Well, it's true. FR has dropped into a non-news continuum, which we won't exit until the sports things are over.

I do not EVER want to read any criticism about the live threads Howlin does. Hers are about NEWS.

Howlin, what is your all-time favorite live thread?

Here are mine:

1. The 2000 DNC convention on the night Gore showed that home movie with the naked, pregnant Tipper self-portrait
2. The Florida Recount court case threads
3. The UN Security Council meeting on the day that Jack Straw insulted Dominic de Villepin

Those types of threads are the reason I continue to support FR.

But reading tonight, I found this one:
