Monday Monday

Where's that rain that I need...

Darrell Brock, Jr. of Eastern Kentucky is the new GOP chairman in the commonwealth. No word yet as to how many siblings he has had incest with. Sorry, I couldn't resist that (inside joke).

Melissa Joan Hart turns 29 today and funnyman Conan O'Brien is 42.

What's all the rage about? I find it hard that they errored in the headline!

The Washington Post takes a look at Senator Rick Santorum. You expecting a liberal spin from me? I don't know about that.
Sen. Barbara Boxer objected, saying it would be "rather exploitive to have a child present in the gallery" during such a debate. Santorum relented, bemoaning Boxer's objection as proof that "we have coarsened the comity of this place."

The same has been said of Santorum. In so many words, or facial gestures.

Sen. Mary Landrieu, the Louisiana Democrat, grimaces. "You couldn't quote what I'd have to say about him," she says.

Boxer (D-Calif.) says he has a knack for "becoming remarkably harsh and personal during debates."

Former Democratic senator Bob Kerrey once wondered whether Santorum is "Latin for [anus]." Teresa Heinz Kerry called him "Forrest Gump with an attitude." Howard Dean called him a liar. Then there are the crude Web sites and protesters outside his office, all of which Santorum takes with a measure of pride.
Other interesting quotes:
"Ford was a doofus," Santorum says, "and Carter I had no interest in."

So, the Senator hates President Gerald Ford, eh? Oh, and in news that upsets Democrats, Senator Kennedy was one of the first to offer condolences.

Insisting on running in 2006, Hillary Clinton abandons 2008 campaign. If only my wish was true.

The Red Sox are 61-48 on Patriots Day, which is celebrated tomorrow on April 19. Also, today in history, as a member of the Pawtucket Red Sox, Wade Box went 4-12 in one of the longest baseball games in history on April 18, 1981. The Sox took on the Rochester Red Wings in which the Sox won 3-2 in 33 innings when the game resumed on June 23, 1981. Shonda Schilling is running in today's Boston Marathon. Will she finish before her husband Curt Schilling? Schilling has the mound in today's 11:05 AM game against the Toronto Blue Jays?

Your Moment of Zen: The Red Sox have faced pitchers named Adams, Kennedy, Johnson, and Bush in the past season and this season.

Bradley University alumnus Charley Steiner is now out in Los Angeles working for the Los Angeles Dodgers and KFWB. He was with the New York Yankees.

I don't even know where to began. It's copy-proof.
