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

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Gas here is just hitting $2.67 and that's at the new station that's trying to woo us away from the competition. It's still $3.49 down on the reservation, twenty minutes away, which is what I mean when I talk about institutional racism.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Note to event hosts: when someone asks what they can bring, saying "anything" isn't that helpful to either of us! Especially when we don't know each other. If I show up with a bag of Doritos, will that be tacky next to your hors d'oeuvres? Etc.

Ann, that's a ferret.
In real life, when people start spouting the crazy most other people back away and they end up ranting to themselves. But with the layers of distance provided by letters to the editor or the internet, they can be heard and even have people attempt to engage them in conversation.
And on the Internet, you can't see the people backing away.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
A couple of days ago the prices were back to higher in the city ($3.15 & up) and lower in the suburbs ($3.03 & up).
I'm looking over my sample ballot so I can do the early voting thing. There are 80+ judges! Yikes. And didn't we do Water Reclamation Commissioners during the primary election?

Here are some great photos from Obama's stop in Chester, PA, in the rain yesterday.

I cannot believe I haven't posted this before! Taken in July, by my office, which is in a really snooty part of town (aka, a part of town where I would have bet good money they had never even heard of MC Hammer): [link]

That's awesome, Steph.
OK, this is so dorky, I can only share it with you people: So I'm listening to my favorite word-nerd podcast, and they have this word game segment, which this week is about words that you add "up" or "down" to to make different phrases. One of the answers was "get," and one of the hosts starts going, "Get up, get-get-get down, 9-1-1's a joke in your town." So of course the other people on the show were like, bzuh? And Grant was like, "It's Public Enemy..." Which just confirms why it's my favorite word-nerd podcast.
The end.
