Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

One for ita: [link] It doesn't fit your whole list, but I think the key items.

information libertarian

Teppy, unless your academic journal has raised subscription prices by 600% over the past decade, funded conventions for arms dealers, and/or knowingly published fake articles submitted by drug manufacturers, you're not the actual devil.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

funded conventions for arms dealers

We tried, but our canapes suck.

knowingly published fake articles submitted by drug manufacturers

We had an "author" try to pull that on us, and we stomped on him.

raised subscription prices by 600% over the past decade

I'm not even sure we've raise it 10% over the past decade. Probably yes, but I know it hasn't been much.

I think this might fit ita's complete requirements. To tell the truth, I'd like one myself.

On second thought no. Not an actual robot cat, Just has robot hair, robot expressions and head turning and so forth. Basically a stuffed animal that responds to petting. I want the feline equivalent of the Doctor's K9.

Now I am working on people in the office. I really think pet-matchmaker should be a job for me. Like 1 dya a week I find people their pets. I enjoy it so much more than my real work (although I have gotten a fair amount of that done today also).

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

So, a guy I went to high school with is spewing Right Wing talking points all over a post of mine on FB today. Erika has already waded into the fray quite impressively, but if anyone else wants to smack the guy down, please fee free. [link]

Thanks. It's like on Buffy...it's all connected. Maybe that guy should hang out with the witches in Devon for a bit. And given his follow-up point, I would not be surprised if President Romney, in his scenario, technically kept the company "open", but, not you know, making cars. They'd still have a board of directors, though. Although I don't know business terms for things I would call "JR Ewing shit," But it would allow him to say he never closed a single factory.

Mitt Romney kind of thinks like my father...it disturbs me. Ironically, my father will probably vote for Obama.
