Rock Massacres, Vol. 6: Paul McCartney



There have been many rumors over the years about Paul McCartney being dead. There is recent evidence that contradicts the popular belief that Paul was killed in late 1966 in a car crash. Judging by this rare footage from early 1967, Paul was being interviewed by the BBC, talking rather incoherently, when tragedy struck. Take a look at the footage and judge for yourself.

Barack Obama Voted President-Elect



Well, I gotta say, this is even more of a shock than the Phillies winning the World Series, only because there are so many more ways to lose an election than a baseball game. This really fell into the "I'll believe it when I see it" category.

I just want to thank all of you out there for getting out and voting. I haven't felt this great about the future in a long time. Both McCain's concession speech and Obama's acceptance speech were delivered with the kind of grace and mutual respect that has been missing in American politics for far too long.

Thanks for being patient with my political rants of the past two months. I promise not to write about politics again, at least not for a month or two. From here on, it will mostly be the trivial nonsense you've become accustomed to when reading this blog. I promise.
