Seriously, this video is pretty much the ideal response to the whole thing. McCain’s campaign ought to be embarrassed, and the rest of us can laugh at both his campaign and Paris’s response.
(of course it is Paris Hilton, and she gets the details of the energy policy wrong… drilling wouldn’t carry us over because it would take 5-10 years before any of that oil actually entered the market)

At $3.80, I’ll forgive the spelling, too. Having done this kind of shopping now in India and China, I can say that you really get an appreciation for the scale and profit margins of mass produced goods when you go over there. I still have my $18 North Face waterproof, faux-Gore Tex jacket picked up in Beijing.
India for ten days, starting today. I have weekends and evenings free. What to do?
Bombay 4 days
Delhi 4 days
Agra day trip
Jaipur 1 day
Suggestions welcome now. The clock is ticking.
I gotta be honest. When I first heard about the E-Ticket idea, essentially creating the equivalent of the Sunday paper’s magazine insert for the web, I didn’t like it. It seemed a bit goofy and like it might be a marketing thing gone awry. Boy was I wrong. The Ichiro E-Ticket a few weeks ago was the first one that got my attention. I actually read the whole thing through. The content was great but the visuals, man, that was an awesome layout.
Last week, they did the Graham Bensinger interview with OJ Simpson, a story as much about Graham, an 18-year old with a radio show on ESPN Radio in St. Louis. Part of what has surprised me, I think, is that ESPN (the TV network) has been involved with the projects, creating pieces for TV that correspond to the E-Ticket for the weekend. Pretty cool stuff.
Which brings me to this week’s E-Ticket: A Wicket Wedding. Amar Shah relates his instant love of cricket when he and his bride went to India to get married. It’s a pretty cool story, and the photos are worth it. And, if you wanted to know the rules, they’re right there.
