TMQD (Today's Media Quote of the Day) comes from The Stranger's Adrian Ryan (http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/01/and_now_some_serious_investigative_journ):

"Michael Moore. Well, he’s a lovely man. Lovely. I’m not against him. But he is to an optimist’s attitude what salt panties are to a snail’s clam."

For the record, it's doubtful if Seattle's favorite gossip maven knows jack about clam°. Snail or otherwise.

° clam — If you have to ask, please don't. This is one occasion when it would do you better to figure it out for yourself. I promise.
