... that once Allegheny County's votes are full counted, we'll storm Obama to state-wide victory like we stormed over other teams in five Super Bowls.

Now they're talking about how the Clinton campaign is gonna argue that Obama can't be the general nominee because he hasn't pulled the easternmost and westernmost corridors, citing the 1988 election as a precedent. The "Casey democrats", they're saying, won't vote for him. Never mind that Casey himself has actually endorsed Obama.

Interesting that CNN is projecting Obama as having won a few counties in central PA, like the one attached to Harrisburg.

I'm confident that we're gonna deliver Pittsburgh for Obama. Well, not me personally, since my absentee ballot never showed up and therefore i didn't vote (THANKS ALLEGHENT COUNTRY DEPARTMENT OF ELECTIONS!!!!!).

I can't stand hearing you talk, but if I switch to MSNBC I'll hear the sound of Chris Matthews which is even worse.

And I may end up having to vote for Matthews in a few years....

Unfortunately for "local" commercials (like the really poorly shot one featuring State Senator Wayne Fontana - do these guys use After Effects 1.0 or something?) CNN removes their bottom graphic showing the delegate count. This count hasn't changed in six weeks - but just in case someone picks up a delegate during this Subway commercials, CNN will let me know.

CNN is saying "too early to call". This is good - means it doesn't show a 60-40 blowout. Of course if she wins by 58% I'm sure they'll spin it into an "amazing comeback" like David and Goliath or something.

but been digging some records this weekend -

WYE OAK - a two-piece indie pop/rock band, merge records, sounds a bit like versus or yo la tengo, and normally i would think 'so what' but the album is just, i dunno, great.

the new NOTWIST record starts off good - this is my first listen and i can't remember anything they've done in years but i still have a fond spot for the 'torture day' 7" i bought my freshman year of college ...

SKELETON CREW learn to talk and the country of blinds - so incredibly underrated and good.

i've put up a new content management system on icewhistle.com (i guess you can call it that). there's lots to do on it, but at least it's there now instead of the ugly crap that was there before.
