'Safe'
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.
According to a federal indictment, Costin told employees to alter poll data, and managers at the company told employees to "talk to cats and dogs" when instructing them to fabricate the surveys.
Not sure it would work at our place. Teddy is a staunch Democrat. And Marie and Max are apolitical, which is acceptable in 8-year-olds.
Don't mind me. I'm laughing because I'm too unsurprised to be angry, and I'm too old to cry.
I told her to just log into her server and delete it. She screamed, "SPEAK ENGLISH!"
When hubby worked in a survey job, he had one respondent yell "WORDS!" at him several time, then hang up.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. -- The owner of DataUSA Inc., a company that conducted political polls for the campaigns of President Bush, Sen. Joe Lieberman and other candidates, pleaded guilty to fraud for making up survey and poll results.
Oy, I need to break out the tin foil, as I'm seeing conspiracies within conspiracies here. In that, given that Kerry was leading many of the polls prior to the election, were the made up results to give Bush better numbers or worse, so that Kerry would think his strategy was working. Yep, I need a shiny hat.

Well, the article didn't say anything about possible political motivations for this. It seemed they only made up survey results when they ran out of time....
Or when the dogs and cats were undecided.
Cats especially are notoriously fickle when it comes to voting preferences....
This year I was flabbergasted to find Memphis liquor stores closed on July 4th (along with a lot of restaurants).
I had that happen...somewhere. San Mateo? I was very surprised. Oh, wait, might have been Veteran's Day. It was a holiday that I didn't expect things to be closed for, that's for sure. and I couldn't find anywhere to eat, that I remember.
Ah, blue laws. When I was a kid in Baton Rouge they'd put tape across the shelves of things you weren't llowed to buy on Sunday - alcohol, of course (though there might have been a % minimum, seems to me beer and wine coolers were ok, but not wine or liquor), can openers, paint brushes. Those were weird laws and I think they are no more.
When I lived in Grass Valley, CA, I went grocery shopping at 4 AM because that's when I had the time and the motivation and had a shopping list and everything. I was marinating something, so I needed a bottle of wine. Apparently, the same rule abot bars closing at 2 AM applied to selling wine - the girl at the checkout said I couldn't buy it until after 6 or 8 or something. It was very confusing to my sleep deprived self to not be able to buy something that was on my list because of what time it was.
One is never too old to cry.
My wireless headset is crackly in its reception and no one else's is. No fair.
Apropos of nothing, but I saw msbelle and I wanted to share something about Eureka: HMOG, was I the only one that thought the almost-kiss made Colin look very, very hot ?
Carry on.
