Wimbledon is broadcast live in the mornings as I learned this very morning, drinking coffee and waiting for my back to loosen up. Serena Williams was playing Bethanie Mattek in the quarterfinals, and I was sucked in immediately for two reasons:
First, I was fascinated by the people around the court. There was a woman behind Mattek [...]
I’m sorry, but I gotta do it. Gotta talk politics for a moment. Otherwise I’ll just keep mumbling to myself like some dude pushing a baby carriage full of stuffed monkeys down the street wearing pants with a big ol’ pee stain in them.

Tonight I’m officially announcing my candidacy for local office. Office of commissioner. Commissioner on the board of this special district. Yes, I recognize it’s not [...]
