Jacob Dancing in Brooklyn
About a month ago Joy and I were over in the Windsor Terrace neighborhood of Brooklyn to try out a yummy new local hole in the wall called "DUB pies". For those passing through Brooklyn, I highly recommend the basic Steak Mince Pie or Shepherd's Pie. The Sausage Roll was good but a bit too greasy with a bit too dry a crust. Otherwise all is great. The place is quite near to Prospect Park (Southern end) so can stop off there before or after a nice day in the park.
Afterward consuming our wonderful New Zealand cuisine, we passed by a block party with an enthusiastic, if a bit mediocre, band. Jacob LOVED them and proceeded to dance like a madman: (video by Joy Romanski)
I can has cheezburger?
oh hai! I cants has enuf cheezburgers or lolcats, ok? ok bye-bye bbs. 
The Internet is rife with memes but publishing funny pictures of cats and lacing them with IMPACT-fonted headlines in lolspeak is probably one of most fundamentally viral pop narratives on the web.
This goes well beyond dancing gerbils, fetish sites about girls eating sandwiches or pseudo anime lolspeak.
LOLcats are da bomb!

Ain't Nothing Wrong With That
Oh my goodness. I haven't had a crush on a song like this in a while. I heard it for the first time this morning and have been playing it repeatedly on the iPod. (I bought the album--first listen says it fuckin' rocks.)
Enjoy some Friday dancing! (Or "air humping" as a friend of mine calls it)
A November to Remember!
The midterm elections are approaching fast and you have the opportunity to get more involved in making sure that progressives turnout and vote this November.
People For the American Way needs your help in contacting our members to make sure our progressive voices are heard at the ballot box.
Over the past six years, we have seen an abuse of presidential powers undermining our country’s system of checks and balances, an erosion of fundamental civil liberties, irresponsible tax and spending policies and a disastrous foreign policy. It is time for a change – let’s make this A November to Remember!
People For the American Way has organized a series of phone banking nights to make focused calls to our members in key districts where important ballot measures and candidate races are taking place and WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Our first phone bank will be on Wednesday, October 4 from 6:00-9:00 pm at the PFAW Northeast Regional Office at 149 5th Avenue, 7th Floor, in New York City. Phone banking will continue every Monday – Thursday until the election on November 7. Light snacks and refreshments will be served and volunteers will be briefed with inside information about the midterm election.
Progressive values are at stake this midterm election. We need you to help make our voices heard!
If you have free minutes to donate, please bring your cell phone!
WHAT: A November to Remember: A series of phone banks to PFAW members about important ballot measures and races in the November elections.
