Every time I read "Poland," the Bette Midler line about her husband always flashes in my head: "I married a German boy, a Kraut. Every night, I dress up like Poland, and he invades me."
Excuse me? Who gave you permission to exist?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
So, what happens now that Gonzales has been exposed as a lying incompetent? I mean, do what happens if he's exposed as a lying incompetent but he still doesn't resign and Bush doesn't fire him? Do we just go on with our lives and agree to never talk about it again? (At least until Bush's executive privilege claims wind through the courts?)
The alternative would be impeachment. (Impeachment can apply to any Federal officer.) The Democrats have made no pledges about impeachment being "off the table" when it comes to the office of the Attorney General. Maybe they could look upon it as a warmup.

The only true cheese doodle is the Wise cheese doodle, which I can only get when I'm back east. Oh, I'd been lured into the clutches of the Cheeto, but that was only because of my long, Western exile. I'd forgotten the truth path, until my sojourn in the mystic East some years back. And then I remembered.
Our reunion was brief, but memorable. I smuggled a bag back to my Western fastness. It was soon gone--and not shared with my husband, no matter how he pouted.
Perhaps someday I'll return to the land of my forefathers and greet the Wise doodle again.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
My Dad sent me this [link] to a 20-minute video on Google with this comment:
It's a wonderful use of computer graphics to demonstrate both substantive information and the potential for using this mode of presentation to enhance learning.
The caption on the Google page puts it this way:
With the drama and urgency of a sportscaster, Hans Rosling debunks a few myths about the "developing" world. Rosling is professor of international health at Sweden's world-renowned Karolinska Institute, and founder of Gapminder, a non-profit that brings vital global data to life.
I liked it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMTG: I just saw an ad for "National Bingo Night" on ABC. Have we finally reached the bottom?

Now tagless for your comfort.
Have we finally reached the bottom?
We have. And apparently, someone's started to dig.

What is even happening?
Yes, and from beneath that, it devours.

Thrive to spite them
Aw the Pens got shut out. Sorry to see them out of the playoffs.
But on my greedy side I think this means Tampa's saturday game will be on NBC which means I get to see it in High Def! Whoo!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
