Cory and I would get along well.
This morning, Twitter user @my_serenelove tweeted at the mayor, “I live around the corner from u on homestead. Why don’t we have our power back. Half of my block does.” His response: “There is someone at my house now (Eric). I’ve got space u can relax in, charge devices & even a working DVD player. Come by.”
But then, Booker must have thought, what if @my_serenelove’s neighbor sees her come over, and think she wasn’t invited? “Please let any1 on Homestead know they can come 2 my house & use the spare apt on 1st floor 2 relax, get warm, charge up etc,” he tweeted next. Less than an hour ago, @my_serenelove confirmedwhere she was: “At @CoryBooker house. Charging everything up. Thx.”
I think I just fell for Cory Booker.
Move out of the way, Chris Nolan. You’ve been usurped for “Must See Film of the Summer.”
I’m fairly certain the Real Housewives of South Boston will be classier than any other franchise. No, I am not be ironic or facetious with that statement.
And now back to our regular programming, the “Romney and Not Romney” show. For those just tuning in, the role of Not Mitt Romney is being played for this half-hour by Herman Cain, who replaced Rick Perry, who inherited the role from Michele Bachmann. Christie could have been the most successful Not Romney to date, but as it turns out, he prefers the role of Not Running. Team Romney was so happy that when they got early word they called major donors to let them know. The campaign can now reach out to those who had been awaiting Christie’s decision.
The Republican race for the presidency is now set. There may be more guest appearances, but the nominee is going to come from the current cast. Despair was the emotion animating the Christie candidacy, which wasn’t so much a shadow campaign as a zombie campaign. No matter how many times Christie tried to kill the movement, it reappeared, enlivened by pundits, party insiders in the thrall of blunt talk, and an unsettled field.
I agree with Salon at this point - nothing can stop Romney now.
The vagabond Nets — denizens of Newark, late of East Rutherford, N.J., and Long Island — will settle in downtown Brooklyn next year with a new identity but a familiar name.
“We named the New Jersey Nets the Brooklyn Nets,” Jay-Z, the music mogul and part-owner of the franchise, announced Monday morning in a ceremony that was brief and anticlimactic.
The Brooklyn Nets moniker had been a poorly kept secret in recent months and was considered a given for some time before that, despite the public ruminations by the majority owner, Mikhail D. Prokhorov, about a rebranding. Team officials considered alternatives and drafted focus groups but ultimately chose continuity (Nets) and cachet (Brooklyn).
I’ll admit it - I’m excited to see what they come up with for the new logo/uniforms.
