I'm in the mood

For something light. The weather's got Shopgirlove in a flighty mood. Her recently purchased copy of George Eliot's Impressions of Theoprastus Such just won't do! It's altogether too too! She needs something less tasteful for her brow has been lowered.
Well, kindred spirits might enjoy reading about the following:

The looming sex scandal in D.C. (oooh, hookers! We will begin a pool of most likely to appear. My vote? Bill Clinton. Kidding...) A tasteless roundup of what the most recently executed ordered for their last meal. (Saddam Hussein went with the chicken. Shopgirlove is apalled by the lack of culinary imagination of these convicted killers. Really, is onion ring-breath a smart choice on the eve of meeting one's maker?) For those of us in Scooter Libby withdrawal, there is the coming trial of Conrad Black. Bonus, these folks also have a nice pit bull mascot and an interesting take on Yankee politics. Shopgirlove has also been enjoying the mediocrity over at passive-agressive extraordinaire, dooce. Thanks to Charlene for the introduction.
And now, my exit, stage left. (Humming "America, the Beautiful".)
