumb she seemed? Like back in these days, when it seemed like she just wanted to use her God-given talents to do the best for herself (and therefore our nation and humankind, because she’s got something of a Trinity complex going, no?)?
Those were such good [...]
I sent Andrew Sullivan* another one of my crazy emails just now. Thought some of you might enjoy my work trying to share my paranoid vision of the universe.
Andrew,
Do not underestimate the role of Obama’s speech today on the market. Seriously. The Times Lede spent a good number of inches this morning on the concept [...]
I know some of you are a little concerned about my apparent lack of interest in the Familiar Stranger recently. Never fear: not a moment goes by when my love does not grow stronger. I even love the guy who spoofs My Man Joe on SNL. (Ask Tech Support Guy. He’ll tell you that I [...]
When I was a kid, there was a show on Channel Thirteen (known as PBS to most people) called “Hodgepodge Lodge.” Obviously, it wasn’t much of a show, because no one ever talks about it (and the Wikipedia entry is two sentences long. I think my cup of coffee’s entry is three.)

I’ll admit it–I’ve been all over the place the last couple of weeks. I haven’t posted anything on this site for over a week because every time I think, “Here it is, my grand pronouncement on Blabbedy Blah,” HOLY SHIT, INCOMING!
Don’t you think it’s been like M*A*S*H* lately? Like we’re all exhausted, frozen and still [...]
CNN News Brief interrupted All My (Grand)Children yesterday. Shocking developments.
Clip Number Ten: In Which It Is Revealed that Our Heroine Is a Delicate Flower, Held Against Her Will by Her Guardian’s Boorish Minions
(Sorry for the low quality. The Huffington Post has a better clip, but you can’t embed it. Thanks You Tube for liberating the [...]
But wait, it gets better.
Please tell me that I’m not crazy: Henry is doing everything in his power not to look at those lovely ankles. Is this meeting about world diplomacy or calves? By the look of things, I’m going with calves.
OK, I’ll admit it–I’m obsessed. The Familiar Stranger has swept me off my feet! And I’m beginning to wonder if there are other ladies like me out there. Ladies who yearn to hear sweet nothings in their ears. Sweet nothings that LAY THE HAMMER ON GRANDPA McANGRYPANTS, for example.
The Familiar Stranger arrives in town. At [...]
Because I’m powerless over Daily Kos and my life has become unmanageable, I went over and checked the site earlier this afternoon. And guess what, K Street Prophet had posted another fantastic diary about Joe.
Plus, there’s video of Joe at the Pro Football Hall of Fame!
Ladies and gentlemen, I am telling you; this guy is [...]
