I don’t feel very good about the Avs’ chances tonight. I think the Wild will break a bunch of trends, such as they’ll get the first goal this time, and Marian Gaborik gets at least one point. Final score: Wild 4, Avs 1. This is written about three hours before game time. The Avs didn’t list any injuries for tonight’s game, but something tells me there might be one. Joel Quenneville said there would be a “comparable” lineup to Game 4, which was a bit more vague than we all anticipated. Forsber
It's All About Me (MSM), Isn't It, Charlie Gibson?

Voters care about the economy, Iraq, trustworthiness. But enough about us. MSM cares about Democrats muddying one another. Ratings. Ad revenue (including lots from never-ending campaigns).

OK. The Home Made Stupid Squad (a moniker aptly used by my friend Jesse) strikes again! I seem to have struck a chord with this post, in more ways than one: not only did I get quite a few encouraging comments, but someone or a few someones at Procter & Gamble suddenly started reading this blog! Welcome! So, again today I tuned into Newsworld for my fix of news, and lo and behold, there was Madame Woodburn once more, this time tut-tutting in her posh accent about how having a "beautiful fra
Francis Ford Coppola now calling Buenos Aires home (The Post and Courier)
