• The search goes on for survivors of the London bombings; at least 50 are dead and there will be more. Thankfully, Fox 9 News ensures us that the Minneapolis-St. Paul transit system is safe...for now. Let's see, the London Underground and the Hiawatha Light Rail Line: One of these things is not like the other... (Also, check out loyal PeP reader Anti-Everything's comment on the attacks.)
• Could it be true? Everyone is expecting an end to Minnesota Meltdown 2005 to come this afternoon. Not many specific details as of yet, but we know that the racino deal is off the table. This leaves one burning question in my mind: What will the PeP do when it can't complain about the state government shutdown?
• More and more, St. Paul DFL mayoral candidate Chris Coleman's campaign is sounding like that great one John Kerry ran...on the merits of his "electability" (remember that word?). Liberal groups are lining up behind him, and this living wage issue could be a thorn in his side.
• The Midwest Scrapbook Association's convention is being held in St. Paul this weekend...and I'm speechless.
• Lindsay! Lohan! buys some crap I know she doesn't need, and I'm going to flog myself for even linking to it.
• Looking to hook-up this weekend? Forget Drink, Spin, and William's, ladies...just sign up for jury duty.
