With Palin revelations, McCain's gamble is clearer - Los Angeles Times

Wednesday at 1:09 am - via Bookmarklet - Link

"McCain's wife, Cindy, told an interviewer over the weekend that Alaska's proximity to Russia bolstered Palin's credentials, and Palin has pointed to her leadership of the Alaska National Guard and her Army son's imminent service in Iraq as evidence of expertise." - Mike Yang via Bookmarklet

The woman introduced to America as a reform-minded Washington outsider who opposed the infamous "bridge to nowhere" -- the symbol of McCain's hatred of wasteful spending -- originally supported its construction. The governor who in her introductory speech decried the practice of budgetary "earmarks" sought, as the state's chief executive and as mayor of Wasilla, hundreds of millions of dollars in such federal funding for local projects. - Mike Yang

Palin: average isn't good enough - Los Angeles Times

"The actuarial tables on the Social Security Administration website suggest that there is a better than 10% chance that McCain will die during his first term in office . . .Should President McCain survive his first term and get elected to a second, there is a 27% chance that Palin will become the first female U.S. president by 2015." - Mike Yang via Bookmarklet

Uh oh. Tom, if I get this camera, we won't be able to share our lenses and have redundancy. That's one of our special events! Actually, it's *two* of our 10 events! - Ana

(although the only difference between this camera and the canon link i sent you is that the nikon can capture video. all the other specs seem to be the same.) - eviltom

"In one of the e-mail messages, which appeared to be sent from a “Samhoyt@hotmail.com” address, the writer expresses hope of intimacy with the woman. The writer said he wished he could “be painting your toenails right now,” “be modeling my cool penguin boxers” and “find you a permanent parking space.”" Rule #1 of public service: DO NOT HAVE SEX WITH THE INTERNS!

"Foreign-born, low-wage workers in the poll said that the economic security they left homes and families to seek in the United States is becoming harder to attain. But their faith in that dream is still strong, as they tend to be more optimistic about the future and more satisfied with their jobs and wages than native-born workers." - Mike Yang via Bookmarklet

Bike Snob NYC: The Indignity of Commuting by Bicycle: Sounds, Sasquatch, Stupidity, and Specters

August 15 at 7:06 pm - via Bookmarklet - Link

"Some people are actually so stupid that they think horns make things happen. They actually believe their car comes with a magic button in the middle of the steering wheel that can change reality. Suddenly, I became aware of the constant chorus of beeping all around me--the kind that's always present in a big city, and the kind you simply tune out like you do crickets in the country. In every case, I realized the drivers stuck in traffic all around me were using their horns not to communicate information but simply in a vain attempt to change what was happening to them. It was as though they thought sitting in congestion was a bad TV show, and that by honking they might somehow change the channel and be transported to a clear roadway." - Mike Yang via Bookmarklet
