Got a letter this week from the Dem running against DeLay in TX. He is getting lots of financial support and is actually ahead of DeLay in some polls. I am sure that much of his $$ (like my donation) are coming from out of state donors and that the DeLay camp will use that fact to try and sway support away from him. If you know anyone in TX that might be persuaded to make a small donation to a campaign, you can direct them to : [link] .
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

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 hope the Republicans move away from Bush. Bush is the worst president I have ever known (well his administration anyway, I think Bush is not really aware of that much). There are plenty of decent Republicans and they need to distance themselves from this disaster of a presidency.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Are you sure they're correcting you and not just passing your order on to the barista? Because no matter how the customer phrases it, it really is important for the cashier to translate the order into Starbucksese for the barista in order to make sure you get the drink you want.
"You mean a Venti?" is not to the barista. I've heard it a million times.

I love being a regular at my Coffee Bean. I love that they all know my name and what I drink. Especially when I walk in and they automatically start making my drink. I feel like Norm!
Also, the free stuff is cool.

Punishingly Intricate
I was able to watch the Project Runway finale part I last night and I was wondering, other PR fans, if you had been Chloe who you would have chosen to help you? I feel like Diana was the wrong choice but I couldn't figure out who among those remaining would be better. If I'd been able to choose 1st or 2nd I'd also have gone with Nick or Andrae because they seemed the most competent/unlikely to lose it under pressure.

Really? hmm I didn't see enough of him to know how he'd be in the circumstances.

My boss just promised to kill one of our coworkers if he touched the server again. I do love a good death threat in the morning.

Nope. They would correct me, then later give the order to the barrista.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, lisah, I don't know. Who can sew AND not freak out? No one.
