AP needs help picking a hat

needs help picking a

I'm indecisive about a lot of things but I really need help picking out which hat to go with. This decision has taken me far too long, so I'm asking for your help. I'm going to try to pick one out by the end of the day or maybe the very beginning of next week. I'm not that big of a baseball fan but I want to get a baseball hat. Because I'm not that big of a fan I don't have that strong of a loyalty to any team. I will say that as a sports fan it's hard for me to imagine wearing a hat of a team that isn't from NY though. Anyway, here are my options:

Atlanta- I kind of like them and I dig the A.
Pittsburg - This is probably one of my favorite logos. I just really digg the old school P.
the Mets - I was a Mets fan growing up
Yankees - although there is a lot not to like about the Yanks (Big Green refers to them as the 'haves') they do still represent NY better than anyone. A Yankees hat is just as much a sign of where you are from as it is of a team you like.

What do you think?

Trouble the Water

CTSH (the Clarence Thomas Scale of Hate)

When I was home, Gus and I went out and discussed life and politics. He came up with an amazing way of scaling thing's that infuriate us. After talking about how much we hated Clarence Thomas, Gus referred to another thing he hated on 'the Clarence Thomas Scale of Hate.' He expanded on it for me via email. Another important thing to remember was that this was at the end of October, about a little over a week before the election.

9 - Olives/Bill O'Reilly

10 - Justice Thomas (Could just as easily be the Ann Coulter scale)

11 - Undecideds

It's been a while.

Sorry everyone. We took a bit of a break after the election. Now we're back. Posts galore coming. I hope. In the meantime check out this ridiculous rainbow we had the other day. It was seriously the strongest I've ever seen.
I promise the future posts will get better.

Heaven Help Me

For the last seven years, AP's been talking about the 1985 film, "Heaven Help Us," starring a young Andrew McCarthy (also Kevin "Drama" Dillon, and Donald Sutherland). HHU is directed by a man named Michael Dinner, which delights me, if nothing else. My husband loves this movie so much that he snuck it onto our queue when I wasn't looking. So, I guess my night is going to be all about catholic school high jinks.

I didn't attend catholic school, but I did go to CCD, where I was abused by Sister Ruth, who, looking back now, was probably only 4'10'' but had the bite of a big old dog. She told me my parents were absolutely going to hell because they were divorced. I wish, instead of crying, I barraged that hag with some McCartheyesque antics, enough to have brought her rightly to her knees. Oh well. Live and learn.

Congratulations President Obama!

Wolf Blitzer is talking to a hologram right now.

Update: WILL.I.AM VIA HOLOGRAM. I took this picture but didn't get a chance to post it last night. Everyone seemed to love this momement.

Who's got the coolest graphics?

Chuck Todd is in a big virtual room with a giant virtual map next to him. It's actually kind of scary. John King has the 'Magic Board'. Then there's all the crazy interactive maps on line. Which is your fav?

Did McCain really vote?

Why was there no coverage of McCain voting? On almost every channel, we watched the Obamas vote (for about 20 minutes) followed immediately by Biden and his mom. Not much later, Palin voted and even came out and said hi to the press. But when it came time for McCain, no one could get a shot of him. All the shots were of the outside of his polling place and basically just showed a bunch of other cameramen scrambling around. Did he do that on purpose? I thought it was the kind of thing candidates loved. What the heck? Now they have a video of him voting but I'm still skeptical.

TMT Voted!
