Swan Season Three Cancelled
This is bad news. FOX didn’t pick up The Swan for a third season. I only hope the girls weren’t halfway through their transformations…
Never again will I cheer in glee at the dentist announcing:
FULL! MOUTH! RECONSTRUCTION!
Blogger’s Meme
Terrance tagged me so I’m answering these questions… I tag Sam and Jake and Madge:
If we are single or in a monogamous relationship?
In a monogamous relationship.
How long we have been with our partner/significant other/boy/girlfriend?
4 years on September 3rd.
How we met?
I saw him come into the Caribou Coffee shop on Broadway and Aldine. Saw his smile, his arms and his handsome eyes. He was reading Margaret Cho’s book – I’d just finished it – that was my in.
What we like to do together?
Go to the gym (though we train separately because we bicker to much together), rent movies, play with my cat…
If we are single, what life with our ideal spouse/partner would look like?
N/A
See Ya Tomorrow
Thank God – I just tested my laptop running a slide presentaiton and the video out is working. I’d never tried that before. I’m presenting tomorrow afternoon at the World Futurist Conference on ‘Blogs and the Global Conversation’ – finalizing my slides and etc. Wish me luck!
Bush Gives the Middle Finger
You’ll hope that Jay Leno is kidding as he sets up a video clip of Bush flipping off the press. You pray to yourself that surely this isn’t our smirking chimp leader doing something so incredibly inappropriate – yet again. And your prayers will fall on deaf ears.
Paul Hackett, Jean Schmidt and BDSM
- Paul Hackett is running for Ohio’s 2nd congressional district
- Husband, father, Iraq War veteran
- He’s running against Jean Schmidt who runs on a ‘family values’ platform
- Schmidt’s campaign manager had BDSM profiles online at CollarMe.com
- This isn’t about ‘outing’ – this is about hypocrisy
- "Schmidt is running around, talking about the evil gays and family values, while her campaign manager is engaged in bashing people in alternative lifestyle."
- Republic of T doing complete coverage: It might feel good to "not stoop to their level" and to take the "high road." But at the end of the day, if the "high road" doesn’t lead to the White House or Capitol Hill and the low road does, then maybe it’s time to consider a change in tactics.

Online Marketing Superstars Debuts at #7 on Amazon
Guerrilla Marketing Coach Mitch Meyerson’s new book – Success Secrets of the Online Marketing Superstars – debuted this week at #7 on Amazon – overall. The book features top marketing experts Mark Victor Hansen, Robert Allen, Joe Vitale, my buddy Michael Port and me. Yup: I wrote the chapter on blogs and RSS feeds and how they can be used to leverage the internet for instant, global marketing. If you order the book online you get a bonus pack of extra goodies and videos.

Yes – that makes me a SUPAH-STAH! just like Mary-Catherine Gallagher.
Arianna Huffington: Judith Miller is the Leak
Fun possibility – I’d never thought of this:
Miller doesn’t want to reveal her "source" at the White House – because she was the source. Sure, she first got the info from someone else, and the odds are she wasn’t the only one who clued in Libby and/or Rove (the State Dept. memo likely played a role too)… but, in this scenario, Miller certainly wasn’t an innocent writer caught up in the whirl of history. She had a starring role in it. This also explains why Miller never wrote a story about Plame, because her goal wasn’t to write a story, but to get out the story that cast doubts on Wilson’s motives. Which Novak did.
Happy Birthday Blog!
5 years ago I stumbled into the blogosphere with a post about MSN. Since then I’ve blogged my love life, my work life and my general life life. This blog ended up becoming a catalog of my political education. Past names of this blog include: Wibblog, Bi Next Door, Polymorph Self, Isopure Miso Soup You So Crazy, When Panics Attack and then finally Andymatic. I started off in Blogger, moved to Movable Type and then settled into WordPress. I wanted to do a ‘highlights’ reel but it is still early.
Actually I’m wrong. I misread my own archives – the actual five year anniversary was July 18th. Ah well. Move alone then.
