I seem to be running into the absence of the vocative comma a lot, but didn't expect it here. "Guess what Arianna" makes a certain amount of sense, though. I prefer the current one to the candidate's wife and the Total Woman.

OK, you fixed it quickly. Delete my comment, if you wish.

"the only thing we to fear is fear itself" and missing words. Be anal-retentive, be very anal-retentive. Also, be snarky, be very snarky.

I have just discovered that "Hindrocket" is not a silly name John Holbo made up to mock right-wing blogs.

I was pleasantly surprised by the Sante piece on Dylan. Perhaps it's time to reconsider my grudge against him for doing one iteration of the traditional Harper's/Atlantic "Nyah, nyah, sf isn't about the real world, so it can't be literature."

I am sure that it is just coincidence that the first time I tried to look at the boing boing link, Internet Explorer informed me that I had lesnerized (or whatever it says) and it was shutting down in protest. It worked OK the second time.

I heard the Huey Long quote as "They'll call it Americanism," which I consider a better line.

Bruce: I got tired of political debate, but I have since broken a second wind.

I heard the term "seagull management" applied to George Steinbrenner years ago.

I'm tired of political debate, so I'm going to say something no intelligent person could argue with: Jo Walton is awesome.

Nancy L: I am with you in thinking that one of the great fantasy writers of our time was not speaking with serious literalness.

Ken MacLeod: The spirit of King Solomon lives!

The ATM at my North Carolina bank asked me to
ENTER YOUR SECERT CODE.

I agree completely. It's about time we had one of those on our side.

The Yahoo headline early this morning was "Rumsfeld Apologizes for Abuse, Says Worse to Come." Interesting ambiguity.

I've heard that the liberals are too expensive boot and the conservatives are too jackboot.

I really miss "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. Indian giver be the name of the Lord."
