If you watch the show, you know almost all of the episodes end with Alan and Denny drinking scotch and smoking cigars after a long week of legal rangling.  I had to wait for the transcript for this one, but it was well worth it:

Alan Shore: Do you think you’re a racist Denny?
Denny Crane: Oh… nah, I… I don’t know. Do you think it’s racist to say a man sounds black?
Alan Shore: I think it’s more offensive to say, ‘street’ or ‘urban’, when the inference is you mean ‘black’.
Denny Crane: So, what do you say?
Alan Shore: Well, Barack Obama referred to the black sound as a black idiom, more like jazz and less like a set score.
Denny Crane: They let him get away with that?
Alan Shore: Evidently.
Denny Crane: I might vote for him, you know.
Alan Shore: Obama?
Denny Crane: “Anybody in America can grow up to be president!” That’s what I say. Except Hillary! She wins, I puke.
Alan Shore: Barack Obama.
Denny Crane: Ah. Handsome. Great photo-op. But I don’t know what he stands for. Be a perfect president. He speaks perfect white, as well as black. You never heard me say that.
Alan Shore: What about McCain?
Denny Crane: He speaks Bush now. Can’t win.
Alan Shore: Obama is against the war now, you know.
Denny Crane: So am I. [Alan is surprised] It’s boring. I’m ready for a new war. Time to blow up Iran. They got Sadam. Now we gotta get uh… Amina **********. And that nut job in North Korea, they both gotta go. And not because they’re not white.
Alan Shore: Okay. Denny, does it bother you at all that America is so hated by the rest of the world these days? Denny Crane: Well, of course it does, Alan. Just can’t please everybody. Better to just…
Alan Shore: Blow them up.
Denny Crane: Exactly. And not because they’re not white.
Alan Shore: No. ------------

This was written after the Obama "articulate" debacle and I think it illustrates a lot of the American consciousness when it comes to politics and race.

This had to have been one of the coolest games to ever see:

Nadal vs. Federer on a hybrid court of half grass and half clay.  Federer, who has won 4 straight Wimbeldon's, and Nadal, who has won 78(!) straight clay matches faced off in a three set match that went to a third set tiebreaker.  Tennis is such a masterful game, they should add the hard surface to make this type of adaptation even more interesting.  Maybe an American could start winning, too.

If only Andy could find his mojo . . . .
