I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

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.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

They keep cutting to Paul Ryan for reaction shots - I'm watching this on Fox because it's the only network my tv gets. well, I get the CW but they are showing a movie.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

are Biden and Boehner really wearing lavender and pink ties?

Hm, looks lilac and salmon to me...

Watching Boehner's face as Obama talks is amusing.

Al Franken is a real jack-in-the-box tonight. Diane Feinstien (sp?) has rolled her eyes and stayed seated a couple of times.

He's starting to look sick to his stomach.

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

I dunno, when I was listening to the press conference, the whole thing felt like: Reporter asks absurdly sensationalist question. Speaker says something like "I have not heard that" or "I have no information on that" or my favorite "It's an unfolding situation. They aren't updating me." Reporter repeats sensational claim. And on and on until: Reporter: "So we don't know for sure, but there IS a possibility that "

That's what I got from the press conference too. I am shocked she stayed there as long as she did. It was just random sensationalist questions at the end.

They have said that they knew a suspect was in the cabin, they took out every window, launched the smokey canisters (I want to say tear gas or smoke bombs but I'm not sure, so something smokey) and then methodically took out the walls one by one. Then single shot, big fire and it burning a long time with no going in because it wasn't safe with an armed suspect. Then Fire Dept was given the situation.

Which, I don't see how that situation was ever meant to lead to an arrest. From the first I saw of this about four hours ago, it was clearly going to end with death. The sheriff who died was just taken from Loma Linda in the coroners van with many law enforcement following with silent lights.

Okay, SotU. That's less depressing right now.

Did Obama decree that his colors were blush and bashful?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

About half of congress is wearing pink and lavender ties, in both parties. I find it oddly charming.

Is there an @JoeBidensGlasses Twitter account yet? Because, seriously, Joe, stop fiddling. On or off, pick a side!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It is bad that I'm glad the SOTU is continuing Obama's FU to the Republican party?

Heh.

McCain looks like his face will crack if he moves it.
