is it here? is it really here?
an interesting curiosity for sure, like the shimano stuff, but i'm not
sure what the point is. well, that's not true. i know what the point
is. gee wiz gadgets that cost very little to produce in (relative)
quantity but command an excessive retail price are what america is made
for. it's probably a cool thing, but as far from my bag o' tea as
no-name chinese carbone garbage with a fancy paintjob. i look forward
to the parking lot crit on the campagnolo electric components just as
much as i did the the shimano. after that, i'm good for a while.

for once in his life
skeezy newt gingrich
has a high standard to meet: he must deliver as much delirious hilarity
as bachmann, perry and cain have so far this year. what that means is
that the otherwise useless establishment media must mercilessly bait
gingrich with his hypocrisy, his vanity, his utter vapidity and his
serial adultery and sodomy. if they do this with the proper vigor,
gingrich will lose his mind and could become the most entertaining
republican candidate this cycle.
michael moore is not the only good-guy type leftish media denizen to flourish in the glow of the occupy movement. matt taibbi
is another commentator who is doing great work on the subject. what
i've seen with both taibbi and moore, along with a few others,
especially keith olbermann on tee vee, is that they are not strictly
reporting or condescendingly hectoring but are instead both analyzing
the movement and learning from it, broadening their perspective on
politics and culture while they work. this is a good thing--a great
thing really--and cannot be dismissed; it is an important development
for not only the occupy movement but the american left as a whole.
this clown is plainly a pathetic closeted chorus-boy, and it's more obvious every day.
sooooo much better than dr. who or torchwood. it was
better in the first couple of series with that unintelligible scottish
guy and that other guy and that woman and the younger woman, but the two
kids have stepped up well, and they've all done well consider the
perilous production history. makes just as little sense as terra nova but has about a billion times more style and more life and imagination in it than a thousand episodes of falling skies.
