I wish I was like you, easily amused

An iguana named Mozart is getting his penis amputated. Mozart has had an erection, which has been described as red and swollen, for over a week and to prevent infection it must be removed. No worries though, iguanas have two penises.

I use Dove soap in the shower because it leaves my skin silky smooth. But in the winter, even Dove cannot prevent my skin from drying out, all over. I don’t have time to lotion up my entire body after a shower. But I’ve found a new soap. Wait, it’s so good it’s not even soap. Its a beauty bar! complete with soap, hydrating lotion, and cucumber and green tea scents. What a beautiful thing. If this can’t keep my skin from drying out I don’t know what can.

Terry McAullife was on Hardball the other day. For those of you who don’t know, he is the predecessor of Howard Dean as the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee. His latest job is as Chairman of The Hillary Clinton for President Committee. He’s a brilliant political strategist and under his leadership the DNC raised more money than the RNC for the first time ever. On Hardball he proclaimed that the Democratic presidential field was strong while the Republicans were weak. I understand he’s trying to push the Dems up and the GOP down, but what a ridiculous statement. I’m no political pundit, but the Democratic field looks just as “weak” as the Republican field, if not weaker. Hillary, Barack, John Edwards, Tom Vilsack, Bill Richardson, Joe Biden, Dennis Kucinich, Chris Dodd. All of these candidates would lose to John McCain or Rudy Giuliani. Yes yes, I know all the polls have Barack and Hillary within the margin of both of them. But those polls are of registered voters, not likely voters. Likely voters, is a different story. They’re both behind by 9-10% in matchups with McCain and Giuliani. But forget about polls for a second. Hillary, regardless of her stances on issues, is unelectable. If she renounced being a Democrat and ran as a Republican, half of the Republicans still wouldn’t vote for her just because her name is Hillary Rodham Clinton. Barack is Black. If he had at least a full term in the Senate that might not matter as much. I love Barack, but America isn’t going to elect a 40 something Black man who they perceive to have little experience. Plus, his name is Barack Obama, not Michael Johnson. It’s stupid, but for some reason that matters to the American people. So, no Mr. McAuliffe, the Democratic field is not strong.
