Thursday Randomness

•Fat man with the parking tag driving a Prius, I have the right away crossing the street. Giving me a dirty look and honking at me isn't going to make your life better.

• Local blogger who writes about dating and fashion, you looked great in that suit. The running shoes were a nice touch too.

• If the MA Senate race is America speaking, what does NY-23 say? It was only seventy five days ago.

• Rachel Maddow has used frak, grok, and (noun) fail in the last week. Is she too glib or the face of things to cone with Gen-X in the MSM?

Dear Facebook Team,

Please define misuse. Please provide me with a metric.  

Sometimes, when using an iPhone (which you support reasonably well), it is easier to respond via e-mail.  

So...please define misuse or abuse.

Edit: Since I am getting multiple hits per day on this, I have done some testing to determine what constitutes misuse.  I have determined that more that ten e-mail responses in any one hour period will lock out this option for you.  I hope that this helps.
