They say they were being intimidated by the twelve riot cops (and standard Secret Service presence).
It's not exactly Kent State. Seems like everybody is pretty calm and orderly.
Yesterday, my life's like, 'Uh-oh, pop quiz!' Today it's like, 'rain of toads.'

[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.

You can't reason with tea party people. They make insane troll logic look reasonable.

Well, I'm sympathetic to the concern over the debt, but I think there's a lot of overheated rhetoric. I also wonder where all these people were when GWB and the Republican senate and house were running up the deficit with Medicare part D, tax cuts with no offsetting spending cuts, all while funding a war.
I really don't understand where all the "Obama is taking away our freedoms" stuff comes from. The worst thing I can think of is the individual mandate on health insurance. I'm not thrilled about that either, but I understand how it needs to be there to offset the cost of consumer protections.

Bonus theme song for his next show, too. My mom couldn't believe it when my brother and I were kids and old Cal was still selling cars that same way. Some obnoxious music(that still sticks in your head, same anything-but-a-dog Spot.

Still alive. Hour 28. The movers are cool, just real slow. Two guys, both in 50's. Um. Ok. I'm first on truck. He has 5 other pickups. Likely take a week to get to ca. I'm going to lightly clean this place (fuck the deposit, it wasn't much), and get a hotel room. Shower. Pull the blackout curtains. And sleeeeeep. When I wake up, I'll jump on the road.

Good plan, omnis!
