We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

With oil prices down and no money from the U.S. government, things go bad quickly and they're back to subsistence hunting.

Hey, now. I love my home state, and I have no wish to make my mom start bowhunting. Can't we just get them to throw Palin and the Good Ol' Boys network (aka Stevens, Young, et al.) out?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Is it really a special election? I thought the gov just appointed someone in such cases.

My students today kept asking me what will happen with Prop 8. They were really concerned about it. I had to keep reminding them I'm not a lawyer.

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

I think the gov appoints someone until a special election can be held. So, both. (Although my question earlier today was whether it's the same procedure in all states, or if it's more like ::handwave handwave passive voice:: Someone Is Appointed until the special election.)

Alaska changed from the gov being able to appoint someone after a gov appointed his daughter (I think).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Maybe I'll apply for a job in the new administration? It's a pretty short form! [link]

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 think I'll apply for the position of Coordinator of Cat-related Activities. I can do that until they create the Department of Cats for me....

I think I'll apply for the position of Coordinator of Cat-related Activities.

I think that job has quite the vetting process.

Really? I was thinking of just filling out the application, and under "Qualifications" I was gonna put, "I like cats."

It's sort of awesome that there's a website for the transition.
