Illinois, From the Colder Prairie Now
It’s out in the early edition–not on-line yet. Good call More tomorrow.
IFI is upset. I say, the man has good taste. Can anyone else imagine what goes on at the IFI HQ. “and the men, the men, they parade around in their short shorts showing their toned legs for everyone to see, like the public wants to see those delectable, ahem, disgusting legs on display. It’s […]
The Oberweis Comedy Jam Austin Mayor will be doing his rendition of Uberweis, Uberweis to the tune of Edelweis. OneMan will be providing aerial shots from a helicopter and telling us just how many illegal aliens can fit into the roundhouse complex. Jake and Nat have drinks while Dave Dierson screams to no one in […]
Rich points out the horrendous production problems with the Eisendrath ad quite well. But there is another quality about it that I couldn’t quite place which transcended bad production into a classic of bad campaign advertisements. It just struck me what it was, but I had to go back to January 14, 1972 when Christopher […]
Credit to the commenters at Rich’s place It’s all so clear now.
When I was around 13 I was cycling down the street, turned around to check behind me and when I turned back around found a car had pulled out in front of me. I put a large dent in the hood and used my face to nicely pattern the safety glass of the windshield. I […]
Rod’s new commercial. Very good. One of the better parts is an admission of having problems and then quickly transitioning into having a new daughter. Yeah, politicos think it’s lame, but that sort of transition hits a lot of voters as important–it’s a values thing. On the flip side, I don’t even know what to […]
Richard Cohen really is a fricken moron in advising a student to not worry about doing algebra. What is the Value of Algebra? PZ slaps him around fairly decently, but not enough. Let’s start with math is good. If teaches basic logic and analytical skills and provides a background for a wide variety of skills. […]
Cheney on Fox via the Hotline Blog “Ultimately, I’m the guy who pulled the trigger who fired the round that hit Harry… That’s the bottom the line. It was not Harry’s fault. You can’t blame anybody else. I’m the guy who pulled the trigger and shot my friend. It’s a day I’ll never forget. More: […]
The Illinois Enviroblog put together by the Illinois Environmental Council. It’ll be permalinked soon, but for now, it’s right here.
With his proposal for universal pre-k (something all states should be moving towards), Blagojevich is getting good press for a very progressive agenda over the last few years. Newman lists some of the most important issues that the Democratic Legislature and Governor have passed for those who agree with them, though I’d add Blagojevich’s Pharmacy […]
But consider this a budget address open thread.
Since I’m having some problems–first, anonymous commenters should only be using one handle in comments. The particular person currently using at least two will have their comments deleted if more than one handle is used again. Some folks use their real name and an anonymous handle–that is okay, but only one anonymous handle. Second, I’ll […]
Leo’s got a post up at several sites singing the praises of John Sullivan who is challenging Lipper the Lessoer AKA Skeletor in IL-03’s primary. More fun is Jeff Berkowitz talking to both of them this week on the Illinois Channel–even I get that down here on cable access. What someone needs to ask the […]
