Thin crusts baked at temp for tarts = explody pies.

They were rough-edged, so they weren't going to look good anyway, but now I couldn't even give them away.

. . . Anyone want an ugly pie?

Robert Novak hits pedestrian in his black Corvette, then flees scene -- And he's fined $50?! Do we know if he was intoxicated? Does he have a medical problem that would contribute to "not noticing" a struck pedestrian? (I hit a dog once and knew right away--you tend to notice these things.)

Would anyone else in this situation get a fine for fifty bucks and be told to be on one's way?

I watched Countdown last night. Olbermann had Chuck Todd on, discussing current polling numbers. (Mr. Todd has become kind of a celebrity on MSNBC, with his election math wizardry.) At the tail end of a question about whether Obama is being perceived as 'safe' or 'risky', Todd went into a strange ramble about how race might be involved in the responses, even though race was not mentioned in the question. Olbermann made his "mmm," a low-pitched gutteral.

On Hardball, the very next news show, he was discussing the same polling data with Chris Matthews, going into the same racialized analysis, when he said that people want to know "if he's one of us."

It's been almost seven hours since I heard that, and I still don't believe it.

The transcripts should be up later today; I will update as info permits.

Edit: For some reason, Hardball transcripts (which are not easy to find on MSNBC's website--not very well designed for searching) are not uploaded for two days after the broadcast. I should find some context and pertinent quote today (Friday).
