From The Stephen Colbert Wiki page:
On October 14, 2007, Stephen wrote Maureen Dowd's column in the New York Times, where, among poking fun at Frank Rich and several presidential hopefuls, he stated he would run for president for the sum of 15 million dollars.
On the October 16, 2007 episode of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Colbert announced "he is officially considering whether or not he will announce if he is running for President of the United States", and would make his announcement "on a more prestigious show". Fifteen minutes later, he announced his candidacy on The Colbert Report.
Colbert will run in the state of South Carolina as a Democrat, a Republican, and a Favorite Son of South Carolina.
Steph and I are the same wrt water. Regular water is just so boring - unless I'm sweating.
The Stephanies are in full agreement. I hate regular water, but I LOVE fizzy water. Giant has lime flavored sparkling water for 45 cents per liter. I buy it by the case.
For a moment, I pictured Tom picking up 2 live chickens.
Me too.
Soda water tastes bitter to me, not at all like regular water, now with added bubbles.

See, I drink lots of water. But then, I suppose it's because it's pretty bloody hot here, and it was in Egypt, and hydration is my friend. I honestly can't remember whether I used to drink as much water back in the UK - maybe not. Hmm.
Nora, do they dispatch the chickens for you or do you have to do that yourself? I'm hoping that service is included in the price of the bird.
They do indeed dispatch the chickens for us. However, Tom was still relatively traumatized by butterflying one and disassembling the other at home- even though those are both pretty much SOP around these parts, the size and the wicked total freshness made it a little gorier than usual.
I've already told you all my headless chicken anecdote, right?

This is me. However, I do like the faintly fruit-flavored fizzy waters, as that cuts the bitter.
I just had another horrible phone call with the bank, only this conversation ended in me screaming at them that TCF "SUCKS A BIG ONE!"
Aimee, after reading your LJ, I can't believe they aren't falling all over themselves to apologize to you. (Well, I'm not *surprised*, but they should be.) Assholes!
