The Little Police

Last night, I came up with the concept of the Little Police. They'd be a special team of police midgets with one purpose: to chase down small criminals who squeeze through openings like Tom & Jerry-style mouse holes where the big police can't tread.

Come on, you know you wish you'd thought of it first. Especially when Little Police: The Motion Picture is optioned, with Gary Coleman playing the gruff sergeant with a heart of gold.

Everything I Needed to Know About Politics I Learned from Road House

The new White House chief of staff told employees that they had to either "re-engage" or that now was the time to quit. Somehow, this struck me as very much resembling Dalton's speech to the staff at the start of Road House, where he tells them that if anyone wants to quit, now's the time to do it, because it's "my way or the highway." I can see the new guy showing up in overly tight black clothes, chain-smoking, and laying down the rules- no dealing, no skimming from the till, and so on and so forth.

I wonder if this makes Iraq our "regular Saturday night thing"?
