Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

I am still hoping that the Obama girls will go to public school, as Amy Carter did. Signed, Daughter, Grand-daughter, Great-grand-daughter, etc., of public school teachers who is appalled at the way the US of A has allowed public schools to falter.

I have an appointment at 10 a.m., which meant that I'm still at home. My DH biked the dog into her daycare this a.m. using the new puppy trailer [link]

He just called to say that she settled down for the ride, but he's not sure we won any points with her.

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

How could a pet not think riding in that is awesome?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

On the one hand, yes. On the other hand, I think it may be easier for them personally to be in a school where the students are blasé about political celebrities (Sidwell, Holton, etc).

Well, it was through DC traffic, not a ride in the country. We'll see if she can be persuaded to ever jump in again.

I'm agreeing, but still really hoping for the public school. Secondarily, it would avoid the whole limo-liberal tag.

From the "They say she helps the homeless and doesn't eat meat - we have a problem with her" department:

Roy Brown: I am not and have never been a vegetarian

Republican gubernatorial candidate Roy Brown indignantly denies being a vegetarian and accuses Democrats of promulgating a smear campaign against him:

"I am not and have never been a vegetarian," Brown said. "I am disgusted by the baseless allegation that I am a vegetarian and that my personal eating habits should somehow be construed as opposed to the economic interests of Montana's livestock industry."[Billings Gazette]

Brown admits that he and his family temporarily cut down on meat and dairy products 25 years ago, but only because they were caring for a dying relative who couldn't tolerate these delicacies.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Well, they don't go to public school now, so I'm not sure they will in DC, either.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just started reading that big Newsweek series, and it's really too bad I'm supposed to be working today!

Trust my rage

jesse, is there more? Because I was loving what I read earlier this week.

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

is there more?

Everything but the last chapter is up now. This is good, because I was feeling a definite lack of frantically hitting refresh now that the election is over.
