I've decided that I'm finally going to release my book 'Cog'. I feel like if I keep waiting for the right time, then I'll never release it.
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

Gudanov, yes, JavaScript, which is evidently notoriously picky about event listeners and closures -- I feel like I accidentally walked into a land war in Asia that I didn't know was there.
BUT, I found an understandable explanation and example on the web, and triumphed in getting my program in line with it, and the icon-switching that I wanted (where you have buttons to click the pictures of, and the JS adds the onclick function to do it) works like whoa.
I feel like I should stand up in front of a temple and proclaim "TODAY I AM A PROGRAMMER."
In other news, Muppet is hanging in there without any evident distress and my bridge still hurts, but at least I got this one thing working for me....

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Gud, I support you in that. There's never a precisely right time. Release the book!
I am not even thinking about the possibility that Trump might win because it is unthinkable.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Kasich is gone now, too.

That's been true for a long time.

There was still some hope of back room shenanigans at the Republican Convention up until yesterday, but Cruz abandoning his holy crusade pretty much ensured Trump as the Republican nominee unless there's an outright revolution.

Hell, with no challenger left in the race, outright revolution is all they've got. The only way to keep Trump from being the nominee is for the Republican leadership to kick him out and pick someone who hasn't even been campaigning, and I don't think there's even precedent for that. Trump's devotees would lose what little minds they have and probably start shooting at government buildings. I'm glad I live in a little island of blue in this sea of Southern red.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Not modern precedent, at least. James Garfield ended up as president after the Republican convention couldn't come together to nominate any of the people who were actually running that year.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Maybe the Republicans will come together and nominate Obama?
