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

PICTURES!

ahem.

Wouldn't it be weird if there was a polling company that just... made up their poll results?

Well, possibly that is what happened. Or possibly not. Anyway, Nate Silver and others have been on the case recently. Here's a good summary: [link]

One little tidbit - the polling company has claimed to have a number of offices around the country. Guess what - every address for these offices is actually a box at a UPS store. Weird, huh?

Gah, I drew 24 illustrations today and laid them out as two foldable booklets. I am really about ready to have a weekend that's not all spent at the office.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

mac's childcare for today called me yesterday EVENING today enough kids had not signed up. WTF!?!?! So I was gonna log in from home and work, but I can't get my remote access to work. Now I am taking the computer in to get it looked at and working, grabbing some work and coming back home. I am also gonna hope for an afternoon nap. STupidly I emailed my boss the situation last night instead of just calling in sick today.

That's bonkers. I remember just having a couple of kids on odd no-school days when I worked at the afterschool place. They just had fewer of the part-time people around.

yeah, I think I have to talk to someone. I mean, sure, I had not signed him up until Saturday, but I kinda feel by then that they should have made the yay or nay call already. Still, not the end of the world, just inconvenient.

ION, I got mac Walter the Farting Dog yesterday and we read it last night. good times.
