Back to Work
Is half a Who better than none? I’m thinking no, but then maybe it’s just ‘cuz it seemed really odd to see Pete and what’s his face reduced to doing a “medley” (not to mention there’s something kinda pathetic about a couple of pensioners singing about “teenage” anything). What’s next? Vegas? Or maybe Roger Daltrey will cut an album of duets with Sarah McLachlan. Otherwise, though, it was a very entertaining football game, though I’d have appreciated it if they’d started (and ended) a little bit earlier. I skipped through all the commercials ’til I caught up to real time toward the end. I saw one commercial that I thought was pretty funny, though. It was something to do with a guy joining a woman’s book club, and one woman asks the guy, “so, do you like Little Women?” And he says, “yeah, I’m not fussy.”
What is it with New York’s Governors? The latest speculation is that Gov David Paterson will resign as soon as a NY Times story on some sort of sex scandal runs. Rumors I’ve heard are that Paterson and his wife are “swingers,” which, believe it or not, is a class B misdemeanor in NYS (not the swinging, per se, but the adultery part), punishable by a $500 fine or 90 days in jail. I think we’ve finally found a way to wipe out our deficit. If Paterson goes, I want Spitzer back. And please, sweet Jeebus, let there be no sex tape.
House Democrats have cranked out a pretty interesting chart detailing the job losses during this and the previous administration.
Republicans immediately responded with a chart of their own.
The liberal media dutifully reported that there was a dispute between Republicans and Democrats over which administration oversaw more job losses.
Oh well, seeing as I’m not one of those who lost their job (yet), I reckon I’d better go to work. If both weekend days combined would only last half as long as one work day, I’d be happy. At least I didn’t have to shovel anything.
