Well...it has been a while
Gogol is finally coming to Milwaukee next month at a great old venue. Turner Hall closed after a fire in the 40s and was closed until a few month ago. The place is a perfect place for Gogol. They redid the floors but they left the walls and ceiling the way they were since the fire. The walls are a art piece all by themselves.

Seriously -- I just don't get it. Did Atrios have a really good meal in a Rumanian restaurant at a formative age or something?

I think they actually prefer the term "Roma".
Gypsy is rather derogatory I guess.

adumbrations from the NYT:
Republicans will seek to portray Mr. Obama as out of touch with many voters on issues like abortion and gay rights. Some of Mr. McCain’s advisers said they also thought that Mr. Obama had displayed a number of vulnerabilities as a candidate that they would seek to exploit: they argued that he was prone to becoming irritated when tired or pressed on tough questions, that he had trouble connecting with voters in smaller settings and that he had run a campaign light on substance.
In the eyes of the Obama campaign, Mr. McCain’s chief weaknesses include continuing to embrace the Iraq war, his support for extending the administration’s tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans (he once opposed the idea) and his suggestion that the economy had made “great progress” in the last eight years.
Mr. Obama has said he has no intention of making age — Mr. McCain is 25 years older — an overt issue in the general election campaign. Yet in recent weeks, the Obama campaign has made a point of showing their candidate in settings, on the basketball court, as well as surrounded by his young family, that could be seen as telegraphing the message without explicitly raising the issue.

Allen's insightful critique of Camel Ultra Cigarettes is right up there with Balzac, Hemingway, and Steinbeck.
it's that good.
Federal tax law, as it relates to tax-exempt religious ministries, is pretty clear — houses of worship may not legally intervene in political campaigns, either in support of or opposition to a candidate or a party. Those who violate the law run the risk of losing their tax-exempt status. With some regularity, the IRS reminds houses of worship about this, warning them about the dangers of ignoring the law.
Oh, please do.
