The amazing Margot put me on to the big event Thursday: The Women’s Gold Medal Match in Beach Volleyball, starring the US dream team of Misty May and Kerri Walsh. Apparently they hug. A lot.
How cute is that!? Also who in the world is named Misty May, and if your name was Misty May are [...]
Everyone has been watching the Olympics this weekend, ourselves included. But while we’ve been speculating whether Michael Phelps shaves, waxes, or is just freakishly hairless, the world has been going on without us. Here is a look at some of the things you may have missed.
The Republican National Committee hates Smarty farties.
The RNC is now [...]
So I kind of thought Barack Obama would look hotter on a bike than this. Is is the crazy mud guard thing? The helmet? He totally hates on that helmet. Still, he looks better than John McCain does on his bike.
