How long has this been going on

Lazy linkfest for a lazy day. If you missed it, Jon Stewart told Fox News To “Go F*ck Yourselves.” One of his better segments, shorter than usual.

Love these "daddy's home!" photos for some reason. Never get tired of this family. [source]


Haven't watched this yet, but Jake Tapper was pretty excited about his appearance on Colbert. He called it one more thing off his bucket list. Me, I'm still waiting to get that ride on the Goodyear blimp.

I really liked this defense of PressSec Robert Gibbs done by one of the gaggle. I admit I've come to have more sympathy for the WH press corps since I've started interacting with them on twitter, but they can be so annoying when they whine about access and not being treated with the proper deference. Nice to see some empathy for the PressSec's side from someone in that crowd.

Of course you know the ash from the unpronounceable volcano in Iceland is wreaking havoc all over Europe. Since the US media was preoccupied with Tiger Woods when it erupted, you may not have seen any photos of the eruption. This is a good photo gallery of it and the ash did create some incredible sunsets in England. And this just in, the best shot of the eruption yet, via Stromboli.org.

Did you see the footage from this stunning fireball in the sky that was caused by small meteor burning up in our atmosphere? Must have been awesome and a little scary to have been there when it happened.

These were a little scary too, but also awesome. Vintage japanese posters from the 1930s.

Roger Ebert continues to amuse me with his finds like this gallery, "This week in WTF?"

Little City webcam.

And my pretend boyfriend Mark Knoller is really a great photographer. Love this from the President's day at NASA. An eagle tends to some chicks on top of a sign at the press parking area.
