  • From Democrats.org:

    Immediately after the debate, we need you to do three things: vote in online polls, write a letter to the editor, and call in to talk radio programs. Your 10 minutes of activism following the debate can make the difference. *** VOTE ***

  • Pamie, I don’t often see

    [readermail] Pamie, I don’t often see you posting overtly political links on your blog, but this link leads to the website poynter.org, which is devoted to the discussion of journalism by journalists. The first two entries are a long email that Wall Street Journal reporter Farnaz Fassihi (currently in Baghdad) wrote to friends back in…

  • Use Your Voice

    Here’s what I did today. You can do it, too. I went here to locate the name of my U.S. Representative (which I should know anyway, and now I do so that makes me a better American).

  • dan wants to help more models

    Potes is recapping for TWoP, and I have proof! Just in case you forgot to read her brilliant Top Model recap, here’s that link again. This is some funny shit from the person I’ve often referred to as “the other half of my brain.”

  • y’all don’t know!

    Oh, my God. Jerry Springer is still on the air? It’s like I paused 1997. The same crew, the same bald bouncers who stand in between fighting couples who have more tattoos than teeth. I can’t believe this is still on. Jerry paved the way for Fear Factor, The Swan and any television show starting…

  • Do it!

    I think it’s important to tell you that I am at the center of some freaky kind of job karma. People are landing dream jobs right and left of me, from book deals to television shows to newspaper gigs. They’re going after jobs they didn’t think they could get, and getting them. I’ve been telling…
