i am so jealous of tommy! he does a lot of work on the web site for 2020democrats, and they paid for him to go to some conference today on politics and technology. joe trippi spoke, and next, he's going to a debate moderated by david talbot! no fair. all i'm doing is sitting behind my desk, dreaming about a margarita. or something along those lines. one of those tropical drinks that i love to go on about. with a little umbrella, perhaps. well, i'm not sure being at a nerdy political conference would be that much better.

mmm. alcohol.

Its glycemic index value (more about that later) is significantly less, so it shouldn't be grouped with other starchy carbohydrates that dieters fear." people, just EAT OLIVE OIL! and all will be good!

  • FROM THE DRUDGE REPORT: KERRY USES AN EXPLETIVE TO DESCRIBE A SECRET SERVICE AGENT WHO KNOCKED HIM OVER. GWB HAS NEVER USED AN EXPLETIVE. OH WAIT. man. writing in all caps is fun.
