Most of the time I embrace my assholery. On rare occasion, not so much…and sometimes I even feel kinda bad.
What I want to know is, who the fuck is drugging me on those rare occasions?!?

If you reallyreallyreally have to eat turkey for Thanksgiving (or any other day), please consider getting a free-range turkey. You can get them from many markets, though they often have to be pre-ordered…today will probably still be early enough to get one.

Chris Martin on Stern this week - great interview, and I wish so much that I could afford to subscribe to HowardTV. Martin has one of the most melodious and sweet voices I’ve ever heard, and I LOVE it.
Oh yeah, and he has a great, dry sense of humor, too.

Maybe it's just me...
(and in cases like this I don’t really care much if anyone else agrees or not), but I love it when Ryking goes about “slinging puerile insults” in the direction of right-wing trolls and hypocrites. It’s one of the best things about the entirety of social media. :)

‘Good and evil doesn’t have a grey zone. Killing and stealing is bad. Violence is never “good” or necessary unless it is used to defend against killers and thieves. Indeed, that is the morality behind the “just war” principle as defined by international laws and treaties.

Bachmann's Migraines
I’m watching Keith and just have to say - migraines are not on a par with Cheney’s heart condition(s). Migraines are neurological, which is a very different monster.
Depending on what kind(s) you have, you can either just have headaches and nausea, or you can become effectively blind temporarily, or you can find yourself having to curl up in a dark, quiet room for days or weeks, OR...
