We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You know, I really don't CARE about politicians sex lives; what matters to me is the pure lying, sneaking and horribly ineffcient cover-ups that showcase a certain lack in the intellect department.

Pretty much this. I mean, I try to elect people I think can govern not people I think would make a good spouse.

I think I want to start a consulting business teaching politicians how to not use the internets.

They so need it. It's actually a big topic in local politics and I spend so much time shaking my head screaming, "You cannot do this. It's a very public medium!"

Also, didn't this same thing happen to Pete Wentz?

One of many reasons he can't run for elected office. Still, not bad for a dick shot. Those pictures are rarely aesthetically pleasing to me and his was.

Actually the Weiner shot wasn't unattractive for a dick shot. But I am displeased that it was his because I'd hoped he was smarter than that.

Honestly, I charitably attribute it to the Golden Rule -- many many guys would be happy to receive a random body pic, so why wouldn't they send one??

This. It's not a good idea still, but I can see how the bad decision can be made.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good job, Jesse!

Thank you.

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

But what female anatomy pic is going to obscure size with an absurd shot? No one's going to look at my tits and say "ooh she's got perky ones!" even if I shoot it from mars.

Goodness Consuela.

I would be tempted to go passive aggressive and pop my head in her office and say "you know, I think your email account is having some difficulty because I don't believe you are receiving some important email messages I have sent. I fear you are missing other important email messages as well. Have you been having difficulty?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wear a pushup bra. Squeeze them between your arms. There are lots of tricks.

True 'nuff.

And they're always talking about their balls. I'm sure there is some teense percentage of women who care but really, that's a pretty boy concern.

'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"

Ack! I'm also sorry about the Weiner news. (Even that sounds sadly funny.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I fear you are missing other important email messages as well. Have you been having difficulty?

I would do that, too, but instead of having a F2F conversation, I'd e-mail her and copy the IT department and her boss.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Here I am in the bout Saturday night!

Tempting, but no, it doesn't work. Nothing works. She in fact deletes email on purpose so that nobody can know what she's working on, or when. She never saves anything to the public/shared drives, either, so if you need something she's working on and she's not around, you're SOL. She outright lies about what she's doing and constantly misrepresents the status of her projects. She blames other people for her errors and undercuts the more junior staff she's supposed to be mentoring. At one point she had a bunch of project files hidden away in a locked cabinet so nobody else could access them and nobody could find out how much work she wasn't getting done.

But she reports to the division chief, not my boss, and he won't hear a word about her.

Which is another reason I cannot wait for the reorganization to be finished, when I can finally go up the chain of command and ask to have my projects redistributed because she's "Clearly too busy."
