My first reaction was the same. The daily readings, the flirtations, maybe, but the references to his adopted daughter as a "thing" in front of complete strangers seems awfully far-fetched. She's a member of his family whether he did or didn't know about Cindy's planned adoption. Whatever...

I hope that e-mail is being sent to all those assholes who deluged Cyberspace with their anti-Obama crap six months ago.

Scary stuff. Glad your dad's friend is OK, but it was very foolish of him to stay even if the outcome wasn't so bad.

As it turns out, you went next to last. Had OG not been away I'm fairly certain he would have beat you to your best picture, director, editing and sound choices.

Latest: Lindsay Lohan has denied reports she is set to wed her rumoured girlfriend Samantha Ronson. The Mean Girls star was allegedly planning to walk down the aisle with the Los Angeles DJ, after Ronson reportedly told party-goers at a recent gig: "By the end of the year, my love will be Mrs ...

That's hilarious, but the know nothings will only dig in harder. I think that what it will take for the small but possibly deciding sector of the electorate to come to their collective senses and vote for Obama or if they can't bring themselves to do that, to at least sit out the election, is not t...

I guess after all these hours it's assume to assume that OG will not be logging on and we can pass him by as he indicated would be OK in his "out of town for the weekend" post.

Magilla, are willing to put money on that? On what, that it will be a close election or that McCain will win? I think it will be close unless as I said, the "older white men and women" wake up, but even though I think it will be close, I think Obama will win but not by the landslide he sh...

I've given up applying logic when it comes to the Presidential race. I'm looking at it now from the perspective of what plays to the masses. Like it or not, this election could still very well be decided on personalities. Those for whom integrity and what's best for them as well as the country have...

I watched and thought he answered them very well, not that I agree with his answers, but he held his own. I can't say the same about Cindy, who was visibly annoyed that Barbara Walters dared to ask her how many houses she actually owned and refused to answer the question.

But how did it play to all those "older white women" who are allegedly so impressed by her? Hopefully not very well, but as the wise man once said "never underestimate the bad taste of the American public." On a related note I haven't seen the new Obama ad they're talking about ...

I saw The Small Back Room a few years ago as part of a Michael Powell retrospective at Lincoln Center. I liked it, although I'm not nearly as enthusiastic about it as Daniel. The film contains some instances of Powell's tendency to be over-emphatic in character and theme and excessive in his visual...
