Particularly appropriate...


From The Times (UK):
"Furore in the BBC TV newsrooms, as George Bush’s Chief of Staff Andy Card resigned yesterday. “Who the hell is he?” one journalist cried. “Like Leo from The West Wing,” said another. “Got it,” said the first."

Irish Boy

Well I had a drink with a friend of mine a week ago today.
We were celebrating a month and a half too late St. Paddy's Day.
Well I bought 'im a round and he bought me a round,
and the bouncer bought us anudder.....

What's an Irish boy from a good family doing in the gutter?

Well we looked at each other and had to laugh as we lay there in our stink.
Well I woulda cried if I woulda thought, but every time I thought I'd drink.
And if his poor old gray-haired ma'd
seen us there she woulda shuddered.....

What's an Irish boy from a good family doing in the gutter?

Well my Irish friend he liked to surf but me I couldn't swim.
Well he said that he could teach me how, and I said I trusted him.
He swore he'd never let me drown,
he loved me like a brudder....

What's an Irish boy from a good family doing in the gutter?

Well sure enough I drowned and I wound up at the pearly gates,
where St. Peter said, "You're drunk as hell! Son you shoulda ate!"
So he sent me back down to get a bite,
but instead I bought anudder.....

Mission New Orleans



Austin put together an amazing video of the work we did in New Orleans last week.
These pictures are worth more than my thousand words.

The Cold

Been away for a little while. VERY BUSY. Hope to post very soon about last week's trip to lend a hand to some relief efforts in New Orleans. In the meantime, the thing I am MOST IMMEDIATELY EXCITED ABOUT is tonight's West Wing, with the Josh, and the Donna, and the making out, and what have you. Click the play button and see for yourself.

Tonight begins the final six episodes of TWW. Those final six episodes will include appearances by Sam Seaborn, Ainsley Hayes, Amy Gardner, John Hoynes, and others. They will also feature the death of Leo McGarry (R.I.P. John Spencer). Home stretch. I'm pumped!
