I just finished reading that interview, Jilli! Utterly charming!
You have the emotional maturity of a blueberry scone.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I remember voting with my parents through most of nursery school and elementary school -- I definitely remember the '88 election. My dad would let me come in the voting booth with him, and he'd pick me up so I could reach and then point at which levers to pull. I was almost 8 at the '88 election, and old enough then to ask questions about who he was voting for and why. (I really liked pulling the lever and hearing all the gears in the machine move around. I was so disappointed when I was old enough to vote and they replaced all those older machines with electronic ones that just beeped.)
I was in sixth grade for the '92 election. We had a debate in class, and class polls every week or so, where we kept track of how our support was changing. After the first debate (which we were required to watch), we were pretty strongly for Perot.

Oh my gosh, I forget how young so many of y'all are. Or how old I am? Nope, I'm pretty sure I know I'm getting old.

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

Really great video, too. And a minor celebrity cameo!
Love! I didn't catch the cameo, though.
I just found the Windy City Chapter info. Their first event started a block from my apt!

Is anyone following the Anonymous/Project Chanology stuff? I'm fascinated. There are going to be so many soc papers based on this...

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
Ugh... I'm up and almost finished getting ready for today. Being at the school before 7am is awful! At least this time it is for a good cause (my students going to competition!) My stomach is knotted up, though. I don't think they realize I get nervous, too!
I fear it is going to be a long day, though.
4 hours until we perform...

Good luck to all the kids, GG! Drama Club almost singlehandedly saved my life and sanity in high school, literally.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My high school generally won our state drama competition...although I wasn't involved, except doing coat check and stuff some years. Fun!

But who does that to strangers on a train?
Right, cause everyone knows the only thing you do with strangers on a train is exchange murder scenarios.
