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

Your way implies that at the other end something's been fixed.

I see the semantic distinction. Solutioning means you know how you're going to solve it...if you decide to. Still, I feel we have words that don't verb solution.

If you can grow a tree or a third head, why can't you grow a business?

I just told a user we couldn't satisfy one of her requirements because Skynet. That and telling IT horror stories to the intern have been the high point of the day. The low points have been everything making me want to cry, including stairs and missing lunch (when I said I "grabbed a bite" that was closer to literal than it should have been--I think I can count the number of bites of lunch I had).

The guy over the cube wall tells me already Skynet.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

May the second special session be more special than the first.

Seriously.

Scalia's dissent for the DOMA decision is a fucking piece of work. Shows absolutely no legal consistency to his support for DOMA and his eagerness in repealing parts of the VRA.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Angry mob"? Fuck you.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It makes me said that I left Texas and came back and goddamn Rick Perry is still governor.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I would like our Lt. Gov to meet an actual Angry Mob.

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 worry that Scalia is just trolling the Supreme Court.

Or that he's not.

Both are disturbing.

So are the Txdems prepared to fil. again?

Crap, there's a storm maybe 20 minutes out. I think I'm not swimming tonight. We'll see.

I don't think a filibuster situation can arise again, because the Dems won't be able to delay a vote until the end of the session.

I am so disgusted right now my stomach actually hurts.

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

So, what's the real logic behind a filibuster? Clearly it was working for the cause of good yesterday, but is it a loophole or a feature?
