How Does Drinking Evian Make You Feel?

There's no Evian money headed in my direction because this video appears on my blog. It's here only because it's great!

Back to Work

Vacation is over and we're back to "work". I for one was pretty enthusiastic about getting back. I was only five minutes late this morning!

So far no heavy lifting like these guys. But I happen to know that the rock you see them carrying in this particular photograph which was taken about ten minutes prior to quitting time was their 106th rock of the day. Is that weird or what?

A Safe and Happy 4th of July

Getting Ready to Run

MSNBC says she's bailing altogether, getting out of politics for good. Sarah Palin announced today that she's resigning as governor of Alaska effective the end of July.

I say she's just clearing her schedule. She's not going to announce that she's running for President. She's going to make a half dozen speeches a month around the country at 40 grand a pop for the next year or two. She'll network, she'll do plenty of GOP and conservative howdy-do's, she'll connect with people she needs connections with, and she'll not ever have fewer than one toe in the water at all times.

"Quitting is political suicide!"

Opinion. Never say never in politics.

These pictures are from a recent interview she did with Runner's World Magazine. Sure looks like she's getting ready to run to me.

Love This Commercial

You've seen the Castrol "Think with your dipstick Jimmy!" spot. Here's a "behind the scenes" look.

Finally

Questions from the press about how the Obama administration conducts it's so-called "town hall/public" meetings? Asking an actual job-of-the-press kind of question...from CBS?

And way to go Helen Thomas!!!

Gibbs, not too hot when someone asks him a question that doesn't fall along the lines of "So how great is President Obama today?"

At Least We're Not in Minnesota

The Minnesota Supreme Court today decided that Al Franken is the winner of a highly contested battle for the Senate seat in that state.

It's been eight months since the election and in the end the margin of victory, tied to a question of whether some absentee votes were or were not legal, was slim. Still Franken evidently received the majority of votes.

Do you think we should continue letting people in Minnesota vote for stuff?

He Knew

The daughter of "The King" was once married to "The King of Pop."

Lisa Marie Presley's Myspace blog about the death of her ex-husband, Michael Jackson is titled "He Knew."
