How did witches of old fly on broomsticks?
One theory is that
overtones are not to be dismissed, either. One wonders then what the hell
thanks fatherdan!
Goodness
I have just been meaner than a wet cat all day. I don’t know what’s gotten in to me, but I swear, if one more stupid person leaks into my reality, I’m going to have to beat them with a pointed stick!
In that same vein…taking part in this simulated Senate thing has made me realize why the founding fathers wanted restrictions on who could be part of the government. I swear to you, some of the debate has reached highs like “Nu uh!” and “You’re just wrong…cause I say so!” This idea, which held such promise, may turn out to be a huge, huge waste of time…based on the sheer idiocy, lack of knowledge and obvious inability to look up basic constitutional law that the majority of the participants seem to exhibit. I mean, I’m all for a good debate…I love a good argument…but what on earth are you supposed to say to people whose primary point is “Nu Uh!”. Grrrr!
Also, I’ve been thinking about dill pickles and chocolate sauce…and that’s just not right, even pregnant, there’s no call for that.
Kung Fu Baby
There’s really not a much cooler feeling in the whole world that feeling your baby kick your belly button from the other side. Words I thought I’d never say…and yet, so, so true for me now.
I was sitting in my rocking chair, working on the quilt I’m making for his bed, and he kicked hard enough that it moved the threads and stuff I had laying across my tummy. It brought tears to my eyes…I’m a big ol weepy sop, I know. 
As god is my witness, I will never go voteless again!
Update 9/06/02: Ok…that was a big ol, giant, bush-dick-sucking, christian-right jerkoff fest. Really, what a huge waste of time.
It was a long, hard race, but I stand before you, the new Independent Senator for the Great State of Texas. I shall serve proudly and well.
Ok, not really. Like the Repubs in this state would elect a.) a woman, b.) a tan skinned woman, c.) a liberal tan skinned woman, d.) a liberal tan skinned woman who thought the drug war was a total waste of time, money and effort.
When pigs can fly, would that happen in real life. But damn it Beavis, the Net ain’t real life! There’s a new group being formed: the simulation, on Yahoo, of the United States Government!
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Sim_US/
Currently seating the 100 members of the United States Senate. Join Sim_US and request to be seated as a United States Senator. Choose any available state. Jump into the fray. What purpose will it serve? Who the heck knows…but it looks like a pretty fun social experiment, no?
So when you join, come by and say Howdy to Dejah Thoris, the proud Indy Senator from Texas. We’ll have a coffee and plan the overthrow of the right wing side of the Senate.
400 Arrested, 600 Lobotomized In Nationwide RIAA Sweep
(Washington, D.C. – Aug 31, 2002) Full article here
Armed agents of the Recording Industry Association of America raided over 400 residential bathrooms early this morning, arresting 406 soaking wet people in the act of flagrantly violating music industry copyrights with their clothes off and the water running.
…
“Flagrant copyright violations like these have been going on since the invention of indoor plumbing,” said RIAA spokesperson Hillary Rosen, “and it’s time those few hundred million sleazeballs out there learned they can’t get away with disseminating stolen music just because they’re doing it naked and wet in a tiny stall.”
