Actually, the title doesn't have anything to do with the post--I just needed something and happened to look out the window.
I've gotten into listening to podcasts quite a lot, which I've mentioned. One of the best things about it is that it allows me to fit my listening around my schedule. For example, I love to listen to "Wait Wait . . . Don't Tell Me." Last week's episode (not this week's--this week's is a 'best of' episode) was astoundingly funny.
One of my favorite parts was a recording of a phone call in which Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) called a reporter and apologized for "messing up [his] game." You may have already heard about it from articles like this. The show has the audio.
Of course, my regular reader will already be able to guess what I think of the reporter himself. He's the one who referred to a journalism intern as "this pretty young thing." It's highly offensive, and I don't feel at all bad about his "game" being 'messed up." Note to reporter: perhaps when you stop referring to women by diminutive, objectifying nicknames, you might just have better luck with "the ladies."
