I Couldn’t Pick It Up

Al Gore’s book has been out for ten days, and it’s listed as #1131 at Amazon.

Given all the free publicity he’s gotten lately from his media chums, I’d say that’s a pretty big flop.

There are, as of this posting, no customer reviews. Somehow, I don’t think the public is that interested in these people any more.

I hope that Hillary’s book does as bad, or worse, and that the publisher loses a bundle.

[Update in the afternoon]

I think I’ve discovered the problem. They were Florida book purchasers, who meant to buy Gore’s book, but bought this one instead.

[Another update a little after 5 PM PST]

I don’t have a link for this other than this one, so it’s kind of second barstool down, but not incredible. Someone at Free Republic is reporting that a radio host is saying that Al and Tipper are lonely at a book signing.

Getting Back To Normal

A year ago I observed that it was the anniversary of the JFK assassination, and for the first time in my memory, few people noticed.

I woke up this morning to a piece on NPR about it. I guess things are calming down from the shock of last fall’s events. Camelot lives on…

On the other hand, considering the Skakel conviction, and the election disaster of Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, some cracks do seem to be appearing in the Kennedy mystique and facade. They don’t seem as dominant a force as they used to.

And as Martha would say (well, actually given that I understand she’s a die-hard Democrat, maybe she wouldn’t say it…), that’s a good thing.

Well, I Feel Safer Now

A woman in Texas is going to be prosecuted for possession of too many marital aids.

I guess if you have more than six pleasuring devices, you’re a “dealer.” Apparently, she had “parties” where she would introduce women to the products, and get them “hooked,” leading them ultimately to a life of dissolution and despair, living only for their vibrator “fix.”

She could get up to two years.

Police stopped Grubbs’ truck after seeing her driving erratically, an arrest report said.

I think they meant, “driving erotically….”

Glad they have still have time to get dangerous criminals like this off the street, even while we’re being targeted by homicidal nutballs from the rest of the world.
