Shelly Ricky and Her Cigarbox Ukulele
Nice voice and fantastic cigarbox ukelele fabricating. Here is a 1987 toe tapper from Basia which Nemski probably missed on account of all the time he spent in the mosh pit with the cool kids.
Liveblogging the 14th District Democratic District Meeting
Redwaterlily (aka Suzanne) is liveblogging the proceedings here. I think that this is the first official Democratic function John Brady is attending after the big switch this afternoon.
QOTE
Why aren’t baseball players allowed to lie to Congress if our own Attorney General and basically the entire DOJ can and do?
Bailout 2.0

Carper Don.
Our illustrious Senator Tom Carper made an appearance on WDEL’s afternoon news yesterday to sell the economic stimulus package. In so doing, I think he made shit up. First, he said that “leading experts” agree that the bill, out of which hundreds of billions were cut from vital programs, is about as big as it […]
