Back. With Presidential Endorsement.


Well I haven't posted here in quite awhile have I? The itch to bitch has returned. After a summer simultaneously replete with cool life and cruel death, some thoughts are brewing, and again it seems this might be the logical place to drop them. I've got a new rock group thats a lot of fun, Fresh Air Kids. We've played a handful of shows and are about to record an album.

We'll also have a new president in ten days, and I think the (relatively) good guys might win this time. A thank you must be extended to the GOP, for giving Halloween enthusiasts a clear choice for the default female (and possibly male, at least here in NYC) costume of 2008. Sarah Palin, you are this year's Amy Winehouse. And what perfect timing. As the streets are filled with actual Palins, Tina Fey as Palins (its still a sexy holiday), and perhaps several pun-derived entities (Eddie Van Palin, the Palintologist, Palin Alda), we will witness the zenith of this dangerous politician's presence in the collective blue state consciousness, only to see her ejected back into a snowy, Dan Quayle-like exile four days later. God willing.
