OK I am back from my 1 week vacation. What did I miss?
Anything interesting happen? I have been pretty much out of touch with politics for the past week. Anything interesting happen at the lounge?

4. McCombover got pwned by Paris Hilton. That's right. Paris Hilton.
Seems McCombover made this really, really dumb ad comparing Obama to Paris, Britney, etc., etc. And Paris Hilton (!) threw it back in his face.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=3741574&mesg_id=3741574

To recap: Paris Freakin' Hilton just made McCombover look like a fool. And 40% of the people want him to be pResident?! :eyes:

8. Well if you are a major Giants fan the answer would be yes
Went to the Albany where the Giants have their training camp. Met up with many of my friends from the Giants message board. Had a BBQ with the group and was able to get the Giants writer from Newsweek to come and speak to us about the Giants. I even had a brief conversation with the owner of the team (well it was me telling him about the fans being unhappy about the accommodations and him telling me I had a good point.

Here are some pictures of the BBQ

Here is me listening to Ralph Vacchiano (the beat writer). I am the guy on the right who needs a shave.

7. Paris Hilton is running for president
and running a not-too-bad campaign.

I'd vote for her over McCain.

In the lounge? Midlo disavowed consumption of boxed wine. The lounge was shocked.

:hi:
