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

In Utah we saw tons of Obama signs.
I live in the reddest area of the reddest state, and there are a few McCain/Palin signs and bumper stickers. But there are also Obama signs and bumper stickers, and for the first time in my memory, the Utah Republican Committee is running radio ads touting how wonderful it is to be a Republican. Not for a candidate, just for the Republican party. Apparently inroads from "that party" are occurring in various races, and the Powers that Be are feeling a tad twitchy.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Siegfried and Roy are tiger trainers. Are they hot?

I think at one time they were kinda attractive. Long time ago.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
I think we need a spa weekend. We can write it off.
yes, please.
I'm surrounded by poopie-heads at work. It's sad to think they are teaching the next generation.
Why don’t I travel everywhere by gothed-out hot air balloon? Why am I not accompanied by a perpetual Danny Elfman-penned soundtrack? Why am I not greeted everywhere I go by women in fanciful costumes twirling fiery…thingies…to say nothing of being greeted with open arms by Winona Ryder?
I ask myself these questions ALL THE TIME. Well, not the one about Winona Ryder.
In this, Jilli is me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
They've found that in the water people and tigers are on a more equal footing

This is a wonderful tribute to Obama's grandparents, and includes a photo of them as young people which shows how much Obama looks like his grandfather (and helped me see his resemblance to his mother, as well).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
There's a klezmer band playing on the street, right outside my building.
Fun!

Of course not.
I just had the worst black humor conversation with my mother. We were dying laughing, and it was SO WRONG. But so right.

What a great piece, Kathy.
Speaking of dark humor, I'm loving the Daily Show bit on the Real America, sitting as I do Well Outside Real America.
