Hey, get up! It’s an hour later than you think it is.

I used to love this day, back when I was movie theatre manager/projectionist. When unsuspecting people would come to buy a ticket for the one o’clock show, you got to tell them that it started an hour ago. Then when they got all indignant and snotty, you could tell ’em, “uh, ever hear about daylight savings time, dude? It was, like, in all the papers.” Hah! Take that, ignorant, demanding, snotty consumers. Now you see the genius in my not changing the clock in my car last year!

Fortunately for you, if you’ve forgotten to set your clocks ahead, all you’ve missed out on is another round of the Sunday Boobleheads.

On Press the Meat, Timmuh has an “Exclusive!” with U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, Zalmay Khalilzad on the conference between the U.S., Iraq, Iran and Syria. Then, it’s a discussion about the “political fallout” over Walter Reed & the Libby verdict (because destroying a career CIA person working on WMD and having our wounded soldiers sit around in rat infested, urine soaked living conditions is, after all, all about politics) with presidential historian Michael Beschloss (who once wrote, “More than any other leader…save Eisenhower, Bush based his…campaigns for the presidency…on his persona as a leader of experience and character” – hah! Not that Bush; the old one), Time’s Michael Duffy (who, after the last election, declared that Republicans lost because they found themselves “spending like drunken Democrats“), fellow SU alum, Ted Koppel & one of the ever-narrowing field of WaPost (indeed, of all the traditional media) reporters that don’t suck, Dana Priest.

Over at Faze the Nation, Bush Buddy Booby Schieffer hosts another chat on Walter Reed and Scooter Libby (hey, how about they sentence him to ten years of changing bedpans for the VA) with senators Chuck Schumer, tough-talkin’, do-nothing Arlen Specter, and Claire McCaskill of Missouri.

At Fux News Sunday, with the growing realization that all the Republican candidates for president suck the big one, is it time to go to the bullpen and pull out NYC DA Arthur Branch (aka, former senator – and head of Scooter Libby’s defense fund – Fred Thompson)? After all, he’s got what Americans are looking for in a politician (they’ve seen him on the teevee). Then Weaselface Wallace will try and undercut Democrats by hosting the founder of the “Out of Iraq” Caucus in the House, Maxine Waters. Kick his ass, Maxine (and get Patty and LaVerne to help you).

Over at the Goebbels network, George Snufalufagus boasts an exclusive with Senator Jim Webb, who will talk about why we need to bring our troops back home, and why they shouldn’t have to live in filthy squalor when they get back here. In another “exclusive,” it’s co-chair of the Walter Reed cover-up commission, Bob Dole (who is looking more and more like the Phantom of the Opera – the Lon Chaney one, not that stupid Andrew Lloyd Webber crap. To quote Roger Waters, “Andrew Lloyd Webber sickens me. Phantom Of The Opera is absolutely fucking horrible from start to finish”). Then, at the Roundtable, it’s former Pentagon disinformation specialist (and Mary Matalin gal-pal), Torie Clarke, David Corn of The Nation, Fareed “token” Zakaria and, just in case things accidentally get exciting, George :jerk: Will. Finally, we’ll hear from Loretta Lynn, who looks nothing like Sissy Spacek (BTW, if you haven’t seen “Missing,” with Sissy and Jack Lemmon, you should really go out and rent it).

Over at CNN, it’s a very wet Late Emission from Wolf Blitzer, with the Iraqi Foreign Minister, Hose Your Zebra Hoshyar Zebari, Sen. Joe “yeah, you got a fuckin’ chance of getting elected president” Biden, Senator Lindsey “Cracker” Graham, of South Carolina, former Arkansas Governor and “presidential candidate” (in the fantasy world where he runs against Biden, and Ralph Nader gets more than 3% of the vote) Huckleberry Huckabee, CNN Senior Political hack (and “fellow” at the Konservative American Enterprise Institute) Bill Schneider, mastermind of Al Gore’s brilliant campaign for president in 2000, Donna Brazile, and former Bush propagandist, David “axis of evil” Frum (yet another American Enterprise Institute asshole).

Later, on 60 Minutes, Bob Simon reports on the wonderful coal industry and the widows its miners leave behind, Scott Pelley reports on the Iraqi translators and other people who have helped out the US since the occupation, and what happens to them (basically, they and their families get killed as collaborators, and of course the US won’t allow them to get the hell out and come here). Then Lesley Stahl takes a look at Dr. Steven Hatfill, who the FBI tried to finger for the Anthrax attacks (because they are apparently pretty clueless as to who might have actually done it), and who is now suing the bastards (which is how we have come to find out just how clueless they are).

And then there’s the usual Sunday night lineup, capped off, of course, by a new episode of Battlestar Galactica. Enjoy your Sunday – it’s a short one.

Supposed to be pretty warm here today, with maybe a little rain. Not too much, I hope, ‘cuz we really don’t need to be melting all this snow all at once. My main plan for today is to sit and watch my beer ferment. And maybe get empty out a few bottles, to make room for it when it’s done. It’s not like I have any Big East basketball worth watching. Just a week until everybody’s favorite holiday. Have a good Saturday.

Hey, they love that Bush down there in South America, don’t they? I think he ought to just stay down there. Send Cheney down there, too. I hope Bush makes a speech in his pigeon Spanish down there in Brazil (no knowing, of course, that they speak Portuguese down there). “¡Engáñeme avergüenzo una vez en, ajá, pues…do no obtiene, ajá…la vergüenza en…la vergüenza…uh, pues. ..do no es engañado otra vez!”

Have a good Friday.

Ah, Thursday, and I’m on Spring Break. I thought perhaps I’d go to Cancun and scope out the bikinis, but instead I think I’ll stay home and brew some beer. The DVD has me psyched – especially the part where the guy says, “pay careful attention to the measuring instructions here; too little, and your beer won’t carbonate in the bottle. Too much, and you’ll get two cases of hand grenades.”

Of course, this isn’t much of a break. I have some stupid thing to do for on class by midnight tonight, and then some more stupid things for my other classes all week. Break, my ass. More like bust my ass.

On the bright side, SU kicked the crap out of UCONN yesterday (and I even got to watch the game before class), and with any luck, they’ll kick the shit out of Notre Dame today. Have a good one.

So, big day yesterday. Scooter’s convicted, if not in prison just yet. Lots of interesting testimony in the House and Senate about all these fired US Attorneys. I doubt anything will come of it, but, hey, you never know. If the Democrats can just keep piling it on and investigating the hell out of these cretins, at the very least, maybe we can get a Lieberproof Senate Majority in ’08, and kick that weaselly motherfucker out the door, and across the aisle (as David Sirota wrote, he wishes Lieberman would just go ahead and switch parties and that “…his melting, Emperor-from-Star-Wars face would stop appearing on my television set and freaking out my dog, Monty“. At best, maybe Barbara Lee, Jerrold Nadler, Maurice Hinchey and the rest of the House Democrats’ progressive caucus will actually take the party back from the pandering “leadership.” One can only hope.

It’s hump day – go hump something.

It’s Tuesday, which is kinda like my Wednesday, since it’s the middle of my week, but it’s also kinda like my Thursday, ‘cuz tomorrow’s my Friday. Then again, it’s sorta like a Saturday, because I don’t have to actually go anywhere today, But then again, everyday is like a Monday, because I’m never done with this shit, and it never goes away. And I have some sorta bullshit thing I have get written up by midnight tonight, at the very least. Plus it’s colder than hell out. Wah, wah, wah.

On the bright side, my home brew kit is supposed to come today. Now I can dig all those empty bottles I’ve been saving out of the attic, and put ’em to use (it gets harder and harder to find non-twistoff bottles these days; that, more than anything else, is a prime indication of the wussification of America).

Have a good one.

So, it’s Monday again. Isn’t that special. Seems we’re headed back into winter again here, with a lot of wind and kinda cold. Oh, well, at least it’s March now. Just three or four months, and it’ll be spring again.

Well, here we go again.

On Press the Meat, Timmy Potatohead hosts a debate between John Murtha and Huckleberry Graham on the urge to surge. Plus, there’s WSJ hack John Harwood, and the WaPost’s Eugene Robinson.

Over on CBS, Bush buddy Bobby Schieffer hosts Democrat Carl Levin, and Republican Joey Lie-berman, plus the co-author of the WaPost’s article on the conditions at Walter Reed, Anne Hull.

Over at Fux News Sunday, Weaselface Wallace hosts occasion Democrat, Dianne Feinstein, plus Republican Pete “Hokie” Hoekstra of Michigan, and then the weasel will try and do a “tax and spend” slam on Charlie Rangel.

At the Goebbels network, George Snufalufagus sits down with Secretary of the Treasury Henry Paulson, plus Chuck Schumer and Senator Brylcreem, Trent Lott. Then it’s a roundtable, with NPR school of hackery graduate, Martha Raddatz, E.J. “Poupon” Dionne of the WaPost, and George :jerk: Will. Plus Wynton Marsalis on “making a difference” through music. Yeah, maybe if you hit Dick Cheney upside the head with your trumpet, Wynton.

Over at CNN, Wolf Blitzer’s Late Emission includes U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, Zalmay Khalilzad, Chris Dodd, Krazy Jon Kyl, Terrible Tom Tancredo, LA Times hack Ron Brownstein, Chicago Tribune hack, Jill Zuckman, and Wall Street Journal hack (even by WSJ standards), John Fund.

Later, on 60 Minutes, Morley Safer does a story on “dog nut” and Simpson’s co-creator, Scary Sam Simon, Scott Pelley reports on how Islamic extremists are using the Internet for propaganda and recruiting (just like Kristian extremists), and Steve Kroft talks to U.S. Comptroller General David Walker, who tells us how the country is going into the toilet, financially speaking (where it will be reunited with the country’s credibility).

Enjoy your Sunday.

I really have nothing against transsexuals. After all, some of my best friends are transsexuals. Well, truth be told, I don’t think I actually know any (but, to paraphrase Don Rumsfeld, if you know that you know a transsexual, then you know that you know one, but you can’t know if you know a transsexual if you don’t know that the transsexual you know is a transsexual). But when it comes to Ann Coulter, I can’t help but despise that ignorant, evil beast. “She’s” got an Adam’s Apple twice the size of mine (and darker five o’clock shadow), so I don’t know who the hell “she” thinks “she’s” kidding. I would comment further on Ann Coulter, but it turns out if you use the word “c*nt,” you have to go into rehab. So I guess I’ll just say, have a nice Saturday.

It’s Friday, ya bastids. Don’t forget, snowbirds, if you’re out there in the Aspen area, you have all kinds of chances to see Marc Maron at the Comedy Festival, through Saturday. In April, the East Coasters get a chance at him, as he’ll be appearing in NYC’s Grammercy Theater with Henry Rollins and Janeane Garofalo. Later in April, you Cincinnati folks get a shot, as Marc’ll be at Bananas in Montgomery Ohio, before the Maron, Rollins, and Garofalo tour heads to LA.

No shows in Central New York, I’m afraid, so I’ll just have to content myself with Sedition Radio, which should be moving to its new home some time today (just need to put the finishing touches on the new box I built for it). Then I can sit back and watch the snow, sleet and rain fall.
