who I am
I'm MaryAnn Johanson: writer and ponderer in New York City who drinks too much wine and thinks way too much about such inconsequences as movies, TV, books, and the meaning of life.

Santa?!? I know him!
Seriously, though, can you describe your state of mind when Santa talks to you? Are you on any prescription medication or have you used any illegal drugs lately? Any recent head trauma?

Firewire-side?
Firefox-side? I think I like Firefox-side.

No, can't be Firefox-side. The administration has to be open to all. :)

Interesting.
In many ways, the euphoria over Obama's election reminds me of the jubilation the UK felt when Tony Blair came to power.
Now I firmly believe Mr Blair did a lot of good and I still admire him but sadly he did not live up to the expectations placed upon him. I can see Obama facing the same disappointment.

He can achieve maybe 2 percent of the things he promises and he'll still have more respect than any president I can actually remember.

He's got a signed basketball in the corner there. I kinda wonder who signed it.

No idea, but two possibles:
* He recently had a visit from the OSU Beavers.
* LeBron James gave him an autographed ball backstage on Letterman.
