I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Is now the time to start in with "I love LA?"

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Did you want me to pick up the space shuttle tub toys?
Me? Oh yes, please! Let me know how much and I'll paypal it to you.

Aha. Ish. I looked again and the page I'd found was talking about the weight values as votes, so I withdraw that part. But don't understand what billytea is saying about the veto. This is what I read:

A player has veto power if the combined weight of all the other players does not meet the quota.

I still don't see how anyone has veto power in the scenario. Although the question states that someone does, which is why I am confused now, I guess. I think the quota is 57; that's the smallest possible winning number.

You realize you're going to have to report back and explain the answers when you've got them.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Is anyone watching The Street, on BBCA? It's a six-part miniseries, each episode taking place in a different house on the same street in Northern England, and the stories overlap somewhat. Jim Broadbent, Jane Horrock, Timothy Spall and assorted other terrific actors kicking Thespia's ass very well-written scripts. We are really liking it, but I don't seem to know another soul who is watching it.
