Ah good news, the county election office says I'm registered to vote, the secretary of state website appears to be incorrect.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

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

“Not dead yet!”
Okay, so the juror in the Sen. Ted Stevens trial who left, allegedly because of her father's death, lied because she was attending the Breeder's Cup races. Also, she's apparently nuts or a really good actor.
A juror who vanished during Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens' corruption trial told the judge Monday she lied about her father dying and flew to California to see horse races.
U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan ordered Marian Hinnant, identified as juror No. 4, to return to court to explain why she disappeared during jury deliberations. Hinnant brought a stack of handwritten notes with her to the court Monday along with public defender A.J. Kramer, and told the judge that her father hadn't died and she was at the Breeders' Cup in Arcadia, Calif.
She apologized for lying, and then started a long rambling story about horses, which included references to horse breeding, the Breeders' Cup, drugs, President Ford's son Steven and her condo in Florida being bugged.
"I am thoroughly convinced you would not have been able to continue to deliberate," Sullivan interrupted.
"Can I have a case of my own?" Hinnant asked. Sullivan referred her to Kramer and the federal public defender's office, and excused her from his courtroom.

"I am thoroughly convinced you would not have been able to continue to deliberate,"
This is easily the best translation I've ever seen of "What the fucking FUCK??!1!"

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 was scary. I was all "Dear gawd, they're disenfranchising midwestern married white guys now. Nobody's safe."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wonder why she 'fessed up. Better to seek forgiveness than permission, perhaps. But she'd already lied.
Dana! Are you watching the new season of Spooks? Did you watch Code 9? Did it suck?

I'm glad that it's all worked out now, Gud. Freaky glitches.
