This will be a quick one.

Official time of breaking the fast: 8:45ish this morning.

Lewis Black speaks with the Chicago Sun-Times. I'm turning this over to Chris Berman for the highlights. GOING...GOING...GONE!

Q. What are some of your most pronounced neuroses?
A. I play golf. I consider that to be a major neurotic tendency. I think it was designed for people who don't really feel like they hate themselves enough in their daily lives and have picked a recreational activity that allows them to hate themselves even more. It's a game for obsessive-compulsives.

Q. You've been following the Michael Jackson trial. What should his sentence be if he gets convicted?
A. I think his sentence should be that he's put in a cage just above Disney World, where he has to sit. And kids can throw food at it.

Q. Speaking of kids, you have a growing fan base of youngsters.
A. Yeah, but I'm not fondling 'em.

Impressive. Most impressive from the angriest man in America.

Watch for information about the special election. Looks like it's up to Bob Taft.

Something was heated up during the Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Series:
* Red Sox manager Terry Francona: Three-game suspension; fined
* Red Sox outfielder Trot Nixon: Two games; fined
* Red Sox DH David Ortiz: Fined
* Red Sox pitcher Bronson Arroyo: Six games; fined
* Devil Rays manager Lou Piniella: Three games; fined
* Devil Rays pitcher Dewon Brazelton: Five games; fined
* Devil Rays pitcher Lance Carter: Five games; fined
* Devil Rays outfielder Chris Singleton: Fined

That's bad. Real bad. Not Michael Jackson bad but you get the picture.

The New England Patriots signed quarterback Doug Flutie to a contract. Evidently, they were impressed with his performance of catching a few foul balls at Fenway.

Friday marked history. It was the first time since managers Joe McCarthy and Connie Mack faced off that two managers with over 2,000 wins coached against each other.

Contact Dick Clark Productions and have them shop the American Dreams to the WB. It's time now for the fans to speak up.

Must have Daily Show connections. Wiltfong is the only connection I have.

Evan Bayh is considering it, Birch says. I sure hope so.

The younger Bayh has received considerable mention as a possible Democratic presidential hopeful in 2008, but his father’s words Friday appeared to be the strongest indication that a White House run may be planned.

"I think he’s giving that serious consideration," Birch Bayh told about 200 people at Ivy Tech State College’s second annual O’Bannon Institute for Community Service.

The elder Bayh, who served as senator from Indiana from 1963 to 1981, sought the Democratic nomination himself in 1976, but lost to Jimmy Carter.

Bayh that his son is more serious and more conservative than he was.

"I thought I could speak to the young people who were concerned about Vietnam and the hard hats who were concerned about making a living," he said.

The former senator was the featured speaker for the two day conference on student activism and leadership named for late Gov. Frank O’Bannon.

Bayh encouraged students and young people to put their abilities to use in politics and civic life.

"I think young people want to believe they can make a difference," he said. "G-d help us if a generation of young people come along that don’t think they can make a difference."

Evan can do it. I have faith in him.

Colin Quinn will headline the 6th Annual Comedy Gala. Go if you can.

Lewis Black is in the hot seat. I've got a bad feeling of deja vu. Do you? You've got questions? He's got answers:

Q: It's hard to play comedy clubs and not drink, I bet.
A: It's hard to do anything these days and not drink, isn't it?

Q: Who's your favorite pundit?
A: The one I really like, who should be on TV more, is Maureen Dowd. I like her because she's somebody I read and go, "Wow, that's actually an amazing way to look at that." As opposed to, "Wow what a pr--k."

Rob Corddry is a bald liar. Who is a hairy liar? 'Nuff said.

"To tell you the truth, the war's been very good to us, the election's been very good to us. Hopefully, we'll invade Iran and North Korea, so I can buy a house."

Rob, don't get that ambitious now.

Nixon and Arroyo are appealing their suspensions.

Tom Brady considering politics. Is that why Doug Flutie was signed? I need a nap. Must keep typing...

"Whatever I've chosen to do in my athletic career and hopefully in my post-athletic career, I'm going to want to inspire people to do more, to encourage them to be better people, to be better Americans, to be better representatives of this great country," he said.

He hasn't publicly discussed his political leanings but was a guest of President Bush and Laura Bush during the 2004 State of the Union speech. Other athletes and entertainers at Saturday's dinner included quarterback Donovan McNabb of the Philadelphia Eagles, Goldie Hawn, LL Cool J, Richard Gere and Jane Fonda.

You can soon email John Ashcroft.

The former Republican lawmaker, who resigned as U.S. attorney general last November, is forming a consulting firm, the Ashcroft Group, with one of his long-time political aides, David Ayres.

The pair have also hired another former Ashcroft aide, Juleanna Glover Weiss, to join them in the venture, which they expect to have up and running this month.

Joe Piscopo running? He's a comedian.

Yesterday, the campaign manager of former wrestler Jesse Ventura's successful Minnesota gubernatorial campaign, Doug Friedline, mingled with the crowd that stood outside the museum for a short question-and-answer session.

Now working with former Saturday Night Live comedian Joe Piscopo on a possible gubernatorial bid, Friedline is in the film as Musikant's campaign manager.

Not cool. Natan Sharansky resigned.

Cabinet minister Natan Sharansky, cited as an inspiration by President Bush for promoting democracy, resigned Monday to protest the planned Gaza withdrawal, which he called a "tragic mistake" that will encourage Palestinian violence and deepen the rift in Israeli society.

It is a mistake. It's our bloody land.

Ha ha. I stopped watching CNN after they let Tucker go.

It's no secret that CNN has taken the backhand from bloggers in the past. When The Daily Show host Jon Stewart appeared on CNN's Crossfire, only to embarrass the show's presenters, bloggers everywhere hosted clips from the show.

Mazel Tov toio graduating seniors. You make me feel old.
