Ah good news, the county election office says I'm registered to vote, the secretary of state website appears to be incorrect.
That was scary. I was all "Dear gawd, they're disenfranchising midwestern married white guys now. Nobody's safe."
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

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

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
PHOTOS: Best Wild Animal Photos of 2008 Announced
This is my fave: [link]
Winner, "Animal Behavior: All Other Animals" Category
An aptly named winner of the 2008 Wildlife Photographer of the Year contest, "Deadlock" was captured in the dead of night in a Belizean rain forest.
U.K.-based David Maitland observed from midnight to 3 a.m. as a rare Morelet's tree frog doggedly refused to become supper for a cat-eyed snake--and still didn't see the conclusion.
"I would love to have seen them go their separate ways, but I was exhausted," the photographer said. "The frog was all the time trying to pull the snake off, but the snake just wouldn't let go.
"This frog is actually incredibly rare, which lends to the bizarre nature of the whole encounter," he said.
Photo #3 is especially sad:

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

Heh.
Did you hear the story about Palin's prank phone call.
It's pretty funny.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Dana! Are you watching the new season of Spooks? Did you watch Code 9? Did it suck?
I am so far behind on Spooks. t sigh
Someone will have to tell me if something really important happens on the puppycam. If I have it on while I'm working, no work actually gets done.

Sarah Palin goes all incoherent again:
"...there must be something about San Francisco and he because it’s like I heard on Fox News today, it’s like a truth serum where when he’s there, he seems to be more candid, and remember it was there that he talked about, there you go, the bitter clingers, the cling-ons, all of us, I guess, you know holding on to religion and guns and, um, so something about he being there in San Francisco.”

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
They don't think she meant Klingons??
I'm just voting after work tomorrow -- I haven't seen lines in my current place, but we'll see what happens tomorrow!
