I’m going to binge drink pop and water on Saturday.

It’s a recession, y’all.

Kevin, it’s impromptu because I usually send out the invite a month in advance due to my birthday being so close to Christmas.

Thanks for the open invite, Alie. I won’t be able to make it, but I hope it’s a merry celebration whether you have one drink or ten.

Satin Madman here.

How impromptu is it if you have it planned a day in advance?

The date on the title is wrong. It should be 12.12.08.

First Betty Page, now Van Johnson!

Going to have to watch my DVD of "30 Seconds Over Tokyo" tonight.

RIP, Van.

Speaking of MinnPost (way up the thread, at 7:15 this morning), did anybody notice that they got mentioned – but not linked – on Seth Godin’s blog? Perhaps nobody cares, but Seth’s blog is consistently in the top 15 most popular blogs on planet earth.

Headline: Wrongfully rejected absentee ballots could near 1,600.

Epic FAIL. It looks now after the recount that our voting machines, for the most part, work very well.

It is clear to me that we have a real problem with our absentee voting, and how these ballots are treated once they arrive.

Let's fix this, Minnesota. Time to stand up and do the right thing. Who wins the Senate seat is secondary -- the main thing is fix this, before the next election.
