If you haven't heard about or seen it, honestly don't waste your time.

Poll with a bunch of no-names informs ignorant readers everywhere.

I, like most of the rest of america don't care about the primaries. I can't wait 'til they are over so we can start hearing the real contenders whine and sling mud, with an occasional trespassing of some 3rd party nutcase.

Serious, who is this "Thompson", and why should anyone care?

Nope. Not one of them.

The frequency of emails has gone up, but the quality, roughly constant.

Why you should never trust a blog for your news... (except this one, naturally)

It is a good thing that I
a) don't read these things at all
b) don't care much for politics
c) didn't jump off a bridge at this news

because
d) it was wrong.

Not bishop Simpson!?!?

Well, I followed the Gonzales debacle as closely as the next guy (basically not at all) but it really brings it home when someone I've come to know and love is affected. That is why this email brought me to tears. There wasn't a dry eye in my congregation. RIP Bishop Stampson.

First --insert band name-- now Boston?

I've heard that the number of deaths goes up in the cold of winter, but here we have a real tragedy. The Vocalist for the hit/hip band "Boston" was found dead? That leaves one less band intact that I know only by familiarity with the location after which they are named. Can someone please go by all remaining members of the bands Kansas, Asia, Europe, Africa, and Chicago to ensure that all is well? Thanks in advance!

It's going to be a rough month I can already tell.
