Hope on Prop 8
I like this quote: It will have to be litigated but we will prevail.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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

CNN is still saying MO is too close to call, but leaning to McCain. The difference seems to be 6,000 votes.

I'm cheering myself up by watching the French news. Given that it is not a "smiley" culture, it's nice to see the obvious glee of those reporting on the elections.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Michelle's dress was fine; it was the wrap that effed everything up.
Now I just want people to stop comparing Obama to JFK. That did not end well!
Happy birthday, CaBil!

I know, right??
Among all the other firsts, Obama is the first Chicago politician ever to be elected President.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I can't say I particularly noticed Michelle Obama's dress last night. But generally she seems to have a Jackie Kennedy vibe about her. An elegance that seems all the more elegant because it's natural and unforced.
I want to be excited about Obama. I really do. But I remember getting excited about Clinton in 1992 and how disappointing that turned out to be. As well as (though I was too young to vote then) Carter in 1976. So I'll wait and see what Obama actually does before getting excited.

It just seems odd to me that you can amend the constitution with a simple majority.
I know! It makes no sense.

I predict: MO to McCain, NC to Obama.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I know! It makes no sense.
Yeah. What if this issue remains contentious for a decade or so? What if folks in CA keep having new propositions, sometimes allowing gay marriage, sometimes disallowing it?
Stuff like this is why (in general) people make constitutions hard to amend!

My Dad is turning 60 tomorrow. I already sent him a present, but does anyone know of a good source for free non-annoying e-cards?
