Crushes: Rose McGowan in Glasses

From The Bastardly - Rose McGowan in Glasses. ZOMG - she needs to do a movie wearing these. If she wore these on Charmed, the show would still be on.
There's nothing about this picture that I don't love, love, love. There's a dozen of these shots at the link.

I Drove All Night
I've believed that this song was a Roy Orbison song that Cyndi
Lauper covered, awesomely. I was surprised to read that Cyndi was
the first to release "I Drove All Night"! Orbison never released
his version until 1992!

Righteous
From
PowerPop.I can't help but feeling that Obama is thinking, "My daughter
got to meet Bruce Springsteen tonight! How cool is that!" A dad can
be no more righteous.
Added 11/05/2008: Except, of course, when
he gets his girls a puppy because he just won the White
House.

An Apology
My Apologies to all of those who asked me to vet documents for them
and asked me, "Is This Racist"?
That answer was consistently "Yeah, probably", but I was not able to answer directly, due to lack of time and will and energy.

The Future is Now
Just got a call from my co-worker.
"I just voted! I just voted!" She was so proud.
She, her 80-year old mother, and her 18-year old daughter went to the polls together this morning.
Three generations of black women, voting together.
May God Almighty save and protect any fool that chooses to stand agains…

Running out of Places To Park
Atrios discusses Car Sharing...
Maybe some other Houstonians can check me on this, but I'm getting the distinct impression that even here, we've run out of places to park. Any place worth getting to, you can't park there any more.
I believe that there would be major benefits in offering substantial tax/…

Losing His Religion
It occurs to me that McCain is making the same mistake that Al Gore
made back in 2000.
Because of the impeachment and Lewinski issues, Gore decided to keep Clinton at arm's length, depriving himself of a major fundraiser and an effective advocate. He still won, of course, but maybe the extra…

Crushes: Milla Jovovich
So, Friday night, TNT ran one of their periodic
Superhero/Fantasy/Action bloc of movies. At least, I'm sure that's
how they think of it.

Projector
McCain's been going on about a planetarium projector all
this time?
No shit?
Gramps, by any standards, a Senator who gets the Feds to buy a fucking planetarium projector for his people, is a fucking saint. What a mean fucking old man you are.
God, I'm embarassed just having to say that.
