I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

...psst-- his wife's name is Thuy

Pfft. Like I need to be told that Thuy's beautiful. I saw the wedding photos.

Hello cats and kittens.

Just wanted to report that the voting seems to be going well. I currently have about 85 votes.

I think, the same way you get a receipt stub when you really vote, I'm going to send "vote received" messages to everyone I've heard from. I can't do that now, but I want to make sure there are no lost ballots. I'll post a message when I'm getting underway with the receipts, and when I'm done, so you can know to worry ;) if you haven't heard from me.

P.S. It might be a good idea to build a receipt function into whatever voting mechanism we eventually build.

Peace.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

P.S. It might be a good idea to build a receipt function into whatever voting mechanism we eventually build.

If you vote using the form, you get a copy of the ballot automatically cc'ed to you. Is that enough of a receipt, do you think, or do we need something more than that?

Oh, I wanted to ask about this. When I voted the email came to me showing my votes. Was that a duplicate or a mistake?
