Doctor Governor? Governor Doctor?
Several new articles in the press clipping page – including a good overview in The NY Times yesterday about Gov. Dean’s position on Iraq.
And speaking of “Gov. Dean” – the Dean Blog raises a question that has puzzled me as well: is it Governor Dean, Former Governor Dean, Dr. Dean, or something else? The convention when referring […]
Panic is the new black…
I have no idea what Tom Ridge’s color scheme means, though I thought SNL’s parody – which had the color chart in various shades of white (bone, off-white, cream, etc.) was hysterical.
But this news – that the UK troops are being brought in to guard Heathrow through Saturday – does not make me happy. Did […]
Will blog for gadgets…
Doc Searls stolen laptop.
What’s Up, Doc?. Like many of you, I was shocked when I learned that my buddy Doc had his laptop stolen. What a crock! Well, it’s time to give back to the man who’s given so much to this community. I’ve set up a PayPal donation link. Let’s get that man […]
What he said.
Josh Marshall wants to know who else got help from GOP Marketplace last election.
Yeah, I think I’d like to know too.
This is what they refer to as “honor and dignity”, right?
ABA Journal: A Giant Falls
Now this is more like it. The ABA goes beyond the obvious soundbite and actually digs a little, exposing some of the root causes of Brobeck’s failure. Turns out the firm borrowed heavily to finance the debt – the article not-so-subtly lays this decision at Tower Snow’s feet – and couldn’t make its quarterly partner […]
Hot potato, hot potato…
If you know the rest of the words to that song (“cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti, mash banana, mash banana”) then you’ll appreciate this article at Newsweek on The Wiggles.
My wife and I took our two sons to a concert last fall in Chicago, and it was surprisingly fun. The kids (well, the two year-old, at […]

New York donors waiting on the sidelines…
Nice little scoop by Joel Siegel in NY Daily News this morning: top New York financial supporters are holding off on giving any money to the Democratic contenders.
In a lot of ways, this helps the underdogs (esp. Dean) and hurts the front-runners. NY is one of the key money states for Democrats – and if […]
Dean making an impression
AP reports today that Dean “could be a factor” in Iowa (due to his omnipresence there of late) and “is making an impression” in South Carolina.
This early in the race, I’d say the campaign is doing well establishing a toehold in the states that matter. If they can secure strong financial support in this quarter, […]
Radio tweak: editor size
From the helpful folks at thought?horizon comes this useful tweak:
We have just added a useful tip on how to modify the size of the editor window used to write posts. The short depth of 9 lines makes longer posts difficult.
The basic steps are:
Open the Radio Userland console
Open Root.root tables
Navigate to user.radio.prefs.browserBasedEditorSize
Set […]
