    Well, it just does, and I’m tired of talking about it. Go play outside or something.

    You’re going to put your eye out with that–or somebody else’s.

    The way your dad looked at it, this watch was your birthright. He’d be damned if any slopes gonna put their greasy yellow hands on his boy’s birthright, so he hid it, in the one place he knew he could hide something: his ass. Five long years, he wore this watch up his ass. Then when he died of dysentery, he gave me the watch. I hid this uncomfortable piece of metal up my ass for two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the watch to you.

    she’s a witch?

    If you had a story, with videotape, of a pastor from Kenya, who got his start in witch-hunting, laying his hands on a candidate, and the candidate’s last name was, just to pick one at random, ‘Obama,’ what would be happening right now?

    That does it. I’m signing up for witch school.

    train wreck — try to look away.

    “I think the McCain campaign knew the Couric interview would be a disaster as soon as it was done taping and spent much of the day frantically trying to think of a way to push it out of the headlines,” A.L. explained. “The clincher for me is the fact that McCain cancelled his Letterman appearance at the last second and instead sat down for an impromptu interview with, of all people, Katie Couric. The hope was to bump the Palin interview even on the CBS Evening News, which otherwise would have hyped and teased the Palin interview all afternoon and used it to lead the broadcast. Instead, CBS devoted most of its coverage to McCain and played segments of the Palin interview almost as an afterthought. Mission accomplished.”

    Well, you pull both ends of the lace as tight as you can without hurting your foot, then you cross this end over that end and then loop this end under and then– Here, let me do it.

    McCain suspends his campaign:

    In Ashland County, Ohio, a McCain worker named Ken confirmed, “We’re still campaigning for him.” He added, “I’m taking off in two hours. A Japanese couple will be watching the shop after, but they’re very anglocized.”

    McCain’s choppering in to Washington so he can walk the bill over to his bud, waving and accepting congratulations for all the hard work–while he’s not campaigning. And Palin, all the while is doing the work of a greeter at the local Wal-Mart, getting “experience.” It’s tough learning how to stay on top of keeping your legs crossed. I keep thinking–who can’t meet people? Big daily briefing point today: don’t shake hands with two fingers.
