Friday Funnies: Lamott on Colbert. Time Traveling Obama!
I've read some of Anne Lamott's books, she's pretty funny. Turns out Lamott is speaking this Sunday, May 18th in Oakland if anyone wants to see her live. (link)
Another funny clip is from Colbert's story about Edward's endorsing Obama. I especially liked the ending where Colbert calls Obama out as a time traveler. Being a time traveler myself I just want to say that I don't remember seeing Obama back in the 1930's but hey, my tricorder burned out before I could scan ALL the news so I could have missed him.

I've always liked Anne Lamott. I know some people really don't, but I think she's a really skilled writer and also very funny. Her writing on her religious conversion has, for the most part, been interesting too. She seems as surprised as anyone that she "got religion" rather than trying to be more-pious-than-thou.
She was also a favorite of Molly Ivins and wrote a very movingly of spending time with Ivins very near the end of her life.
