is it november 5th yet?
16 Oct 2008There shouldn’t be any doubt that I’m planning on voting for Obama/Biden in November. Not only would I never talk to myself again if I voted for a McCain/Dumbass ticket, but my grandpa would probably disown me. Most of the people in my department at work are of the same belief, except for our Admin. [...]
i attempt to discuss local news
1 Sep 2008It’s a safe bet that most Twin Cities bloggers will mention something like this at some point, so you can probably just consider this joining in the crowd.
The RNC is taking place in St. Paul right now. Minneapolis/St. Paul as a whole, as far as I know and want to believe, is a pretty liberal [...]
always jump at the end
10 Mar 2008Someone jumped off our favorite cruise ship!
According to a news release from the Coast Guard, the woman had been traveling with her boyfriend on the Costa Mediterranea when "she had become angry and agitated and then unexpectedly jumped overboard."
Knowing what I know about the Costa Mediterranea and being obsessed with each and everyone one of [...]

19 Dec 2007The White House is on fire. Britney Spears’ 12 year old sister is pregnant. A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila has ended. What is the world coming to?

kids these days
2 Oct 2007When I was in middle school, nobody ever offered me any drugs and it wasn’t until high school that I was offered any kind of booze. We always heard stories of the rub-on stickers that were laced with acid on the back, and how we shouldn’t take any stickers from strangers, because they could be [...]

30 Aug 2007Iowa would not have been next on my mental list of states that would be okay with this!
DES MOINES, Iowa – A Polk County judge on Thursday struck down Iowa’s law banning gay marriage and ordered the county recorder to permit gay and lesbian couples to marry (via)
My favorite response to people against allowing gays [...]
they tried to make me go to rehab
10 Aug 2007For a few months, I’ve had “Rehab” by Amy Winehouse as my cell phone ring tone. It’s distracting, yes, but not overly so. Not as much as my current ring, which happens to be “Crazy Bitch” by Buckcherry. In any case, now that Amy Winehouse is in rehab, the song kind of loses it’s meaning. [...]
major collapsed bridge
1 Aug 2007A major bridge just collapsed in Minneapolis. Some of it fell into the Mississippi River and some fell onto the road below. I don’t really know what’s going on as far injuries and fatalities go, but the broadcast I’m watching on it keeps mentioning “red cards”, which obviously isn’t a good thing. It’s not pretty.
And [...]

8 Aug 2006If there was ever a time when I wanted to give Lindsay Lohan a knuckle sandwich, it’d be right about now. She wants to go to Iraq to entertain the troops.
Even without Sen. Clinton, Lohan is confident she can handle an Iraq trip on her own. “I’m not afraid of going,” she says. “My security [...]
