It's just amazing, isn't it?

We had a couple very similar to that in our school 13 years ago. Broke up two families, lied to everyone that they were having an affair, then when husband left, boyfriend moved in the next day. (At the same time as he was applying for principal of a Catholic high school). Even before they were married, he was telling people how big the tits were on the secretary at his new school. They're still married as far as I l know, mostly I think because she wouldn't dare admit that she'd made that monumental a mistake.

I don't call myself a reader of said "book". I call myself a thrower-against-the-wall.

I like Kristen Schaal's reasoning against them: "Penises look like a species discovered living on the ocean floor near underseas sulphur jets."

Yeah, I am totally not a fan of that movie, and even I know that.

I was really hoping that that was wife and husband #1 standing in the background.

If only the Vatican would let Father Guido Sarducci take the Nate Silver spot.

Yeah, fuck that stupid-ass high-quality investigative reporting and in-depth coverage anyway. Who needs all those expensive bureaus around the world?

Well, Ross Douche-hat is, anyway. Not sure about the others.

I've been waiting for <i>weeks</i> for the Dowd/Noonan Thunderdome Invitational. WTF, man? What's holding it up? Someone must be on the rag or something.

I only read the Sunday NYT because my own local fishwrap is so excruciating. For starters, it reprints Dowd AND Douthat columns.

Two pages of funnies would save this newspaper forever. Hearst knew why people read the paper, and it's not for Maureen Dowd.

The mag, the book review and uh. . . the Sunday Review, I guess. For this I pay $6 a week?

<i>“No one sits Baby in a corner, one of the best lines in movie history,”</i>

Is today opposite day?

Ironically, Dowd's efforts to prove writing coherent paragraphs is unnecessary is having the opposite effect.

Interesting how Bruni circumscribes the Weiner question..
