Okay, this is just getting silly. There was a small puddle on the stairs outside my office, which I miraculously managed not slip in. Of course, the chick two steps behind me? not so lucky, and we both went boom.
Even when I manage to walk like an adult, I hurt myself.
You okay?
She knocked you over? Did you at least land on her?
I mean, to save yourself undeserved union with the ground.
Pretty sparklies.

One time I had the song "Stoned" on and just as he was singing the line "Hitchhike to Rhome. Take the Greyhound to Fredericksburg" I passed a sign for Fredericksburg. Virginia not Texas, though.
my favorite DQ is in Rhome, TX.
You okay?
Think so. I have ice on my ankle, but I didn't hit anything vital.

Kind of, though it was more of a stumble/partial fall, oh, maybe I'll just sit down kind of quickly-fall than a fall-fall, and nope.
Yikes, Perkins! Glad you're more or less OK.

No comment....
As has been clear for some time, the Bush administration lacks an understanding of and/or a belief in the most basic principles of our system of government.
Here is Tony Snow today (via Atrios), defending the president's "signing statements" and responding to this question: "But isn't it the Supreme Court that's supposed to decide whether laws are unconstitutional or not?"
Snow: "No, as a matter of fact the president has an obligation to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. That is an obligation that presidents have enacted through signing statements going back to Jefferson. So, while the Supreme Court can be an arbiter of the Constitution, the fact is the President is the one, the only person who, by the Constitution, is given the responsibility to preserve, protect, and defend that document, so it is perfectly consistent with presidential authority under the Constitution itself."
See, I admire Mr. Snow, as there's no way in Hell I could say that bullshit with a straight face.

eta: two more quotes:
James Madison, in Federalist Papers No. 47: "The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, selfappointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."
Morpheus: "I imagine you feel like Alice, tumbling down the rabbit hole."
I forgot one of my fave driving CDs--American Idiot by Green Day.
Billie Joe Armstrong, mmm.
