Mrs. Peel

And spoke at an ACORN event.

Geez, thanks for that cold water shower, Tracy.

Andrew Sullivan wrote a fantastic essay about the state of the country since 9/11 and why he is so confident in Obama, even though he doesn't agree with him on every issue. I don't want to copy it here because it is very long. It's well worth the time though.

In CT: More than 2 million people registered to vote before the registration deadline expired Tuesday night. That represents approximately three-quarters of the state's voting-age population. Pretty cool.

Yeah, that was really cool. And then he puts in that second tape and hears himself as a child, playing with the dictaphone. That was a really special moment. Joss, I guess you were looking for something different than I was....I didn't see it as a documentary about quantum mechanics, or even a play by play history of Hugh Everett. For me, the appeal of it was that it was about Mark uncovering so much of his father that he never knew existed and finally coming to understand his lack of a personal relationship with him.

Oh man, that's terrible. They remain one of my favorite bands of all time. RIP, Frank.

Happy belated birthday, everyone!

Oh my god, that's bad.

Happy Halloween!

All very good, keep 'em coming! No one has hit on my Rayburn answer though.

HAHAHA! Thanks for that.

Pretty good, pretty good.

I'll be like Gene Rayburn on The Match Game and say that there is one obvious answer to this riddle, but it may not be obvious to anyone else, so go all Charles Nelson Reilly on it if you want to.

Oh man, that's depressing.

My mom just sat with people at a dinner two nights ago who said Obama was a Muslim. I mean, come on.

And throwing as much shit at the wall as they can possibly think of, hoping that some of it will stick and people will mindlessly believe what they're hearing. That's what I'm worried about.

Big Country I can't get the sendspace link to work. I feel the same way, El.

How cool is that? It's times like these that make me wish I'd stuck with my original Archaelogy major in college. It's so incredible that new things are still being discovered that may alter our perception of history as we know it.

As for Nels playing over the end, I had another Colbert Report Tivoed and I watched the end of it to check out the closing song. I didn't hear any difference between the two. I would love it if Nels had played though!

I don't think that was Nels. That's the way the ending song always sounds.
