"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

I read Barack Obama's speech on race. It made me cry. Damn, he's good.

Me too. I'm sitting here with a kleenex. Man, he's so... good.

ETA: And I like that he didn't back away from Wright -- he gave a coherent explanation of what's wrong with the things he's been quoted for, but also explained that, where is it... "The fact that so many people are surprised to hear that anger in some of Reverend Wright's sermons simply reminds us of the old truism that the most segregated hour in American life occurs on Sunday morning." Damn right.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am annoyed that my SSN endes with 92, because I am in the last batch of electronic deposits. I also think the whole thing is dumb, but I still want my $600.

FnL: FNL's myspace says that they are coming back for season 3. - no other details.

Goddamnit, why can't I get a simple yes or no answer? I keep getting a non-answer, ahrg.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

You know, despite the fact that I'm not a big believer in the "stimulus" package, I'm quite annoyed that, although I filed in early February, I'm in the last batch to receive a check.

Isn't this just because the people that paid or received electronically are going to get theirs electronically?

Trust my rage

I think it sucks that I have to pay AND get my money last. Not fair!

This might be stupid but where do you find out when you receive your check? And how much it will be? I feel like I should know this!

I know! Though I guess it just gives me more time to come up with something to spend it on that carries a good whiff of "IN YOUR FACE GWB" to it. Might be donations, might be tattoos. Maybe I'll get gay married.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Isn't this just because the people that paid or received electronically are going to get theirs electronically?

Well, I doubt that if you paid by credit card, you'll get a credit to that. I didn't see any place on my "owe" form where I could have them debit my account directly.

Mostly, this just adds to my annoyance that you can't pay for free unless you pay by check, so that's actually why I'm in the last batch.

Taxes just annoy me this year. California wouldn't let me file electronically for free since I was only a part-year resident. So I'm still waiting for my refund from them as well. Which wouldn't be so bad if they didn't take eight weeks to process returns.

Crap, I haven't done my taxes yet. I usually do them much earlier. I guess that is this weekend's task.
