George W. Bush swore the presidential oath for a second term in turbulent times Thursday and issued a sweeping pledge to spread liberty and freedom "to the darkest corners of the world."

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Allyson, I hope this gets solved soon (and with minimum fuss, too).

Yo Prez, charity begins at home.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Allyson, I had that happen to me once and was all scared, but it turned out to be just stubborn wax that they flushed out for me. I hope yours is similarly simply dealt with.

Dude, I do not want Bush spreading liberty to my dark corners.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Here. Read Obama's speech. It soothes on this day, the coronation of King George.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Heal-ma to Allyson's ear.
YaY! for Gus coming home.
And I heart Cindy's son's teacher, too. It was StE's third grade teacher that killed his love for reading, and it never did come all the way back. I still hold a grudge.
And speaking of the Rapture, it's a relief, in a way, to have one's conspiracy theories and paranoia confirmed.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Timelies,
Yay to Gus coming back home.
WTF? Desperate Alias? Alias Housewives? Stepford Alias?
It made me think of the X-Files episode "Arcadia".
Re: VM guest star, while it will be cool to see her again and I still think she's lovely, she doesn't really look like a late teens/early 20s anymore. Unless she's supposed to be 10 years older than Logan or something.
I saw a flag at half mast on the way to work this morning, is something going on or does someone just really dislike Bush?
Around here, anyway, flags have been at half-mast since the tsunami.
When a friend of mine was about 16, she would sometimes take her one year old brother out - she got a lot of dirty looks from people who assumed he was her son.
Apparently my aunt used to get dirty looks when she took me out as a baby, as she was 13 at the time.
I am very obviously my father's son. About the only one in my family people tend to express disbelief over my being related to is my brother, which is funny since we have similar height and coloring (though I'm a bit taller and broader shouldered) and almost identical hair. (Though he styles his different and tends to dye it assorted colors.)
