Stranger Danger

I think it’s safe to say that I’m in love with Joe Biden.
Joe Biden is so awesome, just reading what he said yesterday makes me want to tell all seven of my faithful readers about him. For example:
“John McCain says he wants to spend another $130 billion this year to give tax breaks to people [...]

Ladies and Gentlemen

Could it be, that while the media whipped us into a frenzy over All My (Grand)Children, there was a better show on a different network? Could it be that some in the media are changing the channel? Instead of asking, “Where is Joe Biden?” (last week’s popular refrain), perhaps they should be wondering, “Why aren’t [...]

Aftermath Ike

There are days when even I can understand why Sarah Palin believes she’s qualified to be vice president. They come when I foresee a situation and think of strategies for dealing with it, even though the situation remains hypothetical. Some people call this process “planning.”
Today, Aftermath Ike hit Texas. And part of me wanted to [...]

It’s an Oldie but a Goodie

Apparently, the girl just can’t help it. There you go, again.

Mr. Clean

You know what’s really great about the Meltdown on Wall Street? It gives Grandpa McAngrypants something else to clean up. Having another mess, one with global consequences and triggers we really can’t predict, since the people of the Earth (which is what I think I’ll start calling the reality based community) have never been able [...]

And Now a News Update: Sisters to the North Jumpstart Hope (Film at 11)

It’s been a strange weekend, with Ike hitting Galveston and Houston. 4 million people without power just a couple of hours away and all of us here in Austin feeling strangely irritated because, in the middle of a terrible drought, we got zero rain. But zero hurricane was a blessing. So, God must be looking [...]

Tango and Cash, Part Deux

Had to rush this to press because the likelihood of video being up for more than 24 hours is slim. More clips and a somber post on why I didn’t much feel like fucking with Sarah Palin today to come some other hour. Two and a half hour Red Cross volunteer sign up process might [...]

By Truth and Toil

A classmate of mine from the Exclusive Upper East Side Girls School I attended for twelve fun-filled years was an early responder to the Palin emergency. C. was the first to sound the national alarm in my inbox on August 29th*. She’s a lawyer with Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund. When I read the email, [...]

Another Tasty Morsel

Here’s another clip that really helped me make it through the day. I actually saw this on TV last night. Was recording Obama on Letterman (the un-McAngryPants–will try to post a clip for those of you who wake up and get on the treadmill at 5:30 am, thus missing the world of late night TV. [...]

Late Night Goodies

I’m going to put up a few quick posts with links to YouTube clips or other people’s blogs. I’ve been meaning to do this all week, but for some reason, acting like a real blogger is difficult for me. Doing it means that I’m working on this thing not just for myself but for some [...]
