More Early Voting

Early voting is now completely out of control. The line stretches around the front of the building as you can see below and then curves around into the parking lot on the side of the building which you can see in the following pictures. Craziness. The wait is at least two hours.

More Palin Nonsense

I really don't know how she can step in front of people and lie like this. It's shocking.

Thanks again to the valuable Talking Points Memo for the link. Talking Points Memo: It's the Drudge Report with Facts and Real Reporters.

NFL Website

Walt, who is a member of this sports website, told me recently that, the National Football League's website, NFL.com, has really improved. I checked it out today and he ain't kidding. There are oodles and oodles of current highlight videos and some of the more important historical players have video alongside their career stats. For example here is a big hit from Ray Lewis in week 3 of the season and here you can see Charlie Sanders' statistics and a short video appreciation.

Another Batgirl

This is the Silver Age Batgirl. I love the purse. The purse may seem sexist but inside that purse she has important crime fighting tools like bat lipstick and bat tampons.

London in 1904

The video below is amazing. The street scenes with the trains and horse-pulled streetcars are stunning. What surprises me is that most film footage I have scene that is this old is choppy because of a low frame rate. This is smooth and clear. I'm in awe.


I found this on Metafilter. You can read more about the film here.
This kid does a better job, really

This is one of the funniest things I have seen this week.

Earlier today he linked to a story about a girl injured in a politically motivated attack. Now he's trying to cover his ass. Nice try, Drudge, but it was obvious from the start it was fake and you treated it like a real story. What a hack.
