When someone came to tell me all of this today, I started cackling evilly and slumped over my desk. (To be honest, I'd like to be the one to succeed my boss in the next few years. Just don't know if I have the guts for it. Or the bureaucracy. I still clench up in my current job.)
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I watched the whole thing, Jesse. I guess I wish I hadn't, but I'd have had to miss the whole thing to be okay.

For a hundred bucks, I would totally do the helicopter thing at least once. Maybe on a trip where I scored a really good airfare and can handwave it that way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, it's too bad it's for my trip TO Vegas. Maybe I'll have extra money on my way back!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I just watched GA, and yeah, not really an ita friendly show.

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

I just realized that Gud's "some people need to chill the fuck out" statement was directed at me. I wasn't talked about McCain. I was talking about the things that the people in that video I linked to were saying. I think McCain is probably terrified of the craziness he and Palin have unleashed, which is why he backed away from the mess he's been making today. But I do think that the way he and Palin have been talking about Obama has mobilized a group of people holding some very ugly opinions about Obama, not to mention the rest of America.
Anyway, if you were confused, I don't think McCain is a radical. I think he's an opportunist willing to say just about anything that will get him elected. And I think that he just today realized that he was crossing a line.
