One of the coolest things about Italy was all the tiny ForTwo Smart cars around, which let you do neat parking jobs like this. I remember seeing a Mini Cooper and thinking "Wow, what a big car". But of course that's just not enough room for some people, and that's how the limo ForTwo got created.

So I'm off to Pittsburgh this weekend to visit my old college roommate and met his fiancee for the first time. I've never been up to Pittsburgh before, so I'm excited to explore a new city.

And I had a big long rant about how ridiculous the debate on Wednesday was but I accidentally deleted it. But suffice to say it took over an hour (and 15 questions) before the first actual policy question came up. And there was a freaking question ABOUT FLAG PINS! As a comment I read pointed out "I have no health insurance, I don't give a *#$#$ about a flag pin!". Even ABC knew how stupid that question was when they had a lady ask the question instead of believing that ABC thought it up. I just really really hope that she was an outlier because heaven help our democracy is wearing a label pin is any sort of consideration for who to vote for.
