"We've got a situation with 10,000 baby boomers a day signing up for Social Security, going into the Medicare system. And I just want to remind everybody when all the old hippies find out that they get free drugs, just wait until what that's going to cost out there."--Mike Huckabee, presidential candidate

"If Cornell West was making an album called Nigger, they would know he's got something intellectual to say. To think I'm gonna say something that's not intellectual is calling me a nigger, and to be called a nigger by Jesse Jackson and the NAACP is counterproductive, counter-revolutionary."--Nas, discussing the title of his new album

One-sentence reviews of Xbox Live Arcade games:

Sonic the Hedgehog 2: A faithful and accurate version of a decent-in-its-day but very dated game that's widely available both dirt cheap and free.

Street Trace: NYC: A hoverboard-based combat game, featuring hip X-treme characters and set in a post-apocalyptic New York City.

Track and Field: The Konami arcade one, not the NES one, this will put Mario Party-level stresses on your forty dollar controllers.

Yaris: I've owned a few, so believe me when I say that this game isn't nearly as much fun as a cheap Toyota.

Yi Are Kung Fu: A fighting game from before the invention of dragon punches, multiple-hit combos and the third dimension.

You know what teevee show did some really great Halloween episodes? Besides The Simpsons? Roseanne. But maybe buying nine Roseanne box sets is a little more than you'd like to commit. Whatever, I'm not here to judge. But, in that case, you may be interested in this Roseanne-Halloween-episode DVD.
