Alberto Gonzales wants to know why everybody hates him and thinks he’s the worst, baby-eatingest AG we’ve ever had.
It appears that Alberto Gonzales has not read his own Wikipedia entry recently.
But there’s hope yet. Stalin just got his props as the third greatest Russian ever, easily besting every other Russian ever, except for two. We [...]

Tracked Down!
December 31st, 2008 · No Comments · Media
It’s been a while since anybody threatened the Herald’s Inside Track gals with a Pulitzer. This we know.
Still, today’s Tracked Down was bizarre, even by Track standards. Spotted: Bob Hedlund buying vegetables!
Beacon Hill pols: They’re just like us!

“You’re the Senator!” “You’re the Governor!”

Here’s a video in which crooked Illinois governor Rod Blogojevich’s pick for Senate, Roland Burris, says he is maybe too broke to have bribed Blago for the privilege of waltzing into Washington. Maybe. He’ll have to check. That’s a lot of money.

Scraps of Paper
December 29th, 2008 · No Comments · Media
I get up in the morning. I read the papers. I put in my hours in the cube.
And, in the intervening time period, everybody in the world hits that hot bloggy item that I’d been saving for 5pm. The one from the Journal about the Globe only being worth $20 million.
Most everybody in the world doubts [...]

You’ll notice a B and T stub to the right, cold chilling with the rest of my clips. Click that thing. Then read all the hottt commercial real estate news [...]

Comin’ to Town

Yeah, so that probably wasn’t the way to backpedal into the holidays — with the hulking (and occasionally terrifyingly shirtless) specter of Vladimir Putin shoving kleptocrat porn in everybody’s face. Let’s see if this works better.
First up, a truly inspired moment in Jesusy Christmas journalism. Wonkette fires this salvo at Rick (RICK!) Warren’s smug dome: [...]
Putin’s Present
December 24th, 2008 · No Comments · Politics
Merry Xmas, world! Vladimir Putin’s got a couple presents for you: A cowed and coopted opposition in one hand, and a shivering band of dangerously independent democrats in the other. Hooray for the spirit of giving and charity etc!

Yesterday, the Summer Street bridge wasn’t plowed, so I had to walk through several inches of snow and ice and other unpleasantness to get to and from work.
Today, the city wanted to make everything better. So they sent out a front-end loader to plow the thing off. At 8:30 in the morning. Right when everybody’s [...]
