I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

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 your mom's socks.

NBC is calling PA for Obama

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

CNN is calling like twelve states that have just closed, with eight for Obama.

This exit poll thing is total bullshit, isn't it?

ABC is projecting that Obama will carry Pennsylvania and New Hampshire.

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

CT, DC, DE = Obama

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

NYT also has a nice pop-up that shows who is calling what for whom. They are virtuously not calling anything; everybody else is.

That may be a budgetary move rather than an ethical one; they're buried in debt.

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

Huh. Somewhere I read that if Obama wins PA, it's pretty much over for McCain. Was that from fivethirtyeight?

NPR just uttered Penn for Obama.

Scrapple Power Is Go!

So...despite Katrina, Iraq, Afghanistan and a billion other things, I don't think Obama would win this election if there hadn't been a financial collapse a month ago.
