Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The big Inaugural Foofooraw has a bonus side -- it has to be a poke in the eye to Bush that all of America seems so exciting about the New Guy.

I'm not sure if the most fitting exit for him would be a last-helicopter-out-of-Hanoi departure for his administration or else maybe just an old-fashioned tar, feather, and riding out of town on a rail for him and Cheney.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think the best way to escort Cheney out of office would be the Roman Ritual of Exorcism.

I'm guessing Cheney's exit will be confidential and then redacted from any records.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Someone remind me not to read the comments, especially on an article about Bush defending the government's response to Katrina.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Especially since Bush's comment on what he could have done better on Katrina basically is "have a better photo op".

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I only knew spondee because I was recently teaching it. Meter, that is, to my vocal student who wants to do songwriting. But it is a good word, isn't it?

Okay, natterers, if you don't talk more, I am going to have to work. Do you want that on your conscience?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

UPS rant! They delivered my new TV today (yay!) and had my neighbor sign for it (yay!) but can't tell me if the driver carried it upstairs to my door (good) or left it sitting in the lobby (BAD).

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My new doggie is coming tomorrow!

And I'm going to check out my new office, today.

I'm chewing peppermint gum to try and settle my stomach. I'm so nervous, yo.
