Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm watching PBS coverage after watching the debate on C-Span. Did any of the networks have them on split screen the whole time?

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

Every time McCain acts like Obama is an idiot who doesn't understand or pay attention or would be surprised...

Does ANYBODY buy that? Anybody at ALL think the man is less than really really fucking smart?

Aaand we're back to autism = down sydndrome

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hil, he wasn't talking about intensive training and conditional certification. They shouldn't have to bother with certification at all. It's unfair.

I'm watching off and on, and didn't see the remark that prompted this, but that sounds like how Teach For America works -- about six weeks of intensive training over the summer, and then start teaching with conditional certification.

No, it wasn't (to my understanding) like Teach for America. I'll go back and find it later.

What's the snorty little smartass "I got it" comment? The fuck? Dude, you can't pull of Palin's schtick, I'm sorry.

Just stick them in the classroom with no training?

Please reassure me it isn't mean to shut MK in the bathroom for the night. It's the only way I'll be able to leave him with food and drink the other cats won't consume. (I've had to sit next to him fending them off.) I'd shut him in the bedroom with me, but then I'd have to shut one of the others in the bathroom and they are yellers and diggers and no one would sleep. He'll be all...yeah...huh...what? OK, food, bed. Good.

I only have so many doors.

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

I'm not watching the debate.

Has anyone heard this? From Wonkette: JESUS FOX NEWS, COULD YOU AT LEAST TRY?:

“Colin Powell showed off his hip-hop moves at an ‘Africa Rising’ celebration in London Tuesday, fueling speculation that the former secretary of state is about to endorse Barack Obama for president.” Well you can’t argue with that kind of logic! [Fox News]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think MK will be happy to have his own food supply and a quiet room in which to sleep sleep sleep. Cats like to sleep.

Bathroom might be the kindest place for him tonight -- I know you want him to be with you, but he'll have the right food and a cushy place and some quiet.
