Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Here's a summary of all the issues.

Let me explain. No, too long. Let me sum up.

Still pretty long, huh?

Internet magically came back on again overnight, but the cable guy was still out here at 9:30. Hmmph. At least I was home anyway, and would have been awake even without the 8-10 block because of a phone call.

bon, that video was truly charming. What a lovely laugh.

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

It's prominently posted on the voting machines that the votes don't count.

That's so poetically...something.

Always Anti-fascist!

I think maybe the squirrel had good taste. Of course, I know Boortz only as one of The Worst Persons In The World.

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

Florida Secretary of State Sue Cobb said she didn't expect serious problems Tuesday.

"History has shown that the machines are far more accurate than paper so we're quite confident in it," Cobb said. "There is absolutely no reason to believe that there will be any security issues, any hacking going on."

What history is she looking at?

The one that's written by the winners?

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

The one that's written by the winners?

Yeah. And the large corporations that support them.

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

Okay, I vote that Florida doesn't get any more Secretaries of State.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Most of the time Neil Boortz drives me crazy, but at least he's appalled by the the influence of the religious right. He won't talk about abortion, except to say he's pro-choice and there's no point arguing about it. He won't allow anyone to rant about the "gay lifestyle" unless they can describe, in detail, the moment they chose to be heterosexual.

He can sometimes be the worst person in the world, though.

Okay, I vote that Florida doesn't get any more Secretaries of State.

This gave me the most hilarious idea.... a public official exchange program! Your official operates their thing in another state for a month, and that state's official comes to you.

So much potential for badness, but I bet it would open some people's eyes.
