12:27 AM – back. got beer and found opener, opened beer, not as good tasting as I'd hoped, but good enough
12:27:56 AM cutting new pita bread up, as planned
12:29 AM Back in action, clicking on David's post about the Senate Candidates Op-Eds in the Globe.
12:32 AM Ran out of hummus halfway through reading the comments. Still have five pita slices, tried to eat one without any hummus, very dry. Need a sip of beer desperately.
12:36 AM The comments seem to be focused on Stupack Amendment, which I said a long time ago was what the public option came down to, bitches.
12:38 AM I can't believe the Pats lost that game.
Please share widely!
I think it’s hilarious…almost painfully self-aware as we bloggers tend to be.
It is hilarious! Just saw it now!

Nicely done.
I think Sabra is the best. But Trader Joe’s just started selling something almost equally as satisfying…or is it spelled “hummos”?
also makes their own hummus. I prefer it b/c it tastes fresher.
Great post, I love it.
<
p>Re your 12:27 comment — try Pabst Blue Ribbon. If you want feel really swanky, pour it into a glass first.
<
p>I can assure you from the lengthy in-depth and self-funded research conducted by my wife and me that PBR:
<
p>1) Goes very well with Trader Joes’s hummus and pita, and
2) Also goes well with chips, and
3) Also goes well with pizza, either Greek or Italian, and
4) Fits very nicely into a progressive budget

p>Enjoy…
that I know BrooklineTom’s wife. She’s a beer expert. I’ve even heard a rumor that instead of gestating in a uterus, Tom’s wife spent her T-minus nine months maturing in a small brewing kettle, swimming in the hops. Just a rumor though. It might have been a wheat mash.
…first you were “committed” to liveblogging, then you threw liveblogging under the bus for a beer, then you went BACK to liveblogging?
<
p>FLIP-FLOPPER.
should always be accompanied by a beer…especially at that hour!!
Sometimes it should be accompanied by multiple beahs.
That means the live blogging gets more interesting as the hours pass by and the beahs are consumed.

…how far away is the Khazei campaign from the nearest micro-brewery?
Magnificent, Sabutai. Brilliant.
but I finally got it. Jeez, I’m thick today!
(not mine, though. I only follow cool people.)
For those who must use Firefox (like me) and who have a web habit that needs some control, may I recommend leechblock?
I asked first. Maybe the misspelling of “assessed”?
<
p>Actually, I had been meaning to drop a recommendation for Leachblock into some comment somewhere and I thought it might be relevant here for those who might be too BMG-obsessed.
<
p>I certainly did not mean to imply you are BMG-obsessed, dcsurfer.
<
p>If it sounded that way, I apologize.
Leachblock does seem like a good idea, I could have used it about three years ago, now it’s too late. Now it’s more important that I have constant and unlimited access, Keith Richards style.
<
p>Do you know any other good plug-ins? I’ve been hoping for a Firefox plug-in that records every POST http request the browser makes in a log, so I can go back and see I made a comment at miamiherald.com, or bought a dozen cans of Bon Ami, and go back and check for follow-up comments, or automatically! check for follow-up comments? Yay! Also, is there a way to keep an eye on all the behind the scenes traffic that I’m not aware of, and behind the scenes javascript overheating my CPU, and sites that snarf information from me?
There is a ton of developer-friendly add-ons to Firefox if you want to find out what it’s sending or receiving over the wire.
<
p>I notice I can’t spell “leech” either.
