Hurricane Earl hits!

I’m at our place by the beach in Maine as I write this.

If Hurricane Earl has devastated the coast, as the media said Earl would, someone should tell this guy who is swimming in the tsunami-sized waves.

Also, the family who brought their kids down in that wagon. They look terrified, too.


The horror, the horror.


Nominate new PMO Chief of Staff here!

While the Parliamentary Press Gallery furiously debate who,exactly, first broke the news about Guy Giorno’s departure, I think the rest of us should wildly speculate about who will be his successor.

We’ll have zero impact on the decision, naturally, but it’ll be fun. And – who knows – someone may actually get it right. Nominate your pick(s) in comments.


From the deepest Annex

This is totally absurd. Honestly.

For the love of God: the new network hasn’t even broadcast 60 seconds of content, and it’s already generating historically humongous levels of hysteria, histrionics and hyper-ventilating (I love alliterations, guilty as charged, etc.). Get a grip, Maggie!

Among other things, I have never seen a media launch generate so much useful, and free, P.R. Never.

Right about now, I can picture Kory Teneycke grinning, can’t you?


Vital statistics

In case you were wondering, which you weren’t, the new-look www.warrenkinsella.com has apparently surpassed 3 million visits.

That is spread amongst some 560,000 unique visitors, Team Propellerhead tell me.

Suitably impressed comments are of course welcome.


Coastal bound

Heading off, shortly, to get my Mom and then head to Maine for a week with my kids.  Web stuff willl be light and/or sporadic, unless something super-duper important happens.  Or it rains.

Hug yours while you still can.
