One of those mocking, derisive but ultimately silly attacks made by both Giuliani and Palin yesterday had to do with mocking Obama’s time as a community organizers.

If you’re a Daft Punk fan, I strongly recommend you pick up their new live concert recording, Alive 2007. I’m bouncing in my chair as I listen to it, there’s so much energy in their live performance. Nearly every song has been remixed, some a little, others a LOT, so this won’t be one of those live albums that you go, “Gosh, didn’t I already own that?”
Good stuff, and DRM Free and high quality at Amazon. Cheaper, too!
Weird Al is a clever guy, and his music is often smart and funny. Josh got me to look at White and Nerdy and from there, I bought the album. I am telling you, this album is pretty classic Weird Al.

Worth buying.
Update: Of course, YouTube has the video:
Makes me smile every time.
