Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That reminds me, there was an article on the CNN website about why Obama isn't hurting in the polls despite being a giant nerd. [link]

My pet theory is that a large number of people don't readily equate "black" with "pointy headed intellectual" so we were able to sneak in a smart one. It's similar to the "Clinton sounding like a bubba" effect. The Dems could write a book called Making Prejudice Work for YOU!

And it doesn't hurt that they're both sort of sexy.

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

Who was the last sexy Republican president? Teddy Roosevelt?

Who was the last sexy Republican president? Teddy Roosevelt?

I don't know about sexy, but maybe the most bad-ass president. Dude took a bullet and still delivered a ninety minute speech.

ita, when my daughter's car got broken into the insurance covered the entire replacement cost of the window. Being broken into is different than having an accident.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Being broken into is different than having an accident.

I'll be out $250 at most. About $250 more than I want to spend. Three ER visits.

AFL-CIO Mailer Touts Obama On Guns, Jobs

Huh. It's a picture of this big, tough-looking guy, with a caption that says, "I want to protect two things: MY JOB AND MY GUN. That's why I'm supporting Barack Obama."

We have tv commercials here in Colorado "I'm a member of the NRA and I support Barack Obama. McCain wants to send jobs overseas, so he sucks". Or something like that.
