There hasn't been a Friday Fish Fry in ages and it's time to revive the art form. Art form is probably a grandiose term for this exercise, but life would be boring without hyperbole and a whole lot more depressing.
Growing up, my family would usually eat fish on Friday. On my grandparents' drive from the Bronx to God's Country (New Jersey), they would pick up some flounder or haddock to fry for Friday night's dinner.

There are some uncanny parallels between RFK's campaign and the Obama campaign.

At his farewell to the Senate, Alaska's senior Senator Ted Stevens received a nearly one-minute standing ovation from his Senate colleagues.

24's Jack Bauer will be back on Sunday night. Jack is the man if you're into torture, executions, failed relationships and chaos. Works for me.
