OK, put on the basketball game, and the easy chair is MINE!

The captain of this ship - and until this weekend, my six-month-plus sparring partner - STD was gracious (and foolish) enough to offer me an invite to this blog.

I'll have a post soon on the real Warner record, but first, I thought I'd let you get a chance to look at the five installments of the Warnerese-to-English translator (which you, dear readers, may not have noticed during the nomination campaign). Each installment listed below takes a Warner event or interview, and turns his gobbledy-gook into English.

Installment 1: Warner's kick-off speech.

Installment 2: A bunch of snippets caught by the Washington Times.

Installment 3: Warner's fundraising letter.

Installment 4: Warner in Fredericksburg, and finally . . .

Installment 5: His first TV ad.

So, enjoy!

What's that? Whaddya mean the NBA Finals aren't on 'til Thursday?!?!?!
