You know what? I changed my mind.

I just wrote a post about Palin's horrific showing in yet another Katie Couric interview, but on second thought these tidbits are even better, so I deleted that post and am on with this one, full throttle. (BTW: the interview info is here and here.)
The L.A. Times is reporting that Governor Palin said that "dinosaurs and humans walked the earth at the same time." This sounds like some "young earth" sneaky creationism to me. I do not approve of this non-scientific bent.
Additionally, there may be even more to come from the "Couric Interview Palin" files. Most notably, a clip in which Palin can't name any Supreme Court ruling but Roe v. Wade. Not Brown v. Board, not Plessy v. Ferguson, not Dred Scott nor Miller v. California... all of which I can name off the top of my head and I am neither a lawyer nor a major-party candidate for the office of Vice President (thank goodness for that).

RIP Paul Newman

I loved you.

Jack Cafferty took the words out of my mouth

".. that was one of the most pathetic pieces of tape I have ever seen..."
Preach it, Jack!

Upon cleaning under the cushions of my couch...

... I found one of these beauties.
That's right -- 3mgs. of Lunesta.
I can only surmise that Rita Jean must have swooned onto my sofa while visiting.
And please do not judge me that it took me so long to find it. I was, quite frankly, made for finer things than vacuuming my sofa.

This is what we're getting up to after the wedding. Shocking!

Welcome to New Hampshire.

It's this weekend!

Goldfish knockoff?

What the right really thinks of Palin

This is so delicious.
Peggy Noonan and Mike Murphy, GOP pundits, caught on-mic talking about Palin as a VP choice.
And, yes, my partisan stripes are showing.
Video:

Transcript:
Chuck Todd: Mike Murphy, lots of free advice, we'll see if Steve Schmidt and the boys were watching. We'll find out on your blackberry. Tonight voters will get their chance to hear from Sarah Palin and she will get the chance to show voters she's the right woman for the job Up next, one man who's already convinced and he'll us why Gov. Jon Huntsman.

(cut away)

Peggy Noonan: Yeah.

Mike Murphy: You know, because I come out of the blue swing state governor world: Engler, Whitman, Tommy Thompson, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush. I mean, these guys -- this is how you win a Texas race, just run it up. And it's not gonna work. And --

PN: It's over.

MM: Still McCain can give a version of the Lieberman speech to do himself some good.

CT: I also think the Palin pick is insulting to Kay Bailey Hutchinson, too.

PN: Saw Kay this morning.

CT: Yeah, she's never looked comfortable about this --

MM: They're all bummed out.

CT: Yeah, I mean is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?

PN: The most qualified? No! I think they went for this -- excuse me-- political bullshit about narratives --

CT: Yeah they went to a narrative.

MM: I totally agree.

PN: Every time the Republicans do that, because that's not where they live and it's not what they're good at, they blow it.

MM: You know what's really the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism, and this is cynical.

CT: This is cynical, and as you called it, gimmicky.

MM: Yeah.

Special thanks to the slog.

This movie looks like it might garner Sean Penn another Oscar nomination

Since nothing is happening in my actual life to warrant a post and it's been weeks and weeks without an update, here is a trailer for Milk, the bio-pic about Harvey Milk. I'll totally go see this.
