Damn, they need to give us more space.

I filmed the Donny Deutsch show yesterday.  It airs Monday, Oct 6th at 10pm.  I know I have bad posture, but can they do better than putting those stools so damn close to each other?  Donny, get some chairs!?  Stools are for bars!

Can't help but feel like this is all just a rush, rush- big band-aid. Please let this mess get fixed. And people want to ban kids from wearing hoods in school? More crimes are commited by guys wearing white collared shirts and neck ties.

I ate steak tonight for the first time in like 3 months.  It was amazing. Geoff Rudaw - my chef - hooked it up for us in my office. Late biz dinner.  My plate was happy, but now I'm binded up like Lehman brothers.  Tommorow-- strictly sushi. Whoa.

John Kerry is surprisingly 3rd at 313mil

G W. Bush is way down there at 20mil.  Makes sense.
