If you ever wanted to run for office but wasn’t sure how to do it, former Westchester County District Attorney Jeanine Pirro is coming out with a new book that will help political hopefuls.

It’s not exactly the best way to cap a great season, considering that your team was probably one of the best teams overall throughout the year. But when it comes down to it, nobody will look at what happened in April, May, June, July, August, or September. They’re only going to look at one thing: Your team’s final record.

And if you’re the New York Mets, that must piss you off.

Since Dave has been covering the politics beat at TDE for the past few months, I’ve been pretty comfortable keeping my ignorant trap shut. Shut my pie hole. Zipped my lips. Kept it all bottled up inside.

Unfortunately, something happened in the last 48 hours that has me so completely baffled that I can only turn to you, oh members of the TDE community, for help in explaining it to me.

So, for once, I am posting something about the President of the United States of America that is not critical. It is not exactly positive, either. It is an expression of bewilderment; a cry for help; a last desperate attempt at understanding how politics work before sliding forever into apathy and cynicism.

I’m so pissed. Yesterday I went and bought socks for the Lil’ Baby Moo. We went to Target, walked the place, and found the Halloween section.

You have to love the selection they have for kids. There was a bee, which I thought looked kind of cute on him, but he detested. There was a puppy, he didn’t seem keen on the idea. The pony was cool, except he would be “riding” it, and that would mean he’d be walking - sorry, not happening.

There were dozens of costumes for adults, young boys and girls, but six for toddlers. SIX. Are you kidding me? It was a joke, and I wasn’t laughing.

A year and a half ago or so I dated this guy Ghost. Probably one of the first people I had a genuine non-rebound connection to after this really long hellish relationship I was in.

We talked and drank coffee for hours and whatever else. He sat there and was all, “I think I could sleep (sleep sleep not sex sleep) with you and are you capable of a relationship” and all this and that which puts a person under an impression that there is something. I would have been cool if there wasn’t because I was a total flopping mess at the time- I just appreciate honesty.

One night after a lot of drinking with my roommate, we went for cheeseburgers, when that “last shot” got me. I was too sick to eat the cheeseburger and got in a cab. In the cab I called Ghost to let him know we weren’t going to be there and proceeded to say the following: “I LOOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU SOOOOOO MUUUUUCH Come over. NOW. ”

So I’ve noticed that this site, which went from being a cesspool of intellectual conversation and debate…. to being a meager message board at best.
