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.

The Pope has an email server with a connection to heaven.

So definitely not AOL, then?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I hate airlines. I checked on fares for flights on Tuesday. Went to book today. The fares had already gone up $30. That just sucks.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Hey, this is encouraging. Conservative Democratic Senator Mark Pryor of Arkansas speaks out against the current tactics of the religious right: [link]

Their tactics threaten "to make the followers of Jesus Christ just another special-interest group," Pryor said in a conference call with Arkansas reporters. "It is presumptuous of them to think that they represent all Christians in America, even to say they represent all evangelical Christians," added Pryor, 42, a first-term Democrat who has considered himself an evangelical Christian for 25 years.

Hmmm, I'm surprised Pryor took a break from his constant campaigning for an amendment to the Arkansas Constitution that would ban gay marriage.

Talk about strange bedfellows. Well, maybe he'll follow this intelligent realization through to some other logical conclusions.

Hey, it could happen. Um.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day, I suppose.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day, I suppose.

Suddenly I want to know -- if a clock is broken so that it's gaining a minute a day, when is the next time it'll be telling the right time?

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I am sad for me, that I understood the last 980 posts in this thread.

It became clear that at my age, I shall always be a nerd.
