In this time of Republican trolls, conservative asshats, neverending wars, and underpants bombers, I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you to all you wonderful, wonderful readers who keep sticking around for one reason or another.
I wish you all the best tonight and for the new year.
Cheers!

Tiga: Shoes
I'm hip. I'm cool. So I listen to some sweet indie music, sometimes Canadian, so when that sweet song shows up on the new iPod commercial I can say "Oh yeah, I've been listening to them for months."
No, I'm not really a dick like that. Only sometimes. Maybe. Really, I just enjoy new, different, not overplayed music.
So I was eating up some delicious CBC Radio 3 and in the last few weeks this song "Shoes" by Tiga keeps popping in and it drives me goddamned batty! In a bad way. Annoying as hell.
So in the ever-engaging endeavor of lessening pain by spreading it out, I had to pull up the video and share with you my misery.
Only there's this one problem: When I clicked play, when I was fully expecting to wallow in the pain that is "Shoes," I found myself enthralled. And somehow now I love the song. Really. I've watched the video 3 times and it's delicious. I'm not joking.
See for yourself:
(I told you it was all fucking videos today.)

Michele Bachmann: Welfare Socialist!
A story was released today saying that Congresswoman Michele Bachmann has received hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal subsidies for her family farm. These farmer subsidies come from our community tax dollars, leading us to ask the question, is Michele Bachmann a secret socialist?
Here's the link. I can't listen because I'm not ready to download Silverlight to my computer. Damn you Microsoft!
But I'm not going to leave you in the lurch. Here's the vid from Young Turks:
Over a quarter of a million dollars in gov't subsidies.
Sur-prise, sur-prise!
Let's get her to run with Palin.

Backatcha!
Well, I'm back from the outer space that is the holiday season. I trust you all had a great holiday?
Relatively uneventful on my end - just some good times with friends and family and usually a few drinks to close out the night.
Most interesting part of the holiday was that Mrs. Shambles's grandmother is in a nursing home right now. And when we visited her, the woman she's sharing a room with, separated by a curtain, kept asking us (apparently Nancy and Bob) how the food was in Jamaica and how big the plane was and why we kept talking about Cincinnati when she knew that we lived in North Olmstead before we went to Jamaica, of course.
When we said we lived in North Carolina before that, she got totally confused.
Oh, and that one of my relatives may soon begin smoking weed due to a medical condition.
And it was snowing and I'd had little sleep and a sugar free Red Bull, but driving back home I either saw the body of a giant sheepdog or a small Yeti.
So I guess it was a little interesting.
I wish you all the best in the coming week and year!

Why is Max Baucus Drunk?
Seriously. Drunk.
Of course, if I had to deal with the Republican asshats in the Senate I'd probably drink pretty heavily too. But not when I was going to be on teevee. Even if you don't consider CSPAN teevee.
