Yeah, we're rapidly approaching "Ascend already!" territory.
I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

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.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Y'all, b.org is where I first heard the news on 9/11 (versus someone calling me, or TV, or whatever).
I find it fitting that I heard about Bin Laden here as well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Um, given that it's been almost 10 years, isn't it possible he spent a bunch of that time in the remote caves, and we could just get him in the mansion outside Islamabad? I should be on CNN right now.

BWAH!
I may fold laundry to stave off death by boredom. And I freakin' hate folding laundry.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
OK, apparently Al Jazeera is saying he was killed in a mansion outside Islamabad. If that's true, I'm worried what it will mean to my sister-in-law's family.

Another friend on FB posted this:

I would very much like the statement to be : " and that's how we do it in Chicago, motherfucker. Joe, tell 'em how it went down."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
They have the body, and apparently they did DNA tests on the spot. Of course, I expect there to be a whole hullaballoo about it being a Bin Laden body double and it was faked on both the right in the U.S. and among terrorist groups.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
There's a (hypothetical) stream of the statement here, or at least there will be streaming, once the damn thing starts.
