Thrive to spite them

The Army hires private security guards?

They had a private firm handling the mail. This is the Bush Government and the Bushes don't like the government to employee people as government employees that do anything. They want private business to do the work.

I think both W and JEB! would be (or would have been in Jeb's case) much happier if the government was entirely run by corporations and they were the CEOs and didn't have to work about things like oversight, the Constiution, and voters.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Allyson is very pretty and should be on the teevee all the time.

Emily, what is your 2nd tat going to be? This affects placement. In my head, at least.

Connie, your employer sounds awesome.

If anyone ever goes to interior AK, I can hook you up with my mom - she's a private pilot, and can take you on aerial tours in a wee Cessna.

At Wiscon the ass antler tattoos were alternately referred to as tramp stamps. There was an impromptu fashion show where people were showing off theirs....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fucking A, I don't want to do any work. And yet? I must.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Just about the only way I would do a cruise would be with a big group of people I knew-- hmm. Off to email some meatspace people!

I've loved the way Allyson looked in every picture I've seen.

Dear Jon Stewart:

You do the snark and I do the snark. Let's snark together. Also, I have stories about the internet.

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

I had to look up Indigo children. Sounds like an excuse to be a brat.

Connie, your employer sounds awesome.

It's rather a nice change to have the expectation of professionalism matched with the expectation of professional treatment. My word, an employer who thinks I'm a grown up.
