Fortunately, my commute merely has me briefly crossing Route 50, so I wasn’t delayed for an extra hour by bizarre police activity.

The midweek linkfest:

Dean Esmay explains how to get over like a fat rat.
King of Fools likes the new $50s–and will take yours if you don’t.
Kevin Aylward doesn’t think the elections will be cancelled.
Steven Taylor defends Andrew Sullivan from criticism from Kevin Drum over his criticism of Hillary Clinton.
Dodd Harris catches John Kerry flip-flopping on picket lines.
John Cole is on a blog strike.
Jeff Goldstein isn’t as sick as he’d thought but still doesn’t know what’s wrong with him. (I’d lay off the hyper-Atkins diet, just in case though.)

Thanks as always for the link.

And a big thanks for the daily Traffic Jam. I work from home so your virtual version is the closest I ever come to gridlock. (And I've gotten to where I even prefer it to the real thing!)

Beltway Traffic Jam

James Joyner | Thursday, June 24, 2004

Now that school’s out for summer, traffic is supposed to be noticably dimished. I haven’t yet noticed.

The Thursday linkfest:

Smash had a good time at a Berkeley peace rally.
Kevin McGehee, who still doesn’t have any pictures of Mary Kate and Ashley nude, is not the #1 Google search result for Mary Kate and Ashley nude.
Michelle Malkin offers amusing observations about P.J. O’Rourke, Laura Ingraham, and Lara Flynn Boyle’s chest.
King of Fools has an interesting solution to warts that, apparently, doesn’t involve Lara Flynn Boyle.
Jeff Goldstein has some thoughts on al Qaeda, Robert Byrd, and tuna.
Radley Balko wants you to pick which of several absurd limitations on our liberty isn’t seriously being proposed. Yet.

I'm running out of ways to say thanks for the linkage. Maybe I'll hunt down foreign translations for the future....I'm assuming, of course, that you'll continue to link to me. ;-)

So, let's get the French out of the way - Merci beaucoup, mon ami!
