Conversation on the way home last night...
Me: I'm a little worried that Bush might try to invade Iran.
JZ: Yeah, because the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are going so well.
Emmett: Doesn't he have to get the approval of Congress before he goes to war?
Me: [blah blah Constitution]
Emmett: Yeah, I know. I've read the Constitution.
Me: [?]
Emmett: I got a little one as a stocking stuffer last year.
Me: Well, there is some leeway for the President to take military action without Congressional approval if there's an emergency. It's just that Bush has abused that liberty quite a bit.
Emmett: Pfft. Bush's idea of an emergency is, "I can't open the pickle jar!"
Maybe he'll go into politics someday, Hec.
Let's hope there'll be a country around for him to take part in.
My cute suitcase with the pink stars all over it is broken.
So I just bought myself a Nightmare Before Christmas rolling duffle off ebay. It is verra cute! And it has Zero on it!
Some fucko called my house at 5:30 this morning and I have been in full on crank mode ever since. I think I am just going to stay in for the rest of the day to spare me from people and spare people from me.
OK, watching this horrible movie on tv. The Day After Tomorrow. Cataclysmic climate change. Giant week long blizard. New York has been abandoned for three days and there is already a roving band of wolves. Three days.
Heh. Trudy, ND says the funniest part about that horrible movie is the SKEEERY MIST! OOO, THE SKERRY FREEZING MIST!
that apparently can be stopped by
shutting the door
I don't know
giant ocean liners navigating NYC streets
was really funny too. DH and I think it is the funniest disaster movie ever!
and its really nice that Randy Quaid (or is it Dennis? Its the cute Quaid) is
rushing to his son's side... but what is he going to do when he GETS there?
It's a Very Strong
Door
, you know.
