These are the best of the times and the worst. San Francisco pretty boy Mayor Gavin Newsom has made it official. He’s running for Governor! Le sigh! Now on one hand I figure the state is so far in the crapper thanks to all those (stupid) people that voted for Ah-nold’s incompetence how can it [...] There was a line in an episode of Sex and the City where Carrie laments to her friends that she had to get on her “Sassy” horse.
