* "homophobia is the new NASCAR" LINK

* everyone is referring to the Hughes, Bolton and Wolfowitz triumv-irate. can we *please* remember to include rove's own promotion? and while we're at it, lets flashback to when cheney was tasked to find the best possible veep in the country.

* smart people are thinking about moving to iceland. LINK
there was an article about me in the main paper there once. i couldnt read it. the photo was flattering, hopefully the article was too.

* the LAT does a piece on garywebb (for a bit of fun they put it in the 'lifestyle' section) "Gary Webb planned his death with polite precision... When he pulled the trigger, the bullet sliced down through his face, exiting at his left cheek, a non-fatal wound. He pulled the trigger again. The second shot, coroner's investigators believe, nicked an artery." LINK
in a nice piece of silo journalism, they didnt mention the recent LAT article about the ukranian murders/suicides where they scoffed at the idea that someone could shoot themselves twice.

* thecommonills plugs me again (nope, im not paying them) " let's finally note our friend Luke of wotisitgood4 from Thursday where he raised an interesting question (Luke's always catching things but this is the post I meant to do a heads up on but forgot to)" and "always try to make time for wotisitgood4 because Luke's catching a great deal that no one else -- myself included -- is."
they point to my stuff on the weird haririkiri silence from the egadmin. thnx CI

* ron and commonills are both covering election hearings in ohio with blackwell that seem to have been invisible for some reason. im not sure if these are the hearing where blackwell wanted to call the 2 jons? apparently blackwell "Says Election Went Smoothly" LINK "It's silly on its face to think there was some kind of bipartisan conspiracy" Blackwell said." apparently hitchens doesnt agree.
