You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Reality.

Yeah, that annoys me too. However, at least my perception of it doesn't influence millions of people and dozens of countries.

Shrub, how he hates the press conference. All those people! Asking questions! He so rarely does them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

People asking questions, and then expecting him to answer them! And not all of them can be answered with excerpts from his stump speech.

MEEP! There was a train derailment (commuter train) over by Allyson's neighborhood. That plus the rain must mean the traffic is all screwy.

ita, looking for the bench for you.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

MEEP! There was a train derailment (commuter train) over by Allyson's neighborhood.

Is that the same derailment that killed four people?

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

The freeway is shut down in my neighborhood, and I have no idea how I will get to work. Ugh.

tommyrot, yes.

Luckily, where I'm headed today is the opposite direction. Allyson, if I didn't have a 9:00 AM Burke Williams appointmet, I'd come and get you and take you to work.

Coding and Sleeping

It's sort of like he can't believe people could find anything negative with his proposal.

How could people think things are not going well in Iraq? They are going to have elections.

How can people think the deficit is a problem, don't they remember he was going to cut it in half (as percentage of GDP, not raw numbers) in five years?

How can people question his social security proposal, don't they understand it will run out of money?

etc...

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I missed Scrubs for TAR, and the only torrent I could find of it seems to be dead in the water. So sad.

Oy vey, Allyson. But that seems like a pretty good reason for not going in, no?
