For the city of New York, baseball is no longer a thing that’s going on, according to a nonexistent informal survey I’ve just made up, but am pretty sure of. If we are lucky enough to see a Giants vs Rangers world series, then, we are all Giants.

Time to pull the plug on Grandma Moe Tucker.
In an interview, the drummer from a band* I hear used to be relevant groused about Obama in the way only the deluded and FOX News Loving Kind Do:
I am also against the government taking over the student loan program, car companies, bailouts and the White House taking control of the census (what the hell is that all about?); [about] any First Lady telling (I know, I know, “suggesting...

Google's "Evil" Problem - My new post over at... →
