"Remember the good ol' days, when it was only white guys on the job, and you could tell any kind of joke about minorities, women or gays and not have to worry about 'offending' someone? Well, except when we would tell Polish jokes and Warshawski would get mad at us, but hey we didn't mean nothin' by it!"

But that's not The Conservative Way(tm)!

The Conservative Way(tm) means that they keep talking about subjects they know nothing about and never let anyone else get a word in edgewise. Because if they do stop talking, some "socialist" or "free thinker" or "college professor" might say something that the kids might hear and start to question what they're told. Hey, Ronald Reagan didn't get to where he is today by asking questions!

I think we should all chip in and buy Meghan's stylist a muffin basket or an Edible Arrangement. Just to let her know we're watching, and we appreciate her.

I sometimes purchase cardboard products and haven't found a good substitute for Uline, despited having known and hated the Uihleins forever. It would be nice to hear about a less evil company selling similar stuff..

I think LeVar Burton is about the most excellent choice for a Jeopardy host anyone could make.

All those kids that grew up with Reading Rainbow are now of Jeopardy-watching age and are probably so smart now, the Jeopardy writers will have to come up with the most diabolical answers ever.

But since I was too old for Reading Rainbow when it was broadcast, I will only watch him as a Jeopardy host if he wears his Geordie glasses from Star Trek: TNG. I will accept nothing else.
