LOST-RELATED HILARITY
Cowboyz 'n' Poodles
Chris liveblogged the most recent episode of Lost (the boring Juliet one) and is killing me with hilariousness: 10:20, New station named “The Tempest” all but confirms another of my crackpot theories, wherein the Others are the world’s most sophisticated theater company and the island is a giant inescapable mystery dinner. HAHA
OH HELL YEAS

I thought this was kinna absurd, but hey, whatever works! Proud that my birth state, despite its mostly erroneous reputation as a shitkicking / homophobic cowpoke refuge, went with the better candidate. Interesting frontpage story in Wyoming Tribune-Eagle about a Clinton visit, which focuses more on her as a representation candidate than the best candidate. […]

I did ask Sandman if he ever googled himself. 2. The Roots filmed their new video […]

I am live-blogging Brokeback Mountain which I am now watching for the first time. IN particular, as a Wyoming native, I will be addressing issues of accuracy. Six minutes in, I would like to say: the shots of the sky and flat plains are wildly accurate – I honestly didn’t know you could capture the […]
WOWOWOW: FEMINISTS FOR OBAMA PART II
Cowboyz 'n' Poodles
Rebecca Walker, thank you for going in on the “feminist infighting” that has arisen in the Hillary vs. Barack debate (via Jack & Jill politics). I’m convinced the Democratic primaries are, perhaps inadvertantly, a defining moment in the future of feminism. I’m on a feminist listserv comprised mostly of prominent middle-aged white academics and media […]
