Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

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

My polls are open 7 am to 8 pm.

That's what she said.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I did not know that was a law! I thought it was our big bosses being nice! Huh. Although, I don't know if 9-5 counts as "most." But when you add in a 1.5 hour commute like a lot of people have, and it gets tighter.

Georgia law also requires employers to give employees time to vote.

At this point tomorrow night, I may be soused.

Because books.

I did not know that was a law!

I didn't either, until they posted a notice about it on our time clock.

Just had another drama-free Devi-Loki encounter! Somewhat engineered, but Loki lipped Devi and neither cared!

Someday, sometime, I won't feel compelled to report this. Until then, sorry David.

Ah, so our big bosses are being nice, since work technically ends at 5, so there are 4 hours until the polls close at 9. And there is no law that applies to our Indiana office.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

ION, billytea should know that the Shedd aquariaum is having two weeks of free admission in honor of the 75th birthday of an Australian lungfish.

I think it's very good of them to have a birthday for the one fish they have that could blow out the candles on its cake.

And now: echidna babies! [link]

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Montpelier is the only state capital that doesn't have a McDonald's. McDonald's *tried* to get in there, but Montpelier told them to fuck off.

I'm sorry, that's just wrong.

Oh, I *love* it! It's just so very Vermont.

I am suprised to learn how many states close voting at 7

Indiana and Kentucky close at 6. No shit. And I don't think they had early voting.

Note to the government: if you want it to be a truly *participatory* democracy, make it easier to actually PARTICIPATE, motherfuckers!
