desperate acts of online retailing (or maybe I'm just padding LoC's post count)

Dear Amazon.com Customer,

We've noticed that customers who have purchased or rated Bill James Handbook 2009 (Bill James Handbook) have also purchased Don Cherry's Hard Hitting Hockey on DVD. For this reason, you might like to know that Don Cherry's Hard Hitting Hockey will be released on December 2, 2008.


Yes, the experience of sitting down with a Bill James book just isn't complete without a Don Cherry DVD to pop into the tele.

Hillary: "Stop me before I bullshit again"

Clinton Desperate to Count Votes, Compares Fla. Primary to Zimbabwe

SUNRISE, FLA.
-- Desperate to get attention for her cause to seat Florida and Michigan delegates, Hillary Clinton compared the plight of Zimbabweans in their recent fraudulent election to the uncounted votes of Michigan and Florida voters saying it is wrong when “people go through the motions of an election only to have them discarded and disregarded.”

“We’re seeing that right now in Zimbabwe," Clinton explained. "Tragically, an election was held, the president lost, they refused to abide by the will of the people,” Clinton told the crowd of senior citizens at a retirement community in south Florida.

Train Wreck...

One of the kids should be counting pedals from a flower in her sleep...

The only thing I don't like about this little mash-up is they leave out the final image of Hillary used in the original ad - the one with the humorously fashionable glasses, the practiced look of quiet intensity and the well placed jewelery at three in the morning.
