The Truth (with (some) jokes)
We went to see Al Franken this evening. He was speaking and signing books at Caltech. His talk was funny, mostly in a deadpan way. He talked about the experience of going on USO tours in Iraq and about how Rush Limbaugh pulls statistics out of his ass. He also made a few, um, modest predictions, including Dick Cheney being executed for treason. He said that he’s opposed to the death penalty, but the law is the law…
It was a fun evening, and one of those things that makes us think “we’re not really crazy after all!”

How fun! I would love to see him. I’m sure he is hilarious. If we have to think of this stuff, then we might as well have a laugh at it.
