Unless you're in a cave, all the news is about the Supreme Court confirmation hearings currently ongoing in the Senate Judiciary Committee for Judge Alito.
Man, it's great to see Senators posturing that they really understand the law and proposed judiciary candidates express opinions, if pressed relentlessly, that yes, they do prefer some movies more than others. It's all a big Us v. Them. Unfortunately, it's never that simple.
But I like to play a little game. Anytime anyone mentions the term "Alito" you have to break out into "Whoa-oh-oh-oh. He's for the money, he's for the show. Lido's a-waitin' for another go." Yup, that's supposed to be Boz Skaggs' "Lido Shuffle."
It's the only way I've found to get people to shut up about this.

Today I accidentally turned on NPR and heard what I thought was an old JFK speech.
It was ol' Ted pontificating at these hearings.
The way things are going, it's too bad McDonald's didn't do a cross promotion when the movie Vera Drake came out. You could get your own do-it-yourself abortion kit for only $3.95 with the purchase of an extra value meal.
I wish your posts came with sound. I'd love to hear you sing your version of "Lido Shuffle."
It's amazing how many people don't know how to pronounce "Lido."
