That’s a paddlin’ — California Governor to play ping pong with 80-year-old champ. Two questions remain: does Arnold possess the ping pong acumen to defeat the octogenerian kingpin, and if so will his political sensibilities override his famously competitive spirit? Regardless, I think it is safe to say that no matter the final score, we are all winners.

Several hundred miles north of Lodi, the office is still quiet, absent of both the chattering of stoned 20-somethings and the beeps and bloops of that infernal (and regrettebly expensive) NewsBot machine responsible for last Friday’s musical SNAFU.

It is too quiet, even, though it pains me to admit it. I have, in fact, been interviewing some new blood. Exhibit A: Jonny B, as seen in today’s feature photo. It is worth noting that, when asked to pose with the ping pong paddles, he insisted that he do so shirtless. It is also worth noting that this did not get him the job, a fact not wholly uninfluenced by the revelation of a “LaRouche 4 Evah” tattoo writ across his shoulder blades.

The search continues.
