Or, presumably, one of his staffers twitters for him. The perfect twitter stream for people who know what both ICYMI and SASC mean. Which would be, basically, nobody.

Um, I don’t think that means what you think it means

More than I wanted to know about the Obama’s personal lives.

Thought for the day

A lot of people I know think I’m not excited enough about Obama. “He’ll will be a better president than Bush” they tell me. This is like being excited because your mailman is better than David Berkowitz. Not good enough. Maybe he’ll be awesome, but I’m not counting my chickens yet.

Things I wish weren’t in my brain: Old tv shows edition

So I was reading this post, about Barack Obama’s transportation policy, and the first thing that pops into my head is the hideous 70s tv show Supertrain (kind of like the Loveboat, but on a giant nuclear powered train):

Not energy policy or the challenges of the coming administration. Supertain. My brain is full of the most unbelievable crap from the 70s and 80s. Completely useless stuff. Why do I remember Supertrain? What good is it doing me? I could use that memory space for useful stuff like remembering where I put my cell phone. Oh well.
Other shows I remember even though I would rather not:
Hello Larry (kind of like Fraser, except with McLain Stevenson and not funny)

Also, Manimal (kind of like, um, nothing else I can think of fortunately):
