politics: Signs and Portents
Apparently Miss Cleo moonlights as a photographer for Life magazine!
From the Poynter Forums, Bill Shapiro, former managing editor of Life writes:
When we shot this photo for the third cover of LIFE (the newspaper
supplement version) back in September of 2004, we never dreamed we’d actually see it play out… or even anything this close.As the election neared and it was becoming clear that every vote would
matter, we decided to ask a wide range of famous Americans why there were stepping up to the ballot box.
Eventually the Fey/Palin joke will wear itself out, but not today! 
Hey I don’t know if you’re down (and if not, it’s totally dope) but a couple of bloggy friends and I are going to karaoke on Friday in Adams Morgan. Plus we’re looking into going to Miss Adams Morgan Pageant in October. 🙂
“down” and “dope”. Really? Do I live in a vacuum? The last person I heard talk like this was a socially retarded suburban white kid trying to act “urban.” What a riot!
@pyack: Shut up.
If all you could see were the words and not comprehend that someone was trying to be nice and extend an invitation out to have fun then really… just shush. 😛
down, dope, karaoke, Miss Adams Morgan. OY VEY. This is Beckystan.
@pyack: Beckystan? Now you just sound like Kyle.
I’m pretty sure there’s still a fair amount of ‘mos heading out for karaoke, and I know that the Miss A.M. pageant is still high on the ‘Mo Society list of places to see and be seen.
