My very funny friend Joey Green has a new book out: Sarah Palin’s Secret Diary. He says that he loves it, and it’s the funniest book he’s ever written.

Kate sez, “Fi (a cat of ours) doesn’t read my blog because I use too many swears.” But you, YOU have no excuse not to go over there and read about inviso-text, my questionable TV-viewing habits, a folder titled “No, Kate, No!”, and a miniature Jane Austen [...]
