Scraping the Bottom of the Barrel
While perhaps not in the same category of the kind of screwups Jeremy lambastes their film division for, I think it is clear that Rupert Murdoch's FOX has, at this moment, reached an absolute and all-time low water mark for television in this country. Yes, lower than all of your WHO WANTS TO MARRY A MULTI-MILLIONAIREs and TEMPTATION ISLANDs and THE SWANs put together and multiplied a thousanfold:
On Monday, Nov. 27 and Wednesday, Nov. 29, O.J. Simpson, acquitted murderer and NFL Hall-of-Famer, will star in a two-part FOX special sensitively titled "O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here's How It Happened." ... I feel dirty just having read that. And so should you. More here. 11.14.2006

Vote Early and Often
Grapplers
This might be the funniest thing you will see today. It was produced by a sitting United States Senator. Given the particular candidate, what's wrong with this picture?
You make the call. 11.03.2006
Cloud of Ideas
Here's a nifty little thing.
It's a "tag cloud", as the hep kids call them these days, that "shows the popularity, frequency, and trends in the usages of words within speeches, official documents, declarations, and letters written by the Presidents of the US between 1776 - 2006." The bigger the size of the word as it appears in the cloud, the more often it was used and the more emphasis was placed on it. Move the little slider at the top back and forth on the timeline and see what words pop out for the different presidents, and even how those decisions changed within the term of that president's service. 11.01.2006
