Booooo
Reason booker was going to put me on Al-Jazeera for five minutes today to talk about immigration. After much anxiety and a small amount of whiskey, I was totally going to do it. But then I got bumped because of damn primary talk! And too late to go see Ron Paul in Virginia! Alas! But to sooth my soul I am pestering the Colorado Springs police department over medical marijuana raids. But...

Pittsburgh disperse, Pittsburgh, disperse Be thankful that it wasn’t any worse, any worse That night...

Booing John Bolton
It’s almost as rewarding as meeting like 25 tumblr libertarians and anarchists this weekend in DC. Beautiful.

The reason I’m hungover: Matt Welch debating Jonah Goldberg about the place of libertarianism within the larger political spectrum.  At about 51 minutes in, Matt gave me a nameless shout-out. I was accidentally behind a giant pillar, but I still turned red. Not as bad as Students for Liberty, though. But after this there was much boozing and it was good times.

Press credentials for CPAC!
1) Oh Gawd. 2) Yay I am a real media personality with OFFICIAL PRESS CREDENTIALS. I am going to go meet Deep Throat and then bring down Nixon, y’all! 3) I have to, at leas to some extent, take people like Rick Santorum seriously. Or I at least can’t throw things. 4) I hope there are protesters that I have to dramatically fight my way through. Sort of. 5) I assume this is the kind...

Phone
I miss my stupid, Occutard, anarchist best friend/cousin. He called me his “class warfare cousin” tonight. At least he has a phone again, which is why I am now awake at 1 am. Because he’s impossible to talk to for less than an hour and a half. California is so far away. I guess I don’t care if people move away from DC, because all my favorite people to be in...

Football is going on somewhere
I am cleaning my gross house and switching between “Gilmore Girls” and Ken Burns’ Civil War documentary. Also stopped rewatching “True Grit” because it was too awesome to not give my full attention. Need to finish rewatching “Papillon” soon as well, since I stopped it for that very reason. (The original 1969 “True Grit” I stopped watching...
