Yargh. The house race in my district is currently at 49.86% vs. 50.14%. TOO MUCH CLOSE!!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
This is the slimy robocall I got: [link]
I'm watching Zoo Confidential on NGC Wild, which is sufficiently non-political that I can go lalala until it's Daily Show time....
I interupt this mature discussion about politics to bring you a photo of the obscene squash from today's CSA haul
Rude vegetables are never inappropriate!
...wait.
Denver initiative calls for Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission:
Colorado voters are not just considering new laws to cut taxes, declare that a person is created at conception and eliminate insurance mandates in the new health-care law. In Denver, they're voting on whether to protect themselves from extraterrestrial aliens.
Ballot Initiative 300 would require the city to set up an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission (extracampaign.org) stocked with astrobiologists and other PhD scientists to protect residents from "potential encounters or interactions with extraterrestrial intelligent beings or their vehicles."
This is the slimy robocall I got:
Nice. The best we got were the guy who lied about having Morgan Freeman's endorsement and the guy who told his party's poll observers to photograph the license plates of all the brown people during the early voting period.
So, I have to say, because I can't anywhere else and life can be awesome and stupid all at the same time...This guy I knew back home who ran a club for all the freaks when we didn't really have a place in small town north La. killed himself yesterday. I'm not even...I don't know, just broke for everyone.
Yet another robocall on the answering machine. I already voted! We vote by mail! Most people have already voted! And I voted for goddamn Patty Murray, so leave me alone, you slimy fucking robocalling Republican PACs.
I'm sorry, Daisy Jane. How awful.
Oh, Daisy, how sad. I'm sorry.
