Around the Blogroll (and elsewhere)
Posted by Jill | 6:59 AM
Here's what you should be reading today:

Andy Ostroy on Media Castration during the Bush Presidency. (And just as an aside, he thinks Al Gore is going to announce a presidential run in September. Mark your calendar. If he's right, then things get interesting.)

Maryscott O'O'Connor recaps the latest banning brouhaha that apparently went down over at Le Grand Orange (now with extra Skippy, who shows that Kos the Great and Terrible isn't being as magnanimous by allowing individual blogrolls as he says).

If you haven't been reading Poor Impulse Control in the days since Tata's dad begin hospice care at home, don't miss it. You'll laugh, you'll cry -- sort of like what Tata is doing. Picture Art Buchwald's hospice salons on hallucinogens and you'll sort of get the picture.

Pierre Tristram has some thoughts on the impact of Elizabeth Edwards' illness on her husband's campaign. I'm not sure I'm as fatalistic as he is, and I sure as hell don't think this is about John Edwards being too ambitious to care for a sick wife.

Melina puts Marc Maron's e-mail that he is once and for all, definitively and irrevocably finished with Air America Radio into perspective. (Now with added parrots!)

Knut, the orphaned polar bear cub in Germany, has his own blog! It's in German, but you can't have everything. (h/t: Tami)

If this doesn't make your cranium explode from a lethal combination of teh joy and teh cuteness, then you are not human:



Look at the goofy expression on this newscaster's face as he introduces the story, and on the face of everyone in these video segments. I'll be you look like this right now too. I know I do.
