Those of you determined to resist Obama-mania, or simply amused by the novel gender politicsl embodied in the latest Clinton candidacy, should check out these snappy Bill for First Gentleman items. The creator of the merch, Lee Tyler, says that "proceeds go towards the production of South African electro and funny comedy shorts." And who can't get behind that? Wallets open, forward march!

Friend Dave Hanson has joined the Web-olution! (That seems just lame enough to be a word.) He's writing for a new site called Sex, Lies, and Hollywood, where browsers can satisfy their need for snarky gossip as quickly and efficiently as a deep-net trawler scours the oceans free of all life.

Seriously, there's a picture of Aretha Franklin that'll make you lose your appetite. Forever.

Random thought #1: I was as impressed as anybody during the regular season, and I was rooting for the Pats to win because the Giants bore the crap out me. But now that the Super Bowl is over, can we dispense with the idea that this year's Pats team was the best ever? If the Giants did that to them, what would the '85 Bears have done? The real question is, would Brady have been KILLED? You beat the Pats by running on their undersized defense, and pressuring Brady. That is precisely what the Bears could do. (BTW, I was going to link to a vicious, vicious hit by Wilber Marshall, but the NFL has taken it down. Punks.)

Random thought #2: In the last fifteen years, how I'd always planned to earn my living--stringing together amusing words--has been rendered almost worthless by the internet. With a practically limitless amount of funny writing now available at the click of a mouse, how will people like me--people with the ability and desire to make people laugh, but who aren't Will Ferrell--modify what they do to make money? This blog provides some interesting theories as to what will sell on the internet, and why.

Overheard at College. Just read it, you won't be disappointed.

"Guy: I slept with a bear once.
Girl: In what way?
Prof: Was it a mistake?
Guy: Oh, it was definitely a mistake."
Sarah Lawrence College

My favorite so far:

Guy: Guess what? I’m coming out to my parents over Thanksgiving!
Girl: Yeah?
Guy: Yeah, and I’ve already picked out my outfit.
Yale University


Kate just called this site "Playboy's party jokes, written by God."

(BTW, speaking of Playboy's party jokes, I recently learned that the little cartoon girl in the stockings who capered around in-between all the jokes was called "the Femlin.")
