Maybe it depends on how much mayonnaise is used?

Oh, I meant that I would always assume tuna salad is worse, because of all the mayo.

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday shrift!

No worries. The candidates will have been chosen by then. At least in the press.

Haven't they already been chosen in the press? I mean the Democrats who jump through the requisite hoops?

For those of you tired of being pursued for your vote, move to DC! nobody cares how you vote

You want to feel like your vote doesn't matter? Be a Democrat in Utah. There are factions here who have to think long and hard about whether claiming Democrat as your party is the same as worshiping Satan and working for the active promotion of puppy kicking.

I was told not to put a Hilary sticker on my car because the car would get trashed. There's a store downtown where you can get a bumper sticker with Hilary's face with a bull's eye printed over it.

t hugs board and sanity tight

Ha! Remember that stupid I-35 "purity siege"? Turns out they already hit Dallas, and one of the bars not too far from it (where I spend every gay pride parade because I can sit at the little round window and make friends with the people in line outside.

Fifty or so young people have gathered on Oak Lawn Avenue, positioning themselves on the sidewalk outside of JR’s Bar and Grill, one of many nightclubs found in this neighborhood, which is well-known for its large population of homosexuals.

Yes. Yes, it is. Bless it! (though that's probably not what they mean)

See?!! THis is what I mean. I had no idea the primary was next month. I just voted in...um...this fall. And AGAIN?!!

You know, I think I might vote for Richardson in the primaries. Not a snowball's chance in hell, so why not? He's turned out to be a not-bad governor (which is really all you ask in NM), and certainly knows his way around the international scene in a constructive way... I don't agree with him on the pulling troops out in a year, but....snowball. Hell.

Dammit.

We're not approved for the full amount, not on an unsecured loan, and since we don't own our house and our cars are 10 and 12 years old, we don't have any collateral. The woman I spoke to said she'd resubmit and see if we could get the amount of any or all of our three higher-rate cards (we have a total of five, but two have a relatively sane rate), but, dammit, I wanted one definite monthly payment with an end date on the calendar I could point to when we'd be out of debt forever.

I feel like the banking industry has declared me a worthless, irresponsible piece of shit, and it's not TRUE! Dammit, we could so DO this if only someone would give us a chance! We're not bad, evil people, and we're not irresponsible! We made mistakes, but we've learned from them. We're smart and hard-working and have good jobs, and dammit, we deserve a second chance!

So angry. Crying so hard.

Susan, if it makes you feel any better, the whole credit market is a lot tighter now because of the subprime mess....
