    Detroit during Labor Day is like being in Jerusalem during Passover

    From the Silver Jews Show. That quote would have sufficed were it not for the fact that I went across the street afterwards and caught Neil Hamburger. Tasteless tasteless jokes, true. The string of Heath Ledger jokes were hilarious... of course, I got tired of the hype surrounding his death and his performance in Batman. Worth checking out? You betcha. Which is a bad segue into politics. However, the pictures of Obama speaking in STL are amazing. To see up to 100,000 people standing in front of the old state courthouse, the same courthouse where the Dred Scott case was first argued is an amazing portrait. To me it shows how far our country has moved. There's still work to be done, but I don't know that I ever thought I'd see a situation like this. Fingers crossed.
