Shameless plug time: My friend Dan is the editor of About.com's Political Humor site. He took on the gig a month or two before the presidential elections, so naturally he's been thrilled about the resultant chaos which has been such good fodder for humorists everywhere, and a fantastic source for eyeballs and click-throughs. He recently held the 2000 Political Dot-Comedy Awards, where he and the users picked the funniest political sites. One of the award-winners – Too Stupid to be President.com – saw fit to make a Flash movie out of the occasion, wherein they got an award named after him.

Dan, who've I've known since we were 3 years old, has officially been bronzed. Couldn't happen to a more deserving fellow.

So I found my new favorite karaoke tune. And it's... "Sweet Transvestite" from The Rocky Horror Show. (Fishnets and bustier optional.) Yeah, that song's gonna score with the chicks.
