Our friends at Misplaced Planet (the guys responsible for the too-hot-for-MoveOn “Obama and the Red Phone” video) have a new web series called “Hell Frove Over“. It’s about a woman who’s decided to go on a date with every man shes ever turned-down. While not overtly political, it contains frank discussions of sex and sexuality [...]
Special thanks to funny man Jim for the tip.
So I voted in my local primary yesterday, thanks to a lot of pushy canvasers lambasting me while I was walking my dog. None of them seemed to know anything about the candiates dog related policies, but they complimented Baxter’s unique coloring, and asked me if I was going to vote. I lied and said [...]
It isn’t every day that you see someone you know grace the pages of perezhilton.com. But pinko poster and fellow Hampshire alum Wilder has just sent me a link to a story about our old classmate Caroline Murphy and her lady friend fiancée actress Heather Matarazzo. (Whoohoo!)

Accordingly, I’ve followed the case and yesterday the unthinkable happened: Betancourt was rescued, alive. This is incredible news and very unexpected: These situations usually don’t end well but Betancourt is alive and [...]
I’ve been watching the Obama/Clinton rally in Unity, NH, and as a communications strategist I’m pretty impressed with the whole spectacle, from the matching blue outfits on up. As a progressive I’m glad to see them coming together. It is strange though: The whole issue of the last month is “will women support Obama,” and [...]
Just as an FYI, the California Supreme Court overturned their ban on gay marriage today. If you bump in to Suze Orman on your way to the chapel, be sure to tell her Pinko Magazine says “wassup”.
One of the interesting things about trying to live a more “green” lifestyle is learning all about what a remarkable product bamboo can be, and how versatile it is as a sustainable material.
