So much drama over who should be the D candidate... Hillary Barack Hillary Barack.

Shouldn't the real discusssion be HOW DARE ANY REPUBLICAN EVEN BE PERMITTED TO VOTE given the nightmarish hell our country has been plunged into?

Don't you wonder why there has been no cry from the rest of the world for a war crimes tribunal? Lord knows if any other country had done half of what the gang of four [bush/cheney/rumsfeld/rice] have done we would be screaming for a tribunal...

Naked. Chocolate.

Were two words ever better suited for the name of a retail shop? I think not.

If you haven't been there yet, get your ass over to Naked Chocolate at Juniper and Walnut - that's 13 1/2 Street for you visitors - and discover why USA Today called this place one of the top 10 chocolatiers in the country.

But please keep your clothes on... til you get home.

I know Chumley has ranted about this in the past (what hasn't he ranted about?!), but what is the deal with people who can't walk on the sidewalk?

I mean, really people - pick a destination, and just head for it.

There's no need to stand in other people's way... or drift from side to side, like your some massive ship at sea without a rudder. When standing chatting on the cell phone or with friends, simply move to the side - this allows the flow of traffic to continue for the rest of the city.

On behalf of those of us in a hurry, or carrying heavy parcels, or those of us with a modicum of equilibrium - get the HELL out of the way.

I'll keep this simple: Dine Out for Life.
