(I stole that line from Dave Barry. He’s much funnier than I am.)
5:25 – The debate is starting. No James Simpson! This debate suddenly got less fun.
First question – tell us why you are the best person to be the next mayor.

I have seen this video all over the blogosphere this afternoon of some guy named Julio, who asked President Obama a question at his town meeting today in Ft. Myers.

Last night, I went to set up the VCR to record “24″ (I know, I live in the stone age) and caught the last few minutes of President Obama’s press conference.
Thanks to the wonders of the amazing internet workers, I was able to find a YouTube clip of the segment I saw.

According to the commercial, it was also available for the Atari 2600 and Intellivision, but we had it for the ColecoVision. I loved that game. Please note, I was in first grade at the time.
Here’s a video of how to play it.
I heart [...]

CBO, the official scorekeepers for legislation, said the House and Senate bills will help in the short term but result in so [...]
Big Hollywood, the blog, that is.
Andrew Leigh notes:

Seems to me that nothing in Ben Stein’s Expelled is more compelling evidence of the [...]

Seven Days reporter Ken Picard has an article about Burlington mayoral candidate Kurt Wright out today.
