I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Fire alarm was just a drill. Half my office walked over to the gas station next to the building to get coffee. WOO COFFEE!

It's probably valuable information that your office reacts to a fire alarm by seeking out the highest concentration of flammable material in the vicinity.

My neighbor is not the mayor - he missed the runoff by 600 votes, which is better than I expected him to do, go team! Other than the local races, Georgia did as expected and voted for all Republicans, including re-electing my representative, once called The Stupidest Man in Congress, Paul Broun. He's like Michelle Bachman, but in pants. He is so loopy. Sigh.

Once, when there was a bomb threat, we went over to the TGI Friday's that had a view of the building so we could see it when it blew up but still be enjoying fried cheese.

No, seriously.

Well my candidate for Senator got crushed, but that wasn't a surprise. The Dem house rep squeaked by. Republicans won every other single race on my ballot except for the ones where Dems ran unopposed and county collector. No, surprise though, that's the norm.

The puppy mill regulation proposition just squeaked by. Missouri is the top puppy mill state right now. That one was down by 30 points for quite awhile, but if you know how MO works, you know the two big cities always report late and the numbers can make huge swings.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I hear you Steph. I was in a grocery store that caught fire, dropped my stuff on the conveyor belt, and went straight to the pub across the street to camp out on the patio and watch it burn.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

She could conceivably win the nomination, if the "Please, God, Anyone But Her" vote is totally fractured, but she's poison for a countrywide election.

This is my thinking too.

A lot of people are out of work and scared. And if the Republicans had had a majority going in to this election

I think there is also the healthcare bill which is unpopular, the deficit which Obama hasn't addressed, TARP, the auto bailouts, and Fox hammering away every day. A whole lot of factors working against them.

I think she could easily win the nomination if the Repubs don't put up any good candidates. I guess today also kicks off the 2012 presidential election.

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

My company has official muster points for employees to gather in case of a fire (or fire drill). EVERY SINGLE ONE is either in front of or across the street from a pub.
