ION, kids these days! I just told my new minion she needed to work on being here at 9, and she said, "But I was here at 9:06!" Dude, is that 9? No it is not! I would rather have heard that she was sitting on a stalled train for 10 minutes, which I'm guessing was actually the case.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Which is why I really liked Obama's statement.
Plus it's absolutely consistent with his position in the primary vis-a-vis his family.
Much better to stick with men, whose penises never get them into trouble and who aren't meant to stay home with the family.
We just need to make sure they don't have a "wide stance" before we choose them. Oh, and I was going to say "Shouldn't that be REPUBLICAN men?", but I'd forgotten all male Democrats aren't real men, so it would have been redundant.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Heh.
Gingrich's point about Palin being commander in chief of the Alaska National Guard has been echoed throughout the GOP. In fact, even Cindy McCain pointed out -- rightly enough -- that Alaska is across the Bering Strait from Russia and so Palin, by deduction, has been on the front lines of the Cold War . . . had it not ended in 1989.
Still, you have to admit that in all that time, especially since Palin became governor about two years ago, no Russian invasion force has come across the strait, maybe because she was in charge of the Guard, maybe because she herself is a hunter and an athlete. The record is unclear because no high-ranking Russian appeared on any of the weekend talk shows to say how they had considered an invasion of Alaska and then backed off when Sarah Palin became commander in chief of the Alaska National Guard. Who could blame them?

Well, it's Monday and even though I am now enjoying the comforts of air conditioning I'm still feeling sticky.
Also, my eye - which I accidentally poked with a doublepointed needle, is more painful than normal but not as painful as you'd think. I'm going to my eyedoctor tomorrow AM. (The earliest appt was this afternoon but this afternoon does not work for me.)

It's worse than a monday. It's a Tuesday. I spent 30 minutes reading email about all the CRAP that happened over the weekend. And that was skimming. Now to clean up.

I'd make fun of this as a category for world records, but the pictures of the girl are just too cute....
