You apparently missed an exciting Blazer game last night. Greg Oden came off the bench and, beyond his good stats, provided energy and inside toughness for the home team.

Last night marked the end of the Oden/Durant debate. Or at least it should have.

I dunno, it seemed like the refs were on spring break last night. At least whenever Roy or Aldridge had the ball...

Westwood One drops Lars Larson:

And Compass Media picks him up:

No explanation about why.

Seaside seems to be feeling the Spring Break love:

SEASIDE, Ore. - Two 22-year-old men who left a campfire to walk along the beach in Seaside were beaten unconscious in what appears to have been a hate crime, according to police.

The assault happened during Spring Break weekend and was among 65 calls that police in Seaside responded to from midnight on Thursday through midnight on Sunday. Overall activity over the weekend included six shoplifters, 19 citations for minor in possession/consumption of alcohol, two warrant arrests, one DUII, one arrest for harassment and one accident. Officers also issued 17 traffic citations and 77 warnings.

I heard Westwood one is having money troubles and is getting out of the talk biz during that segment.

Much to the delight of tensky and Randy Leonard Larson's new syndication will carry nearly all of the same 150 stations nationwide.

Larson's local show is carried by 17 stations.

Whereas Randi Rhodes latest failure with now defunct NovaM network was carried by only 11 station nationwide and 4 were in Oregon.

Rhodes when arriving in Portland,

"Lars, I'm here, you're done, buh bye".

On the excitement front. Since you asked.
Lots of snow in the mountains. Tomorrow is another ski/board day for my spring break college daughter and I.

But even more exciting is the near total collapse of the global warming hoax even as President Obama, Governor Kulongoski and others are about to enact sweeping and costly policies to combat it.

I can't think of a more ridiculous and disingenuous movement in the history of mankind.
I wonder when any of the many progressives who have been afraid to voice their own skepticism will tire from being silenced?

And when will the Oregonian stop their print edition? It has become almost as light as the not so green plastic bag is comes in.

There sure seemed to be a lot of teens and younger kids at the Rose Garden last night for the Blazers vs. Philadephia game. More so than usual.

....a cage match between Randi Rhodes and Lars Larson. I'd "pay-per-view" that event in a heartbeat...!!!

Well.... Mayor Creepy's underage boytoy is on the cover of a mens dirty magazine...

Ben and all you, wear your helmets no matter what your sport.

Obviously you've not been up skiing. Right now all the crazies aren't the hotdoggers but the hordes of families who think that of course they can haul the kiddos down a blue run without any lessons at all, especially if said kiddos are wearing helmets!

The march of madness is the ever more schiz-y internal rightwinger rift, between of them paid witnesses saying Obama might fail at all things and them paid witnesses saying Bush yet might succeed at one thing.

Last night marked the end of the Oden/Durant debate. Or at least it should have.

Which way was the debate resolved? Oden's stats were not all that hot, and I understand he played three minutes in the first half because he racked up two fouls on the way out of the locker room.

[ba-da-boom! I liked that one a lot, Jack. ... fouls coming out of the locker room .... Bill McD quality. Speaking of ... TO: Bill -- make a salable joke somewhere in this 'dream image' I saw in mind recently ... There is some crisis on the Space Station. So they send the astronauts up an emergency Shuttle hauling a big bag full of a billion dollars. (For me, it came as an analogy for a human soul in a body walking around Earth, has the same needs as an astronaut floating in space -- and a sack of paper money is not one of them.)]

But this topic is about what's going on that is maybe exciting and maybe people are missing. 'Exciting' is subjective. But people have for years been missing actually witnessing the hatehead inanity of Rush Limbaugh's programming monologue. Now there's a brand new website keeping a daily digest, hour by hour.

Here's today's petite mal episode. Rush irrationality is hilarious in print.

Now everyone else in rightwing talk radio has to avoid repeating what is documented that Rush says, in order to have their own identities. For example, this 'talking point' by Rush at the end of his second hour today is exactly what Larson said several times, in the days before Limbaugh surveillance began. Now Larson is a slave mind dittohead if he says it, so he can't say it anymore.
... suspend income and payroll taxes for an entire year. That, according to Rush, would revive the economy.

People who write jokes have a gold mine there. You can't make this stuff up. You get it all, and the best part is you don't have to listen ever again.

Tensky,

I hear liberal radio hosts say the same l things all the time. Does that mean they are all slaves of some distribution control center?
I mean really.
If you have imagined that Lars or any other host listens to Rush to get things to say you're in need of a little reality check.
If conservative "talking point" comments are made by a number of conservative talk show hosts it's because they are conservative.

"Now Larson is a slave mind dittohead if he says it, so he can't say it anymore."

That is too silly even for you.
