You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Okay, now 30 is back to "no" leading. PEOPLE! BE BETTER

Jesus, if 30 fails that's just...crazy cakes for parents with school age children in California.

School will be over in mid-April.

Ahhh, shit.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Very glad Obama won, even with my issues with him.

Rmoney needs to concede already so I can go to bed.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Starting with Obama's election in '08, Republicans, Fox and the rest of the conservative media bet everything on an Obama defeat in '12.

With the economy so bad in '08 and Republican obstruction of action to help the economy, maybe that seemed like a reasonable bet. Adding in Citizens United, voter suppression, etc. just made victory seem more likely. Which is why some of them refused to even consider the possibility they'd fail.

So they bet everything and lost. No wonder some of them are having difficulty accepting this.

David, phrasing it as difficult for parents is not really the biggest concern. Kids will lose a month of instruction on top of whatever other furloughs are happening. For kids taking AP classes, they will end the school year well before the exams and then have to sit for the tests weeks later.

I'm baffled that there are any parents who voted against it based on what it will do to gut all education, not just because it screws up daycare plans.

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

C'mon now, Steph, that guy is going to be hauled off in cuffs any day now. Let him have his fun while he can.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm listening to bbc through my ipad, it's still amazing that international news orgs do wall-to-wall coverage of this election.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

From San Jose Mercury re Prop 30: "So far, almost no votes in from big liberal counties in California - LA, SF, Alameda. Roughly 25 percent in from San Diego and Riverside. None in from Orange. The final chapters on Jerry Brown's tax and the death penalty measure are not close to being written yet."
