AND WE'RE BACK! Sorry for the absence, but the staff here at the site was busy in New York covering the Republican Convention. You may have seen our Editorial Intern, Mallory, who was one of several women hauled out of the convention by security during Bush's speech.

Okay, not really. But wouldn't it have been awesome if that were true? I mean, not that disrupting conventions is cool. It's not. I don't care if all your friends are doing it. As it was, Republicans had their hands full making sure Michael Moore didn't try anything funny.

And speaking of trying anything funny, what was up with the Bush twins? Did the speechwriter forget that these two have graduated from college? They couldn't muster up something intelligent for them to say about the Republican Party? It seems like they could have been the perfect people to speak to the younger generation of voters about the importance of being involved in politics. Instead, they were doing lines like: "Who is this man they call Dick Cheney?" Ha ha. Get it? Two college graduates don't know who the Vice President is. Funny stuff.

I (HEART) PURCHASES: I've been a little stressed out this week, but I've figured out a surefire way to combat it: Mindless Consumerism. I went to Fry's last night to buy something. Anything. Didn't matter. I wound up with a new phone/answering machine (that muffled sound you hear is the collective "huzzah!" from everyone who has ever tried to leave me a message) and the Freaks and Geeks DVDs. Haven't used the phone yet, but the DVDs were a GREAT purchase. I never saw the show when it aired (I know, I blame myself) so it's like getting a fresh dose of Undeclared. This has also got me thinking that Seth Rogan should have his own show. And Linda Cardellini might get me to watch ER. Might.

IN OTHER BLOGS: Rocker Tommy Lee will not be attending DePauw University for a new NBC reality show. I'd write more but John and T-Ball have it covered.

ANNOUNCEMENT: I think I'm done with this blog. I've had it. It's a lot of coding... it takes a lot of time... kidding! But really, what if we just move the whole shebang to Blogger? I've been secretly mirroring this thing on a new, slicked up blog at kenneymarlatt.com/blog for about a month. Check it out. Kick the tires. Look in the attic. Tell me what you think. If nothing else, it should load faster. Maybe we'll move over there permanently in another month or so. Humm... I guess I shouldn't have mirrored this part. Seems kinda out of place. Oh well.
