And also -- dude, I knew about King George III and the madness, but I didn't know he had porphyria! Did you all know that Mary Queen of Scots had porphyria? Wicked!

I knew this.

Knew, because I've killed a few brain cells tonight, and I may not know in the morning.

And a lovely good liberal, too.

But yes, very short.

Did we know that Robert Reich (sp?) former Secretary of Labor, currently on TDS, is a little person?

I thought he was just really short.

Erin, I think you need to go celebrate your drunken state with something regrettable that will entertain us in the morning. Go. Hookerize.

Man, I wish.

But the possible hookerificness left about 1/2 an hour ago.

I hear him on NPR all the time, but this is the first time I've seen him sitting next to anybody.

Erin, you can just scrawl a note on the bathroom mirror: "Go check Natter." We'll preserve your current state so you can return to it later.

Have five years of Buffy taught you nothing about leg irons!?!

Hee! Computer science joke.

He is wee. Which always made him look kinda funny next to the decidedly bearish Bill C. (Although iirc, he and Shalala were about the same size.) (Actually, Clinton surrounded himself with munchkins. Exhibit C: SnuffleupagusStephanopoulous. Definite Oz vibe there.) (Dorothy in. Although the other Oz is apropos as well.) (These parens brought to you by 1/2 bottle petite syrah.)
