What about members of Al Qaeda endorsing McCain? It wasn't just one member - a number of al Qaeda members met and reached consensus that they should endorse McCain.
Oh, it turns out they were using "reverse psychology."
Zoe: Jayne. This is something the Captain has to do for himself. Mal: No! No, it's not!

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

Happy birthday, Aurelia!
I'm trying to decide if I want to go to Grant Park on Tuesday or if I just want to go home, order pizza, and drink vast quantities of alcohol while obsessively watching the news and refreshing websites.

I'm not sure myself. Grant Park would be all "history being made blah blah blah," but I'm not sure if I'll be in the mood to be around that many people.
Maybe we could all have a drunken watch-n-post....

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I will be online Tuesday night at least for a while. And probably quasi-drunk. Which might affect whether I actually go to the rehearsal I have that night.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I really want to go down there, but I'm afraid I'll be working late enough that I won't be able to get near the place. I'm also afraid I'll freeze.

The high on Monday is supposed to be 67. (I haven't seen a forecast for Tuesday.) But still, that's a week away.

I don't work that far away from Grant Park, but I'm going to be anxious all day and being in a ginormous crowd may not be the best idea.
If I go home, I will have booze and also Jon and Stephen. And the ability to stop watching election coverage if I need a breather.

Not sure how I'd swing it if I lived in Chicago, but I am pretty sure I'd try and be down there with mac.
As it is I am having an early dinner with my brother and two highschool friends that I have not seen in 21 years, then coming home and getting mac to bed as fast as possible so I can watch and post.
ION - mac is OBSESSED with I Love Rock N Roll (thank you Guitar Hero) - he is butt naked with the cordless guitar on right now jumping around and trying to remember the lyrics. I'd be tempted to get video, but for the naked part.

I am floored by the fact that my health-conscious vegetarian cousin has never had pomegranate seeds before (I bought one the other day and was passing a bowl of them around at the office). It made sense to me last year when I brought a white dragonfruit in to share (I'd never seen one before either), but are pomegranates really that unusual?
