Oh bleh, I could only watch 56 seconds of that video. Honestly I feel bad for McCain/Palin having those people as supporters...they're only voting for them because they're Republican, and in their misbegotten tiny brains, Republican=one nation under Jeebus, and no more killin' babies for stem cells!
Here's one that takes the cake: Marksy works with this mouthbreather who thinks Palin shouldn't be eligible to run because she's not American. Because, as he said, Alaska is "way up there with Canada and Russia" and he, in his infinite wisdom, doesn't consider it part of the US. I lol'd when he told me that and ran to share the story with my boss, thinking she'd get a kick out of it, and she was just like, well, I'd rather have an Alaskan than someone who doesn't look like they're from here. WTF?! I kinda thought she was joking but then she repeated the age-old redneck's tirade of Obama being "Muslim."
Heaven help us.
Always! And yeah, I don't have to get up that early for any particular reason, but most of the time I just stay up until then and sleep during the day. The story of my life!

EVENT OF THE WEEK: Thursday - Meat Puppets, Orange Peel (Asheville) The Orange Peel: Meat Puppets
You might remember them as the one of the pioneering bands of the pre-grunge alternative rock sound of the late 80's, and the inspiration for Nirvana....or you may recognize them as the really shaggy guys that showed up to play "Plateau", "Lake of Fire" and "Oh Me" during... Read More
They took me off the schedule at JG...it's all just a bunch of bullshit drama really...sigh...but that's ok. I know some better opportunities will come up.
(All right, as much as the altered comic theme was neat, it made it so an journal entry took two hours of planning and editing for one thought Makes me even less motivated than normal to post. So you may see them in the future, but for now, I'm gonna try a new format that actually may involve... Read More
3 more seasons of Lost is both good news and bad news. I don't want such a great show to end...if it continues, hopefully, to be great...but I want answers now! I demand immediate gratification!
