    Yuck. Even when scaled down 18 notches, he's still unlikeable.

    My boyfriend's mother gave me his dumb ol' holiday book last year, The Christmas Sweater. I can't tell you why. I tried to read it, really, really tried hard, but the writing is just not good. Especially when said writing is detailing the childhood of Glenn Beck.

    I started to play this, then decided I was better off not watching. I'm happy with that decision.

    i'm pretty sure (okay, I hope to God) the daughter has her own book to write one day that will be a huge bestseller.

    potential title:

    "Having Dad Committed: Growing up as the kid of the biggest psycho in radio, and what I did about it."

    Oh my god. I love you guys.


    The other day I tried joking around about hipsters on Jezebel, and was met with a brutal PC attack from what was apparently the hipster rights movement, lecturing me on how I was such a horrible person for being so judgemental against them. All I had said was that they are apathetic. It was the most bizarre thing I've ever experienced.

    Hey Chris Lehmann: at SXSW the dirty hippies can take a bath in Barton Springs. Well, actually, that happens any day around here. Not just during SXSW.

    Owen, thanks for even more tips on places to avoid in SF.


    (Although I have to say that the Lower Haight has been avoidable in its own right for some time now).


    And according to the SF Examiner, out Mayor now keeps his followers up to date via Twitter. The Exam says he's made a "big splash recently". What that means in Twitter terms, I can't say.

    @propertius: When Owen first moved to SF, he lived in the Lower Haight. Then he moved to North Beach, where he blogs from today.

    There is that whole "men in heels" ick factor involved with cowboy boots. I'll stick with topsiders, thanks very much.

    @Killer Squid: yes, they're heels, but they have a purpose: to hook into the stirrups. And pretty much every kid in Texas winds up riding a horse at some point.

    I grew up in Dallas and lived in Austin much of my life. People who wear cowboy boots outside of remote places in West and South Texas, places where horses are involved, are easily identified by natives as "people from not around here."
