– War Room — Salon.com (via think4yourself | soupsoup) I was under the weather yesterday so I missed the event, but fortunately the whole thing is on C-SPAN’s YouTube channel. I wish presidents did more televised events like this, but this one was so brutal I doubt it’ll happen again any time soon....
I’m finally watching this incredible Q & A between House Republicans and President Obama. I think it’s a great move on the part of the Obama administration. Just as everyone who’s seen it agrees, he’s straight up schooling the Republicans.
I only wish it would make a different with the general public. Not only was it dumped into the news cycle on a Friday, but the...

Our current problems are not the product of the recovery program that’s only just now getting under way, as some would have you believe; they are the inheritance of decades of tax and tax, and spend and spend.

Today’s agenda: Pixar marathon! I’m watching all of them except for “A Bug’s Life” and “Toy Story 2.”
My plan was to go in order, but I had to watch “Up” first. Now it’s on to “Toy Story.”

'Oral sex' definition prompts dictionary ban in US... →
Dictionaries have been removed from classrooms in southern California schools after a parent complained about a child reading the definition for “oral sex”.
Merriam Webster’s 10th edition, which has been used for the past few years in fourth and fifth grade classrooms (for children aged nine to 10) in Menifee Union school district, has been pulled from shelves over fears that...

"Nes-po-tism."
That is the word that my local news anchor just used in place of “nepotism.”
And NBC blames the drop in local news ratings on Conan’s Tonight Show?
For the record, I'm not a beard hater.
My husband happens to have very attractive facial hair. But, you know, he practices good hygiene to avoid looking like a goat.
Confession: I sort of hate Dave Matthews & Neil...
But together, they were oddly comforting and amazing. How is that possible?

Too rah loo rah too rah loo rah ay.
I’m humming the chorus to “Come on, Eileen” in my head to avoid freaking out about the fact that they’re interviewing my possible replacement today. Which means this whole quitting my job in the middle of the worst recession since the Great Depression is really happening.
I don’t regret the decision. I’m excited to move back to Indiana, and even more excited to...
