January 28th, 2009 · No Comments

I wandered by the White House on Sunday before the swearing in and there was the moving van. Weird how the truck was also white and full of crap.

Chicago’s Grant Park, November 4, 2008

November 7th, 2008 · No Comments

So here’s one of the more unflattering pictures I’ve posted of myself. I hopped on the plane after the polls closed in Ohio to get to Grant Park. I had a colleague that had picked up my press cred the day before. She handed it off to me while I was in a cab on […]

This banner was held up by two tractors on the side of the freeway near Jonesburg, MO. I did a video about it. Click here to view it.

The last week of the 2008 presidential campaign.

October 27th, 2008 · No Comments

I’m a unrepentant political junkie. I am. Of the 157 presidential debates…I watched every single one. I take notes. Watch all Sunday shows. Read candidate’s books. Forget to eat or leave the house for days. I love it. I live for this stuff.
This has been the most riveting campaign I have ever Twittered. Hands down.
The […]

LA Cityview 35

April 7th, 2008 · No Comments

In case you missed it on TV - I was on channel 35’s LA Cityview’s show about politics and comedy. You can go to the site and on the right side there is a link for show #36. Just click that and watch.
The producer said it was the funniest show they had ever done.
Of course, […]

Washington DC

March 4th, 2008 · No Comments

I spent a week in DC. Great times. Great town. This is what I have brought back to share with you all:
This is the Department of Education building on Independence Avenue - right down the street from the Capitol. They’re little red school houses to celebrate, maybe? Promote? Trivialize? Bush’s education policy.
Look - No […]

First Amendment Day, Iowa State

April 22nd, 2007 · No Comments

This was the line-up of political comedians for the event. Pictured (left to right) is Barry Crimmins, myself and Baratunde Thurston.
Barry is a political satire LEGEND. You may know his work from when he wrote for Randi Rhodes on Air America. Buy his book. He’s amazing. He said something so stellar about me […]

Go go Cusco

Hey Yawl…
I’m trekking along the Inca Trails for the next couple of weeks. Why? Because its the closest place I could think of where my cell phone won’t work. This is VERY un-American of me, but I need a vacation and I’m taking one.
I’ll post pictures.
Smootches.

Cold, Hard, Cash

February 17th, 2006 · 5 Comments

Minus 9 degrees fahrenheit. That’s actually a temperature. That’s what it is outside right now.
I had to bundle up to meet the pizza delivery guy at the door last night.
Yikes.
Pain. It’s so cold it hurts. It feels like duct tape being ripped off your skin when you step outside.
This is a day where I think […]

Frozen Tundra or the Big Chill of ‘06

February 16th, 2006 · 1 Comment

It is currently 2 degrees outside. Snow is in the forecast for tomorrow. It’s supposed to get down to -9 or so…Icy snowy ‘wintery mix’.
I may get stuck here. Where am I? Bozeman…Bozeman, MT. My cell phone doesn’t work. My entire computer didn’t blow up…just my wifi card. So this is the first time I […]

-He’s going to go ‘hunting’ with Patrick Leahy next week.
-Bush says Cheney did a ‘heck of a job’.
-This is the LEAST amount of harm the administration has done to the health […]

Yikes.
My 2nd hand laptop has blown up. Not like smoking, sparks - cool blow up. Just frozen, spittle - bye bye laptop.
So I’m blogging from the good old reliable cell phone key pad. Hard core.
Oh and by the way…I’m being spammed in the comments so bad that I accidentally deleted a TON of real […]

My room smells like french fries…
So if you’re generally an unhelpful, snotty yet slow witted person…best not to work at a hotel. What with all the annoying people asking you dumb questions like,”Where’s the work out room?” and “Is there a good place to eat?” Sorry to tear you away from Yahoo Games, Princess, but […]
