You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Other IL residents, what's the deal with the State Treasurer's race? Why are the in-state Dem. bigwigs all pulling for Babymaker Mangieri while Obama is stumping for Babyface Gianoullious?

German researchers

To quote Jon Stewart, "We don't want the Germans happy. When they get happy, they get grabby," with a graphic of the 9/1/39 London Times front page over his shoulder, saying, "Germans Invade Poland."

ETA:

Other IL residents, what's the deal with the State Treasurer's race?

Don't know anything about this race, but I liked Eisendrath's TV ad, in which he says that "Democrats aren't supposed to be corrupt. We're not like THIS guy!" and shows a picture of Cheney. I giggled.

ETA again, another War Room tidbit:

At the end of his speech in Cleveland today, George W. Bush said he'd be "glad to answer some questions." But when the questions at the lunchtime event dragged on a little long for his liking, Bush blurted out, "Anybody work here in this town?"

Think Progress beat us to the inevitable punch line: Not as many as used to, sir.

Since Bush became president, the unemployment rate in Cleveland has increased by 29 percent, from 4.5 percent in January 2001 to 5.8 percent in January 2006.

And it's free!

Of course now I find out that there aren't that many reviews for what I need (which is landscapers). Still...

Who, me? If so, sure!

I was just thinking "German researchers support me in email" would make a shiny tag.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Ooh! That's exactly what I've been looking for. I've been so pissed off at the lummoxes who've been working on our home that I thought about starting a site for consumers to talk to each other about contractors. Thanks for the tip (by proxy)!

eta: Suela, I know a fab landscaper but I'm not sure what your price range is. He's a friend of a friend and I couldn't get him to take a job for me (because I think he knows how strapped I am). But I've seen his work and it's GREAT.

The guy who's working on our place right now is pretty good but I'm waiting to pass final judgment on the outcome.
