- I am going to buy this. The man lived an amazing life; I’m interested in what his take on it will be. I’m also partial to bios. Right now, I’m reading Don’t Mind if I Do, by George Hamilton. Great stuff — entertaining and light, very much unlike Lennon: The Life, which took me all summer to get through.
- Don’t hassle the Hoff. I’m glad he’s all right.
- You could waste an awful lot of time playing with Google’s Easter eggs. Not that I’d know.
- I’ve gotten some feedback: Beatles Rockband is fantastic. I simply must have it.
- I watched the premiere of Heroes last night. Man, I gotta catch up on stuff. I’m completely lost.
- I have asked this question many times.
I wonder about many more things this day, but alas, I’m out of time. Feel free to add to my list from your own brain.

RE: #6 – I think the guys who get wrapped up in their little sex scandals behind the scenes while publicly espousing “family values” or fighting against things like gay marriage in order to “protect the sanctity of marriage” deserve no forgiveness in the political arena. Mark Sanford is a Grade AAAA example of this… ReplyRat Fink Reply:September 22nd, 2009 at 10:49 amI totally agree on the subject of personal hypocrisy, talking out both sides of the mouth, etc. And it transcends bedroom behavior, as you know.

Yeah, but Hillary didn’t have cancer when Bill had the affair.
Hey I want to read Kennedy too so don’t sell it on Half.com – then can we talk politics? Lunch sounds good – we are just eating supper after a GLORIOUS hike on the top of the world love you ReplyRat Fink Reply:September 22nd, 2009 at 1:33 pmHaha…YES you can read the Kennedy book when I’m done, and NO we cannot talk politics because you’re TOO CUTE to waste time talking about politics with! I say we spend our time with cooler subjects like books, gardening, movies, and of course, Johnny Depp. JUST KIDDING. Of course we can talk politics.… Read more »
I think that the Judeo-Christian spirit of forgiveness tends to dominate our collective culture, to the point that marital transgressions are forgiven provided the ‘sinner’ pay penance in a public forum. For some reason this gesture is validating, no matter how ugly the sin. If Edwards really was telling his mistress how he was waiting for his wife to die so they could be together, how heartless can you get?
