Did You Know?
Did you know that Katy Perry's cat's name is Kitty Purry?
I have a lot of respect for that.

Jesus Island + Lessons in Typography
I was suffering my way through traffic last night. Nothing abnormal about that. From the darkness of tail lights and red traffic signals came the Message. The license plate frame on the car in front of me called, and I was stricken. Stricken to a dead stop.
"What!" I was riveted, bemused, bewildered. Humbled.
"Jesus Island" it read in lush, tropical script.
What the hell kind of place is Jesus Island? My mind was racing! Edging ever closer to the car in front of me, I really needed to know more about this magical place. Is this where whores and the downtrodden sunned and surfed? Where things most hedonistic were forgiven, and buildings well constructed? A place where the only smote-ing was of the rock lobster and bathing suits? An island of supernatural beauty — where no hurricane would ever disrupt a honeymoon ever again? This sounds like my kind of place!
I mean, this is JESUS ISLAND.
When the ethereal lights from my fellow traffic shone true on the license plate frame advertising my salvation and eternal happiness, I saw that it actually read "Jesus Is Lord."
Well, no shit.
What a typographic disaster! A plain old piece of poor kerning and an even worse script font... my heart sunk. I mean, I really thought that I had stumbled onto something. Jesus Island, man. I mean, JESUS F-ING ISLAND!
By my own suppositions, I regard Jamaica will have to be close enough.

Inauguration Weekend + Gonna Be Nutty!
Well. It is my last post before the Inauguration. Due to the new house and not having InterWeb set up quite yet.
I am feeling a bit reflective, but will spare you the over-wordiness because I have a severe case of trigger finger. It's annual report season, you know.
Anyhow, everyone enjoy the next few days, they should prove historic. Pray for me and my fellow citizens, it should be pretty nuts here. Shut out of a local party by the throngs of countrymen descending on this little area. I can't wait for the crush. House-bound we be?
UPDATE: I did just score 2 tickets, but I have not decided whether or not I'll go. Bars open until 4 am. Additional 2 to 6 million in the city, every major highway and bridge closed. Figure I have to. Sorry Eric. I didn't plan on this. I happened into the tickets about 30 minutes ago.
Either way. Champagne in hand, hoping for all of us.
I leave you with this. I posted it a while ago... but enjoy how much closer we get with every flicker of time.

Krugman + Forgive and Forget? + Op-Ed
"Let’s be clear what we’re talking about here. It’s not just torture and illegal wiretapping, whose perpetrators claim, however implausibly, that they were patriots acting to defend the nation’s security. The fact is that the Bush administration’s abuses extended from environmental policy to voting rights. And most of the abuses involved using the power of government to reward political friends and punish political enemies."

Look for the excellent cameo, by a great lad, a missed lad. Mr. John Lennon jamming out. "Yer Blues, John."
And a cool studio bonus:
