Around the Blogroll and Elsewhere
Posted by Jill | 3:17 PM
Because it's Sunday, it's 94 degrees with a heat index of 104, we were up late standing through 129 permutations of the Bergen County School of Rock (I kid you not) before Adrian Belew came on last night at Mexicali Live (where the air conditioning was on the fritz) and I'm so tired I can't see straight, and the thought of spending yet another day proofing for consistency yet another data dictionary full of questions about anal sex (that mention will get me some Google traffic for sure) makes me want to crawl into bed for the next week.

First, a taste of the Adrian Belew Power Trio in what had to be a more comfortable venue performing a Big King Crimson Hit with a Bullet:




Then, Ornery Bastard gets in touch with his inner Niecy Nash.

John Aravosis wants to know why John McCain is getting $58,000 a year in disability payments when he's voting against similar benefits for today's war veterans. Is McCain a narcissist too? Is it all about HIM?

Richard Blair has some thoughts on oil market maniuplation, and smells a rat.

Batocchio on the Fist Bump Heard Round the World.

Princess Sparkle Pony on JimmyJeff GannonGuckert's retraction of his veiled threat to tell all about Scott McClellan. Which makes me wonder what Scotty knows that he hasn't told us, and about whom. My money's still on George W. "Dress Up Like ALL Of The Village People" Bush.

Yup, Him too.

Louise at Pam's House Blend prepares for $200/barrel oil. Too bad I have a shady yard or I'd start growing vegetables too. The 2-zone propane sounds interesting too, except that propane has gone sky-high here too. Before it's all over I'll be IM-ing Melina and begging for eggs.

Yeesh. TRex scared me there for a minute. John Cole, too. Heartless bastards. It all seems to stem from this. I guess LOLCats are just SO 2007. When you're north of 50, you don't pick up fads the way you used to.

Grab the icepick before stopping by this at Media Matters, because you're going to want to perform a lobotomy on yourself after watching the video. it doesn't matter if the Fox News Bots are the stupidest fucking people on the face of the planet -- there are people out there who will believe it. Here's why:

Oh, I've been downgraded to "Him", now? What the fuck am I, Castro? He Who Shall Not Be Named?
