If elected, Senator John McCain (a four-time cancer survivor and, in case you hadn’t heard, a POW who survived extensive torture and lack of care for broken bones following crash in ‘Nam that still prevent him from raising his arms normally) would be the. Oldest. President. Ever. He makes the Founding Fathers look young. The average White Male American lives to 73.6 years old, and McCain (72 already) is anything but average—he may have a soft life these days, what with however many (seven) houses and a private jet, but with the torture, stress of political life, and four cancers the odds are he’d live through 1.6 years of a McCain Presidency means one thing: think seriously about Sarah Palin. President Sarah Palin. You like? She’s young, would be our first female president, she’s charming Read the rest »

I’m a Coloradoan. But half my family, my daddy’s side, is from NYC. I lived in Vermont and Boston for 13 years, and made a habit of visiting my uber New Yorker Uncle Jeff just as often as I could. He lived in Chelsea—not the one you see in Sex & the City episodes, all glam and fabulous—but a cramped, handsome yet dingy and fairly ordinary tree-lined street. He’d lived in NYC forever—he was the best guide ever, taking me to White Horse Tavern and John’s Pizzeria and gajillions of other spots he loved. Broadway, Empire State Building, Public Library, the Met…

On my visits these days, as a Buddhist eco boy, I’ve fallen for a few very different sort of spots:

From the funny-sad-true department, this video chronicles the rise and fall of an American Maverick, the Rebel, the Wild One, the underachieving plane-crashing (five times over) POW. The part about decorating houses is true, as is the ‘hotter, richer wife,’ the ethics scandal of the 90s. Video: Read the rest »

Apparently Ford, inventors of the Think electric car (who then promptly sold it to a Norwegian company that is now preparing to import that same car to U.S.), have decided not to sell the 65-mpg Fiesta ECOnetic diesel car here in the United States, claiming that Americans just won’t buy a diesel car.

“Perspicacious.” “No no no no no. No no no no no no!” “Bloviated.”

The Man wants simple answers (hell yes!) to complex questions (has the surge worked?). At least Monsieur O’Reilly, a fellow BU Com alumnus, gives us a chance to see how our prospective Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces holds up under pressure:

“We have come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy.”

Not that I have…but if one were to search ‘naked yoga‘ on google, you might get 570,000 results. That’s alright, bring lust to the path and see it burn into wisdom, y’all. Whatever gets you to the studio! Still, I can’t help but think that it sounds better than it would be in actuality (I guess it depends who’s doing downdog in front of you): Read the rest »

We know Palin is against a woman’s right-to-choose a safe, legal abortion. We know she’s gone of record, vuluntarily, calling human-provoked global warming questionable. But lest we think Palin will really provide a last crack in that highest of glass ceilings, Read the rest »

This has gotta be funniest video of the saddest week: with 58 days to go, it’s a virtual tie between McCain/Palin and Obama/Biden. Stephen Colbert delivers a punch of truth wrapped in a fuzzy ball of hilarity. Video:
