  • "� Sam Johnson ..." Here's the link to the YouTube video of Rep. Johnson's extraordinary closing speech on the Iraq resolution.

  • "� Amos 'n Andy ..." This was a blisteringly racist show (which had started as a wildly popular radio progam) which began it's TV run in 1951. The two main characters in the radio version were played by White guys who played their parts in the verbal version of Blackface.

    This is a photo of Horace Stewart who played a character named "Lightnin'" the dim-witted janitor at the Mystic Knights of the Sea Lodge where much of the action took place.


  • "� Flounder ..." I cannot believe that some Mullsters wouldn't understand this reference, but it comes from the 1978 film "Animal House."




    One of the pledges was named Kent "Flounder" Dorfman (played by Stephen Furst).



  • "� Maureen Dowd ..." Here's the link to the Dowd column in the NYT. NOTE: You will have to pay to read it in its entirety; enter at your own risk.

    Oh, wait! I found a version of her column on the Kansas City Star website.

  • "� Democracy Now ..." Here's the link to the Democracy Now coverage of Hillary's uncomfortable visit to New Hampshire.

    Mullfoto of the Day

    Ok. I know you think I make all this stuff up, which is not true. SOME of this is true. As in these two envelopes I dug out of the mailbox when I got home from my 26-hour trek back from Juneau last night.

    The one on the left was addressed to me. The one on the right was mis-delivered and addressed to my neighbor.

    Why, I am wondering, is my neighbor being offered $20 MORE a month in savings than I am?

    Any Earthlink lobbyists out there?

    I am in the middle of a moral dilemma as to whether I should even put this in my neighbor's door.

    Nah.


    Catchy Caption of the Day

    Actual Caption:

    Charlie, a Rottweiler mix, whose own mother rejected him, snuggles Wednesday, Feb. 14, 2007 with his substitute mother, Satin, at the Meriden Humane Society in Meriden, Conn. The cat had just had her own litter of kittens and took on Charlie in addition.

    As Woody Allen once wrote: And the Lion and the Lamb shall lie down together ... but the lamb won't get much sleep.
