Maddow was one of the few positive things that
resulted from the Bush administration.
Oh, wait! I forgot about George Bush choking on a pretzel. So, thanks for that
unforgettable slice of found comedy, you miserable little Neocon puppet.
I've been following Rachel Maddow's media career since wayyyy back in her Air
America days. I found her radio show to have the perfect mix of information and
impish humor. Each evening I'd break out my rowing machine and pump away for
an hour as she whispered sweet words of Republican atrocities into my ears.
You can imagine my delight when she started showing up on cable news roundtables,
exercising her massive brain muscles, occasionally filling in for Keith Olbermann
when he was otherwise engaged fighting the oligarchs. When she finally got her
own MSNBC gig I was kind of heartbroken because that meant the end of our radio
dalliance, but my misery was short-lived as her TV program began being ported
to iTunes each and every evening.
My informational trifecta used to be Olbermann, Maddow and Randi
Rhodes in the afternoon but now it's just me and the goils as I've yet to
develop a taste for Lawrence O'Donnell's delivery. Hopefully Keith's new TV program
arrives sooner rather than later as I could use a good "Worst Person in
the World" just about now. His FOK
News Channel, though a welcome daily destination, offers some of his classic
shtick and analysis but it's just an appetizer for the feast to come.

My iPod, see below, is overflowing
with the origin of love. It's from
a film called "Hedwig and
the Angry Inch" and if you haven't seen this
curiously delightful gender-bender, then please
do. Great
story, fabulous music. Plus a plot device cribbed
directly from Aristotle's Plato Symposium on the
origin of love. What more could you want?
Basically, if you like the youtube video, you'll
like the movie.

Hey,
guess what?
Fox News still opens its immense gob and barfs
up lie after lie.
If you don't watch it please request that your local
cable provider remove them from your monthly
bill by calling them about it at three in the
morning.
