Dumb vid, but I still get a little kick out of it whenever I hear that song.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Well I like Turn Down For What and its video but not this take on it.
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."
I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Clearly it needed more throbbing sex organs and ceiling collapses.

Grimey does it again, this time more spectacularly going off on a tangent about her duties as secretary of state and even invoking AWR TREWPS who lay their lives on the line.

Medical marijuana is on the ballot in Florida.  I heard a political ad in which the speaker claimed that opposition to medical marijuana came from Big Tobacco; who wanted to continue to push their poisonous, cancer-causing product and prevent people from using medical marijuana in order to get well.

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Just voted early.  Abstained on the very close Iowa open Senate race.

Wuss.

I figured I'd take Frau Spiess to the polls with me the morning of 11/5 rather than mail in her ballot.  I get two hours off to vote on election days, so we'll probably have a nice breakfast afterwards.

Why? I can't imagine not voting for the senate in a swing state. Are both candidates uniquely terrible this time around?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

You should have voted for the Green candidate. Both as a protest vote and to blow Seedy's mind.

So when are all of the results done and dusted, the Thursday morning after next? 

Or will exit polls give the lowdown on the Wednesday evening?
