Despite accusations, Kerry’s position on Iraq has been consistent

“[B]eneath the torrent of campaign verbiage, Kerry’s position on Iraq for the past two years has been consistent and defensible – just difficult to sell in a sound-bite world.”

I hate the sound-bite world.

Cynthia Nixon is dating a woman.

I don’t see why this is a front-page story (wait, what am I talking about? it’s the Daily News), but, good on her. I’ve long had a non-sexual crush on her, and I’ve long wondered if she was on our team. In fact, I wonder if she was with her girlfriend when Matt and I saw her a few months ago.

It arrived yesterday.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh. It’s so nice to have those old friends around again. I’d missed them.

I’ve got a question, though: why is this stuff so damn expensive? The DVD is an hour and 10 minutes long and it costs more than, say, an entire season of “Buffy.” It’s not like there are any special effects, either. (Although one guy has such amazing control of his gag reflex that it makes me wonder.)

Seriously, anyone know why this stuff costs so much?
