Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I have voted. The DH and I waded through the California propositions over the weekend, and only had to agree to disagree on one or two if I remember correctly.

And, 1a-e are not taxes -- they're bond measures to borrow the money, and the payments will be made out of the general fund. Theoretically, taxes can't be raised in the future to make the payments. (Insert children crying, "You're mortgaging our future!" here.)

I voted some yes, some no on 1a-e.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

(Ok, Ball of Confusion is on the radio right now, and I keep seeing the teachers from SNL in my mind.)

Our wings are not tired.

I have voted. Now I want the final results. Heavy turnout around here apparently. Don't know what it means, but I am always for heavy turnout.

Every year I want to start a grassroots movement to vote "no" on all propositions all the time. Just because I think it's turned out to be such a dreadful way to legislate and it should stop.

Then I spend hours trying to parse the language because I can't stop caring.

What is the alternative?

We didn't have propsitions in CT. Oddly, we expect our legislators to do the work they were paid for. and guess what? the wrote laws that didn't get overturned by the court - something to do with not writting laws that are unlawful.

We did vote on town budgets and amendments

Well, how would that make it better? Wouldn't that get crappy laws like this parental notification thing passed?

I know we have a lot of Roomba owners, but does anyone have a Scooba? We are thinking about getting one for my mom and wanted to get some feedback.
