She blew my mind with blogging!

karendc blew my mind with a post at dKos this morning.

Maybe that is an unfortunate idiom, in light of the fact that it deals with the problem of US soldiers getting shot in the head. But, at this point, worrying about the appropriateness of idiomatic phrases seems awfully indulgent.

From the comments at the Democracy Cell Project x-post: "One office is investigating…. Tall guy."

Said Tall Guy is pictured here, with Governor Deval Patrick, at Ciara Durkin's funeral. We can only hope that the investigation will go smoothly, and that this war will end SOON. Because there is no joy in posting a photo like this, ever, ever, ever.

Tie Day: We love streaming Canadian Video!

Kerrycrats,

You saw the interview with George Stephanopolous on ABC.

But what about the interview with George Stroumboulopolis on the CBC?

Confused?

You won't be, if you check out this video Raelynne sent me. It's Canadian, so there are even a few funny moments! Thanks, Raelynne!

I recommend viewing it on Windows Media Player. I was able to see the beginning pretty well, and really enjoyed the JK-Hottness-Through-the-Ages montage (my term, not CBC's), but video-loading trouble kicked in before I could do any serious tie-spotting. Harumph. At least the audio worked, so I didn't have to miss even a second of the wicked smaht.

I did notice that JK was sporting a shirt with vertical stripes, which was most clever of him. I mean, if you've got to go on TV, for heaven's sake, do your best to look tall and thin, right?

Any Kerrycrat who can distinguish the Senator from the columns and take a stab at what tie he's got on wins at streaming Canadian video. For real.

Kerry On folks - you're good at it!
