Only Thursday? Damn, feels like it ought to be Friday, doesn’t it? And I had Monday off. I guess since we traveled about 400 years in time between Monday and noon on Tuesday, it just feels like forever. I’m proposing new Federal legislation for Obama to make his #1 priority. The Friday of any week having a Monday holiday should be a Federal holiday. And any week without a Monday holiday should be required to have that Monday as a holiday. And half days on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We promise to be productive as hell on Wednesdays, though.
Looks like Caroline Kennedy really is out of the running for the NY Senate seat, despite anything Olberman may have reported. Maybe Keith is just struggling to remain relevant in a post-Bush world. I don’t particularly want Andy Cuomo either, though. Not unless we can get Spitzer back as AG.
Nobody cares what I think, though. Especially our Governor.
PJ, I like your idea of a work week! I hope Obama reads this blog.
Spitzer did a great job as AG. Why is it that his prostitute dabbling required resignation and Vitter gets to be the GOP ethics guard? Is it that Spitzer wore boring black socks while Vitter went for those dapper diapers? I am, as always, a confused citizen.
As for our new mystery senator, he/she should be revealed soon. Cuomo does seem like the next most logical choice and I believe he is married to a Kennedy. Does that count?
Fortunately this is the end of my work week. It’s been a very long short week. I’m ready for some down time. But, I’ve got to work today.
pj- You’ve really been on your game the last two days :rofl2:
not that you’ve been off your game before :tongue:
The marriage af Kerry Kennedy, daughter of Robert, and Andrew Cuomo came to a somewhat nasty end in 2003.
Why Vitter remains in the Senate at all after crapping his huggies is beyond me. Oh, that’s right, Louisiana.
Kerry Kennedy, daughter of Robert, and Andrew Cuomo
Kerry has 2 fathers?

The one time I am consciously trying not to abuse parentheses and I get this.
Echoes of A Message from Post History: Reflections on the Inaugurations of JFK and Barack Obama
We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans–born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage–and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.
hmmm, wonder if Seanie is feeling the pinch:
Forgot to tape Marc on Conan last night. Shit! And then I have to listen to BRL and everyone IMing him about how he killed. Maybe tomorrow after work I’ll see if it’s on YouTube yet.
Hopefully Conan will still have him on when the show moves to 11:35.
Oh, I forgot he was on, too. But the shows are online.
:dancers:
There’s no one as Irish as Barack O’Bama: http://www.oneeyedparrot.org/obama.html
The link box thing went away. I think the Leprechauns are screwing around with us.
We need a Leprechaun emo

Gillebrand? Our next senator?
Minnesota’s EX senator Coleman has taken a day job.

this one has more soul and feels less kitschy…
Some Irish love Barack Obama:
re: 14 – Coleman “signed up as a paid adviser to the Republican Jewish Coalition earlier this week.” Wonder if he’ll lobby Minnesota’s New Junior Senator?
For Herr Hat Curmudgeon:
:nod:
Marc and Sam ought to have someone from Conan’s comedy staff on the show sometime. Like the Incredible Annoying Brian Stack. He’s more annoying than Jim Earl actually. :tongue: 😀
Break Room Live is the best show out there. All those MvS early screw-ups are finally paying off.
