Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Not the cat, because then the cat will run everything. (Bush/Cheney = Dog/Cat.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

No, not the cat. In the dog's perfect world, probably the couch -- but then that brings out the real problem with the dog running for office, which is, well, running.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

In 2004, LJ-based fandom had presidential elections. It was awesome, though I don't remember who ended up winning. But people proposed their own candidates -- Boromir and Faramir, Lex and Lionel Luthor, etc.

That was fun. Someone should do it again.

I'd completely forgotten about that, Dana! Good times.

Punishingly Intricate

again, I am lisa.

Sorry! Fortunately I brought some nuts with me for afternoon snack (also some chocolate) because I predicted this would happen.

So the dog is Fred Thompson?

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

In the dog's perfect world, probably the couch

Or a convenient leg.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I brought clementines, but I think I want something carby.

Well, he was born in Tennessee.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I can't explain it, but this building is totally awesome: Mitsubishi's elevator-testing tower

Mitsubishi has erected a tall, skinny, hollow tower filled with elevator shafts for testing high-speed lifts:

The 173m-high (567ft) structure is called Solae and dominates the skyline of Inazawa City...

The 5bn-yen ($50m;£25m) project will allow Mitsubishi to test new drives, gears, cables and other lift systems.
