What do you think it was about the show that kept the fans coming back? I have no idea. But I'm so glad they did. I mean, we always joke that no matter where they put the show - whether it's Saturday morning after cartoons or after Carson Daly on weeknights - no matter where they put it, the same audience followed us. We used to say, Hey, how were the numbers last night? It turned out to pretty much always be the same number no matter whether it was a giant promoted episode or had a big [guest] star...
...House and Senate Republican leaders have their way, Saturday's gathering at Pie-Tanza, a strip-mall pizza joint in Arlington, Va., will be remembered as the beginning of the rebirth of the Grand Old Party. In addition to pizza, the venue, selected by the freshly born, center-leaning National Council for a New America (NCNA), served up symbolism: suburban areas like this one, on the outskirts of Washington, were GOP bastions not so long ago, and they'll need to come back to the fold for a Republican resurgence.

As of Saturday night, the official number of confirmed swine-flu cases in Mexico stood at 473, less than a third of early estimates, and the death toll was only 19. (Health officials have stopped publicly tallying suspected cases; there are still so many garden-variety flu cases that they felt continued reporting of suspected cases of swine flu would unnecessarily...
...Mexican Health Minister Jose Angel Cordova warned his countrymen Saturday evening that it's "premature to say we've passed the [outbreak's] most worrisome moment." But the positive flu-containment news coming from the government may well put public pressure on Calderón to let businesses like restaurants open sooner than the end of the long Cinco de Mayo weekend on Tuesday. With few people on the streets on what is usually a bustling Mexico holiday, businessmen like taxi driver Francisco Diaz are chafing. "I've been driving all day and all I've got to show...
