Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

“Not dead yet!”

OMG, I know it'll never last this way, but with 1% reporting in Florida, the MSNBC map read Obama 48%, McCain 34%.

Oh, frabjous day... (or moment).

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

VT goes to Obama. Are we shocked, or are we very shocked?

Well, based on the Wal-mart/Starbucks ratio...

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

I'm not shocked, but curiious. They're showing this result with, do I have this right, no precincts counted? I mean yeah, you pretty much could've called it a month ago, but on what are they basing it? Exit polls?

CNN says exit polls. The Times isn't calling anyone yet, and I am in love with their zoom-in-by-county map.

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

Ben & Jerry's sales.

CBS appears to be calling West Virginia for McCain. No big surprise there, though again without hard numbers to support it.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

They're being much more conservative this year about relying on exit polls, but in somewhere like VT, the exit polls won't even be close, so why not go with them?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Oh, Chris Matthews, shut the hell up.

That's nifty. I've added another website to my election watch.
