In other news: Keith wasn’t using the subway today and his car got stuck behind a truck. He tweeted from the passenger seat:
Karma! Stuck behind a Darius Rucker-emblazoned 18-wheeler in midtown #OnlyWannaBeWithYouInTraffic
Why Karma? Keith and Dan Patrick were in the video of Only Wanna Be With You by Hootie & The Blowfish.
A second tweet gives you the full picture:
Judging by the font it’s “Darius Rucker And The Deathly Hallows Part 2″

Rachel talks about Keith, who wants world domination but gets “Hannitized” in fashion
Yesterday, Rachel Maddow was on The Late Show and Dave’s first questions were about Keith. She also cleared up the misconception about both not talking.
“My friend Keith (…) We have not talked since he left MSNBC but I don’t think that’s for any important reason. We’ve been busy.“
You can watch it on their website or ,if that doesn’t work, here.
Also, the Associated Press has another interview published by ABC, among others, with more details about the studio and Keith’s wish of world domination. Most important fact: The set for his show hasn’t been delivered yet.
Furthermore a new Contradictionary came out today:
The term “Hannitized” already exists with several meanings.
And today’s eye candy: Keith walking around Yankee Stadium (complete with fashion analysis).
