I'm slowly getting back on television...



This is from tonight's 11 p.m. newscast as I explain about how to find gas stations that actually have gas in the current gas crisis around Metro Atlanta.

I stood in front of our jumbo touchscreen computer and pulled up our interactive map that shows where you can find gas across the Metro.

Of course, had I known I was going to be on the tube, I'd have worn a tie and a jacket. (Lesson learned -- I'll put both in the car tomorrow)

Clay Aiken on the cover of next week's People, talking about his decision to "come out."

Duh. As if we didn't already know!

Apparently, John McCain is keeping Sarah Palin on an awful short leash.

The two of them are continuing to campaign together -- although, ABC's Charlie Gibson landed the first one-on-one with Yukon Barbie the GOP VP-in-waiting, which will take place over a couple of days in Alaska later this week.

I'm no big fan of Palin's thus far, and am pretty fearful that we may see an implosion of Stockdale-like proportions by time we get to the debates.

GOP pundits and the McCain camp are touting the post-convention bounce as if it's the be-all-end-all here, but keep in mind that historically, the post-convention bounces on both sides are generally erased by debate time.

Fasten your seatbelts. It ain't over yet....
