Yes, Denizens - I know it's Cafe Press. Yes, I know that they're a liberal-owned company. Yes, I'm aware that the quality of their garments may not be quite as good as ThoseShirts.com.
But unlike ThoseShirts.com, Cafe Press ACTUALLY ANSWERS THE EMAIL I SEND THEM!!!!
Got clue, ThoseShirts???
Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

The Dullest Moaning Snooze  is giving itself a pat on the back for winning a Pulitzer.
The Dallas Morning News today won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for editorial writing for its “relentless editorials deploring the stark social and economic disparity between the city’s better-off northern half and distressed southern half.”
Robert W. Mong Jr., editor of The News, hailed the project, now in its third year, as a towering example of sustained reporting on a subject.
“Very few newspaper projects go beyond one year,” Mong said. “This one will continue. It has been an extremely ambitious, substantive project that’s beginning to get a lot of results.”
Translation:  they’re trying to shame North Dallas into redistributing some of its money down south.
Given that:  1) that whole series was nothing more than a “waaaaaaaah!” piece about North Dallas was just a bunch of racist good ol’ boys, and how po’ ol’ Sout’ Dalla’ couldn’t buy a break (never mind that former-mayor-now-turned-convict Don Hill bought fuckin’ plenty  of breaks for himself South Dallas) and 2) the excuse-for-a-paper keeps hemorrhaging readership at a substantial rate, this just goes to show that Pulitzers are about as valuable nowadays as Nobel peace prizes.
Except they don’t pay as much.

Nutscrape,
if you so desire - but why in blazes would you want to use a browser from a company that had to hide behind Janet El Reño's skirt to be successful?
And don't even get me started on Opera or Chrome. I'm not about to trust any browser that won't let me change its color scheme.
Screw you, Pulitzer committee. I don’t give a flying fandango about economic disparity, unless the cause is THEFT. Like the disparities between various undemocratic heads of state and their subjects.
Or unless the cause is government policy. Six minutes into this video illustrates why Texas is faring better than California.
Also…THE EXISTENCE OF AFFLUENT FOLKS IS NOT NEWS!!!!! Unless they exist in Communist nations – which they do…
Well Alan if the confiscatory practices of the current mis-administration continue at their current unabated pace, it’s clear that CONgress and Al-Obambi obviously view THEFT as quid pro quo.
Umm Darth, before a certain Press Secretary corrects you….please refrain from the hate speech. It’s not “redistribution” it’s “social justice” and “leveling the playing field for all in the name of good”.
{***cough cough GAG BBBBBBBARRRRRRRRFFFFFFFFF***} WTF just came off of my fingers???? Obviously Andy Stern must have temporarily taken over as his sorry arse is being shipped back to the industrial back alleys of Chicago. Darth, please do continue calling a spade a spade. Colorful metaphors MUST be included as well.
