- The argument outran the facts. I had a big long post here about how angry I am about this whole thing. I couldn't bring myself to post it. You know, I have a couple of subtle but important distinctions in my head. One is the separation of our Government with the current Administration. |

- Comedian Tom Mabe has picked excellent timing to release his latest album, A Wake Up Call for Telemarketers, since there's so much focus these days on telemarketing. The album is based on phone calls made when he stayed at the same hotel as a bunch of telemarketers during a telemarketing conference, and then called them in the middle of the night to talk to them about the Telemarketers With Insomnia Foundation. Of course, now that the national Do Not Call List has come out, there may not be as much interest in his brand of humor (he also put out two other comic CDs where he gets "revenge" on telemarketers who call him). However, he's not afraid. He says he's now going to take on spammers. |

- Although I didn't vote for Davis in the last election, I will be voting "no" on the recall this October. He may not be the most charismatic guy in the world, but we Californians elected him. In case the recall succeeds (which it looks like it probably will), I will be one again voting for the Green party candidate. Camejo is pro-choice, pro-gun control, against the death penalty, and pro-workers' rights. The rest of the world may be having a jolly good time with the Arnold vs. |

- I know this will come as no surprise to anyone:A new Congressional report has found that the government's much ridiculed color-coded terrorist alert system is so vague in detailing threats that the public "may begin to question the authenticity" of the threats and take no action when the alert level is raised.Have you seen that commercial for coffee during which a boss says, "About my color coded chart -- there's color, but there's no code"? Everytime it runs, I think of Homeland Security. Good old Pennsylvania ingenuity, courtesy of Swamp Thing lookalike Tom Ridge. |

- LGF compiles photos froim a Hong Kong clothing store that thought swastikas and iron crosses would make festive decorations. It's always been interesting to me that ironic deployments of Nazi iconography are always (appropriately enough) condemened as being in grotesquely poor taste, while it's generally acceptable to use the imagery of the even more murderous Soviet Union in similar ways. I used to grab an occasional drink at Manhattan's KGB Bar when I lived there, though I wouldn't be caught dead sipping a G&T in the "Gestapo Bar." In the abstract, I recognize that the former should be no more or less offensive than the latter, but I've absorbed our culture's visceral horror at one set of imagery, but not the other. Incidentally, I recently caught a powerful lecture by Alan Charles Kors (RealAudio) on that very topic. |
