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

Oh, that state legislature news definitely raises my Monday spirits.

ION, I haven't gotten out of bed yet. Went to be somewhere around 3am. Got a phone call at 9:30. Should have gone right back to bed but I messed around on the Interwub. Then finally went to sleep a bit more and am now up. Bath is drawn. Dreading the crowds at Emeryville Trader Joe's. With gas prices, I can't justify driving to further-away TJ's that are less crazy. Honestly, I ought to break my bike out but since I've pissed away so much of the day I don't want to take another hour or so biking there and back (actually, it seems like most of the time is taken trying to lock my monoframe recumbent with a huge motorcycle lock....yeah Bay Area for being a bike theft leader).

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

Ailleann, they seem like they were lovely. What a terrible loss.

That's awful. My condolences, Ailleann.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh Ailleann, that's terrible.

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

Numfar, do the dance of impeachment!

I've just been told I have the option of staying at a hotel tonight. I'm scheduled to work until 2am and start again at 9am. I could avoid the hour drive each way, but I don't have anything packed and I kinda need to leave now. Eh, I'll make the drive. That way the cats can trample me in my sleep.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm so sorry, Ailleann, how horrible.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That is horrible, Aileann. I'm so sorry for your/everyone's loss.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

Thanks everybody. One of my fondest memories of Robert was a piece he wrote for six instruments, tenor, and chocolate bunny. Another of our friends, who's a flutist like me, bit off the top of the ears and played it like a pop bottle. Then, during a musical break, the tenor wolfed it down most theatrically. Never laughed so hard at a chamber concert in my life.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Go California and Illinois!

Not to be cynical or rain on any parades, but is there any chance the House could change their rules before any of the states got their resolutions done? And if not, on the other side of the fence, do we really want, say, South Dakota to know about this rule (in terms of future use)?
