Prepare to laugh yourself silly. The best thing on the internet, Ze Frank's The Show visited Minneapolis today.

"Every time I go to Target I'm reminded of how much more I have to buy to complete my collection of everything in the world."
I'll go to Target for one or two inexpensive things and end up spending like 80 bucks on all kinds of stuff that I "need."
The follow-up episode from Minneapolis was even better.

An interesting discussion broke on on Twitter today when it came out that Baja Sol's CEO is also the chair of the Republican Party in Minneapolis, prompting some to decide not to eat there (summary and links to the conversation courtesy of Heavy Tabl…
From the Health Insurance Resouce Center: Interviewed on Minnesota Public Radio, Kline says as far as he's concerned, a health reform bill with a public option is a no-go. His reasoning is that it would be ... too successful. (Via)…
At 8:30 AM on a Thursday in early July, I am unable to think of what books were recommended at the last MnRead meeting and in the last MnRead post for future MnRead discussion. So make your recommendations here. Books with local angles (Fitzgerald co…
The PiPress reports: At least, there's one good thing about a bad economy: Burgers are hot right now. Especially the cheap ones. In the past year in the Twin Cities, a mini burger boom has been under way. What new burger joints have you enjoyed? Wha…
