You should know that because I am fairly lame/Semitic/alcoholic, I did not attend Jenna Elfman's previously talked-up Scientology party this Tuesday. A local Jewish PR agency had its annual Latkes & Vodkas party at the same time, & in the end, I had to go with my own and choose the Chosen People's soiree. I also consumed approximately seven of the former & four of the latter Chanukah treats, so I was sufficiently sauced by night's end. Get it? Sauced, as in apple, as in latke toppings... OK, OK, I'm done.

But really, who could pass up a party that put out these invitations?

My good friend Rebecca, a native Manhattanite, snapped the following photo someplace in the Big Apple. Frankly, I'm quite jealous that I didn't see this sign on my own, in my own city, because this is so blogworthy, & I feel a bit like a cheat posting someone else's photographic experience. That said, this is awesome. I love guerilla art. If I could find this sign online someplace, I'd post it in Dupont Circle myself!

I also love that the McCain-haters plopped their gum right on his eyeballs. It's like the McCain supporters weren't even comfortable enough with their dislike to go all the way in defacing the Big O's likeness.

"So I have decided, given the current f*cked up state of planet Earth, if McCain/Palin get elected, I am going to start preparing for the end of times... because I am pretty sure all of the shit that is going on right now is stated in Revelations as signs of the apocalypse. I double-checked: It does in fact state, 'If a redneck moose-hunting Alaskan becomes VP, prepare for the end.'"

A Fun New Game at My Expense! Created By... Me.

I visited the brand, spankin' new Newseum on Friday with coworkers/friends, where we began a new game, one that I suspect will be ongoing despite its somewhat depressing undertones in relations to my living quarters. The game, "Things That Are Bigger Than Kate's Apartment," is a bit of a spin on "Things Younger Than John McCain," the trendy, questionably humorous ageism blog. Trust me, my game is just as fun!

Round One: Things That Are Bigger Than Kate's Apartment:

#1: Unabomber Theodore Kasczynski's remote cabin in the woods of Montana

#2: The Newseum's three impressive hydraulic glass elevators
