Actually, no. All quiet in the small states.

Our choices, folks. Can't catch: Vs. Can't ride something designed for cripples and geezers.

Harry Shearer (Spinal Tap, voice of MJ Burns, Flanders, etc.) has done an art installation of raw feeds.

(yes, it's Karl Rove) No cheating and looking at Salon.com's caption contest winners.

It's a footnote.

so dumb he couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were on the heel

I periodically get caught in rainstorms. That seems to do the trick.

Busier than a cat covering crap on a marble floor Busier than a one-legged man at an ass-kicking contest Worthless as tits on a boar

No worries. The quality of journalism has gone so far downhill over the last twenty+ years to the point that all most news is parroting of whatever the Administration said (for example) - it was great to see someone totally call them on the carpet, who is a popular figure, and not just some dry academic or pundit. "I'm not going to be your monkey."

John Stewart hands the Crossfire guys their asses: download link: http://mediamatters.org/static/video/crossfire-20041015.wmv excerpts: STEWART: You know, the interesting thing I have is, you have a responsibility to the public discourse, and you fail miserably. CARLSON: You need to get a job at a journalism school, I think. STEWART: You need to go to one. The thing that I want to say is, when you have people on for just knee-jerk, reactionary talk... CARLSON: Wait. I thought you were going to be funny. Come on. Be funny. STEWART: No. No. I'm not going to be your monkey. (LAUGHTER) BEGALA: Go ahead. Go ahead. STEWART: I watch your show every day. And it kills me. CARLSON: I can tell you love it. STEWART: It's so -- oh, it's so painful to watch. (LAUGHTER) STEWART: You know, because we need what you do. This is such a great opportunity you have here to actually get politicians off of their marketing and strategy. CARLSON: Is this really Jon Stewart? What is this, anyway? STEWART: Yes, it's someone who watches your show and cannot take it anymore. (LAUGHTER) STEWART: I just can't. and then the best: CARLSON: I do think you're more fun on your show. Just my opinion. STEWART: You know what's interesting, though? You're as big a dick on your show as you are on any show

An inadvertant pun from my vantage-point.

I think at least one of the news crews has an IR camera up there. According to the Volcanocam , the glow could be seen reflecting off steam clouds overnight.

So, got the new Rock $ Ice 'Ethics' issue in the mail yesterday. Been perusing it, but haven't had time to digest it cover-to-cover yet. Read John Long's essay, and Dappen's article on Infinite Bliss. Looks like Dishman made another article - who knew that Washington was such a hotbed of ethics indiscretions? Anyway, off to read more. Post up and discuss after ya'll have had a chance to rifle through the pages.

Vote for Abstinence. No Dick or Bush in 2004.
