Feh. Versus.
Messier looks like an alien.
*** Update 2-0 Red Wings. They look, um, better than the Pens.
Seems like they have constant pressure on us.

Hopkins to the Finals
Where they belong. Hopkins/Syracuse will actually be a fun game. Also, I see the lacrosse mullet is still alive and well in Div. 1 lax.
Now the Pens need to show up tonight.
*** Update ***
Via Ta-Nehisi Coates, this:
I jump like a turtle.
Turkeys Away
An afternoon open thread with a treat.
Dunkin Dumbass
Sigh. You all know I’ve been a fan of Dunkin Donuts for quite some time–and have touted their strong position in favor of immigration enforcement.
Charles Johnson notes, and many readers have e-mailed about, Dunkin Donuts’ spokeswoman Rachel Ray’s clueless sporting of a jihadi chic keffiyeh in a recent DD ad campaign. I’m hoping her hate couture choice was spurred more by ignorance than ideology.
Is Ray’s blunder worth boycotting DD over?
You go for it, Michelle! I say you fire up a national boycott of Dunkin Donuts based around the organizing principle that… a celebrity wore a scarf in a commercial.
THIS. IS. WHY. THE. MCCAIN. CAMP. IS. IGNORING. YOU.

Insomnia Open Thread
It’s 4:11am. I can’t sleep. I lost over $8,000 in my 401k this week. Enjoy my misery.
By the way: I don’t get this……….
Later at an event in Brandon, South Dakota, she said, “Earlier today, I was discussing the Democratic primary history and in the course of that discussion mentioned the campaigns that both my husband and Sen. Kennedy waged in California in June in 1992 and 1968, and I was referencing those to make the point that we have had nominating primary contests that go into June. That’s an historic fact.”
Is she on crack? Does this make any sense to anyone? WTF is Clinton on about?? Am I missing something due to insomnia??? I mean, WTF? I don’t understand the reference. Not a bit. Well, yes. There is a nominating contest – one she’s lost. But other than that, what the hell is up with the Bobby Kennedy reference? It makes no sense, to me at least??
Update: Michae D. + god knows how many. And Helvetica sucks, John.
But I Can Still Win If Someone Pops a Cap In His Ass- A Really Late Night Open Thread
I have to confess- I am celebrating Hillary’s implosion today. I went out earlier and had two glasses of wine, a spectacular grilled romaine salad with avocado and a raspberry vinagrette, and then a splendidly rare filet mignon in an oyster demi-glaze on a bed of asparagus. Because, you know, I am an elitist. And then I had a fat cigar.
A few months back I was defending her, and was ready to vote for her, even after years as a Republican. And then I watched her campaign and I realized once again how repellent she is.
Yeah, I really wish I could be more graceful about this, but since dinner, I have had a couple more drinks and I keep getting more ecstatic. In my defense, you know what you get when you come here, so deal with it. All praise the Giant Spaghetti Monster, please give us another pervert Republican this weekend and the week will be complete.
Again, I wish I could be more tactful, but after watching her lackeys and her supporters spend the last three months with no real route to the nomination sniping from the sidelines hoping for an Obama disaster to propel OUR LADY OF INEVITABILITY to the nomination, you can consider this a pretty damned good day for me.
But John, you say- she was just talking about the timeline. Whatever. Bye, Hillary.
As a personal aside, I found that the self-immolation of the most narcissistic campaign ever washes down really fucking well with a Pinot Noir. Fuck off and good riddance.
John +5 (for those of you who are new here and have no idea what it means, click the link)
PS- In pure Clintonian fashion, expect her to play the victim tomorrow. Why, she just made an innocuous statement about the election timeline and all these Obama supporters are trying to push the little woman out.
Fuck that nonsense. Buy some garlic and a wooden stake and tell her and her supporters to piss right off.
They Never Killed Zaphod Beeblebrox, Did They?
After a few glasses of wine Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters, it came to me. I hereby declare myself in the running to rule the universe.
Sure, I don’t have much else going for me and my chances for election are non-existent, but what if everyone else gets shot? I mean, surely campaigns have been sustained for dumber reasons.
Consider this an open thread.
