Did you know that this is Blog Action Day?!

Blog Action Day, an annual nonprofit event that unites the world's bloggers, podcasters and videocasters to post about the same issue on the same day. This year's issue is poverty, and 11,000 bloggers around the world are posting on the topic.

So get busy!

If I had been born to Sarah Palin. . .

. . .my name would be Engine Nighthawk Palin.

How do I know this? I tried The Sarah Palin Baby Name Generator, of course! It's very scientific.

Thanks to Anne Lamott for that link. (Have I mentioned lately how much I am in love with Anne Lamott?)

Also, if you haven't seen it, watch the intro from the most recent episode of SNL.

Thanks to Rob for links to the Anne Lamott stuff and the SNL clip. What would I do without you to send me the most awesomest anti-conservative stuff on the internet?

Regardless of how you feel about Hillary Clinton or Sarah Palin,

this is an interesting article.

“And even though I am a feminist and even though I am religious, I secretly believe, in some mean little rat part of my brain, that I am my skin, my hair, and worst of all, those triangles of fat that pooch at the top of my thighs. In other words, that I am my packaging. Even though both feminism and Christianity have taught me that I am my spirit, my heart, all that I have survived over the years and all that I have given, still a funny thing happened after I started liking this guy: I looked in the mirror, and sighed, and thought to myself, I will cut my eyes out.” ~Anne Lamott, Traveling Mercies
