Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Interesting profile on Emanuel in Fortune Magazine. I like that it starts with a burn of President Bush....tribathlete!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, Corwood, how scary!

from the Fortune story:

'You're not one of those tribathletes, are you, Mr. President? You know-steam, sauna, shower?'

awesome! I'm totally a tribathlete! Or, I would be given the resources.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes, Corwood! Stay in the house!!

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

Once the garbage truck passed, I decided I'd feel better with the kids at daycare and me at work, so we hurriedly loaded up and left around 10 ("Serpentine!," I told my 3-year-old on the way to the car, and he rightfully looked at me like I was nuts). But still: crazy! The cops had a shoot-out with a guy at our neighborhood grocery that's about ten blocks away!

Thanks! I just hate that I got up extra-early for work and thus missed out on the sweet, delicious sleep I could have been having instead of being all tense while I watched the backyard for guys with guns.
