Today is the day Marc Maron’s new CD – a 2-CD set entitled “Final Engagement” – comes out. Unfortunately, if you didn’t pre-order it, it looks like it’s already sold out. It’s back ordered at Amazon and CD Universe, anyway. I didn’t see it on the Zune Marketplace, and I don’t know if it’s on iTunes (master marketer that he is – and I mean that as a compliment – there’s no mention of it on Marc’s website). You can read the liner notes at Punchline.

“Christianity Today” gave us a glimpse into just how far Christianity has turned from the teachings of – what’s his name again? – oh, Jesus Christ, by granting a lengthy interview to Joe the Plumber. Amongst the words of wisdom from Big Joe:

I’ve had some friends that are actually homosexual. And, I mean, they know where I stand, and they know that I wouldn’t have them anywhere near my children.

Gee, what a surprise. Somebody that looks like Jeff Gannon has “friends” that are homosexual, but he wouldn’t let them near his kids. I think dudes you hook with in the men’s room are more “acquaintances” than “friends” there Joe. But I reckon you’d know better then me. Oh, and gawd bless ya, fer sure.

The good news is that Joe won’t be running for office until God tells him to. The bad news is I’m not sure how good these people are at distinguishing between the different voices in their heads.

Matt Lauer just informed me that nude photos of Carrie Prejean (before the fake, Jesus-approved boobs, presumably) have now surfaced. I need URLs Matty-boy! I don’t have time to do a Google search.

It’s Cinco de Mayo, so go out and drink a fifth or two.

Oh well, off to work.
