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.
After reading a friend's, er, former friend's blog yesterday, I'm kinda pissy about the attitude the coasts have towards Flyover-Jesusland. Former friend said, in effect, that the people in Mississippi deserved to die because they were stupid and didn't vote the right way in 2004.
Just went and checked your blogroll. I got it in one.
Former friend is the right word. For the things he said about Southerners he gets the kind of undying hatred I normally reserve for Dubya.

I'm not sure it's fair to group those two sentences. I live in the bluest of blue state (and we're flyover, too!) and I've heard nothing of the sort. Jackassery knows no color.
There are the millions of poor folk who'd be trapped in the theocracy, getting stoned to death in public squares, who were unable to leave due to not having anyplace else to go, I think.
Eh. If they seceded, they'd be another country, and we never jump in when this happens in other countries.
Probably better to set aside some real estate where the therocratists could move to. Like, oh, Venus.
I need a word: mundaneness? mundancity?
And ITA with bon about gas pricing and motivation.
Thousands? God.
I just saw on the news that the mayor of a hurricane-hit Mississippi town has been reported missing, too. (Can't remember the name of the town now, damn it...)
mundanity

Mundacity! It's like mendacity but more common and less untrue.
Coolish thing: my firm is matching Red Cross donations for Katrina.
answering their contempt and vitriol with contempt and vitriol is counter-productive and the terrorists have already won and think of the children.
This? Pretty much generally a good idea in my book. Which book being, oddly enough, the Bible.

I don't have a book and am inclined to agree.
Askye? My cell # insent. If you're still about.

The Chicago Tribune is doing the same (if you want to make your donation stretch farther, they're matching 50 cents to the dollar up to $1 million).
