Conversation at work, while I was in a meeting no less:

Pete: So what does this mean? (pointing to the status update bar on the facebook page)

Amy:  It’s how you tell people what you’re doing (types: “St. Matthew’s Children’s Fund is getting used to facebook”)

Pete: Oh.

Amy: And people can comment on it (click on the comment button)

Amy:  See your fans can write things like, “Oh cool” (types: “Oh cool”)

Pete:  Interesting

Jez: Wait wait wait [mind you, Jeez does not work with us - he works for another company]  Say that again.

Amy: What?

Jez:  Say “cool”

Amy: Cool?

Jez: Yes, say it again.  American’s say it in such a good way.  Say it.

Amy: Cool

Jez:  See Pete.  I love the way Americans say cool.  Especially American girls.  It’s so nice.  Say it again, please?

Amy: Cool (starts laughing)

Jez: Oh if only we could talk like that.

 

Oh Brits!  Oh Jez!

Meghan McCain Interview with Rachel Maddow

Just finished watching it (I know, I’m a little late on this…):

Watch it for yourself if you haven’t already:

She makes a lot of sense.  The Republican Party will become irrelevant to young people (i.e. the will probably never put up a strong fight in an election until the Millennials die) unless they put up a good candidate in 2012.  The way they go about winning over the young vote is not by anti-semitic comments.  Good job Meghan – maybe a Republican that I could actually respect – at least on of them has to speak the truth.
