Article that argues the the early deployment....
Okay, totally irrelevant to the article, but the Yorkshire Ranter page has this scrolling clock-date mouse pointer sprite. I only mention this because the day/month scrols around the outside of the clock, so at one point on the rotation, the month spells out backwards.
October backwards is "Rebotco," which sounds like a company that sells refurbished robots.
I'm picturing his opponent as an actual *goat,* or something.

Someone's yahoo IM noises are bugging me. Not the IMing (I'm here posting), but that little
zing
sound. I'm going to go throttle whoever it is if it doesn't stop soon. Who doesn't turn down their volume to cover their non-work related computer activities?

But if they gain the house they gain subpoena power and that could prove interesting. I wouldn't want them to use it just to embarrasses people, but I think there are plenty of legit things to investigate. From a fiscal restraint perspective have split control should be good. The Dems could also set up politically advantagous votes before the election.
Cute baby, reminds me that the chin gene's not gonna miss that kid.
