I like the Boston Globe as much as the next guy, but I don't want to e-mail them, thanks.

Also, your link to the Bin Laden bit is actually a link to a story about the new Kenyan prex.

Did you miss your coffee this morning, Mr. Intern?

Um, yeah, Sachi, I got that...that URL appeared as the address to an e-mail so I cut and pasted it into my browser -- did yours go to e-mail when you clicked the link? Maybe it's my computer.

That's weird. I had such an egregious spelling error yesterday that I tried to make sure I didn't fuck anything up today; all the links worked last night around 2 a.m.

Fixed now, though.

Well, I probably sounded like a crabby hag when I posted above -- thanks for delivering the news while most Stranger readers are either sleeping or grinding down their teeth on the last of their meth.

Nothing from Iowa?
E.g.,
--Edwards takes the lead in poll, is benefitting from large independent expenditure from SEIU

--Obama charges this is coordinated and improper.

--Hillary changes from sipping tea, to hot chocolate. Clear flip floppery. Bill claims this maleability is sign of strength and exp. just as while he was president blah blah blah.

The Pats did it, and they broke that record when they went 14 and o and theyre the greatest team in NFL history and I hate them for it.

The Dolphins' went undefeated because they had a weak ass schedule and only played 14 games. The 72 Dolphins are the most overrated team of all time.

And yes I hate the Pats, I hated them when I was a wee lad and they had a qb named steve grogan who was stiffer than.. ahh never mind, I hate the Pats.

Looks like the Hawks are going to play that team from DC with the racist name. Go Hawks!

If Matt Hasslebeck had a quarter of the toughness of Steve Grogan the Hawks might actually have a chance to go beyond the first round of the playoffs.
