Daily Kos says that more than 600,000 early votes haven't been counted in Georgia.
Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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
And, to make things sweeter, there was a big group of people laughing and crying together at 14th and U. Right near where the riots started in 1968.
Last night I passed where Malcom X was assassinated and where Dr. King was stabbed and stood at the feet of Adam Clayton Powell Jr.'s statue watching the acceptance speech. I think there was as much weeping as cheering and sometimes you couldn't tell the difference.
There were lots of police and their silly orange nets but as soon as one party would get squished into a corner or dispersed someone else would pull a car over, crank the stereo, and the party would reform there.
I brought champagne, but since the police were so very very present and polite (and nobody else had busted out champagne) I decided to let it lie. Most of the cops were smiling.
You could feel waves of joy rolling down the street. Groups of people would start sing-alongs. Street musicians were everywhere. Cars were beeping in time to the chanting.

I damn near did make out with everyone last night! Mr. Jane and I listened to a MLK speech last night and I cried like a baby.
Dude. I almost can't believe it.

Oh my GOD, I hate stupid customer service people. I'm pretty articulate, I know how to explain things clearly. I have all of my information in front of me, account numbers and such. So, why do I have to explain THREE TIMES.

Yeah, Seattle had two major street parties going last night, one on Broadway - the main street of Capital Hill, the young/gay district, and one on Pike which connects Capital Hill to Downtown.
Apparently they ran past 1:30 am because as people left, others joined them.
Actually, a friend on LJ has photos in an unlocked post, so here you go - [link]
