Michael Hiltzik, who blogs for the L.A. Times, has a view of Arnold Schwarzenegger that I find interesting. It includes the prediction that Arnold will not stand for re-election; that he will find some excuse to go do other things. Having predicted that Schwarzenegger would not run in the first place, I'm not about to venture another Arnold projection. But you might want to read Hiltzik's take.

Conan Cancellation

The taping of tonight's Late Night with Conan O'Brien was cancelled and a rerun will be on in place of the scheduled new episode. Could this mean that Mr. O'Brien's spouse is delivering their second baby?

Black on Green Screen

In the spirit of "If you can't beat 'em...", comedian Lewis Black will be appearing this evening on The Weather Channel to try his hand at forecasting and to (perhaps) explain why he's spent years calling it "a worthless channel." This will allegedly occur shortly after 9PM Eastern time and again shortly after Midnight. I'm not sure if the later segment is a replay of the earlier material. Whatever it is, it was taped on Monday so Mr. Black's predictions will have a dubious legitimacy.
