The travails of Monday.

Happy Halloween, for those who celebrated. I got my treat - no class. I also got a trick - the paper I thought I had the topic written for written is really an introduction to the paper they want. It stinks. But I'll slog through it as best I can. Although at the moment I feel more like a Barbie doll than anything. Pose me here, turn in this assignment there...

..at least I'm semi-ahead of things.

And now, a lesson from your elementary science classes - electronics in water = bad. Perhaps the pastor was in favor of ID, but he's more of a candidate for a Darwin Award right about now. Moving slightly down to something not deadly, but also related to the religious right-wing, it turns out that perhaps the fears of liberality leading to bestiality may be founded. Maybe that will distract them from crusading against the homosexual agenda for a bit. Lord knows they could use a rest on that. Instead, they might go back to their old stand-by - abortion. And with a definite conservative nominated to the Big Bench, tempers will flare.

But that's the stuff from my department. I hope that things get better tomorrow.

You know, for some reason I can't get worried about this new nomination. I would worry me if like Bush had any friends left in the world, but he hasn't. His approval rating is down in the toilet and other republicans would like to get elected again, like ever. I just can't get wound up about it.

Well, they might still be able to push him through, and then you've got him sitting on the bench, making decisions for the next twenty or thirty years. So that's a possible reason to get aggravated over the matter... but it is kind of tough to get the rage going when you've basically been screwed from day one.

Nah, they'll overturn Roe v Wade and then suddenly discover they've managed to kick of Civil War 2 and their asses will be in the fire. The hard line conservitive movement has made too many enemies the last 5 years or so.

I note your optimistic enthusiasm about the matter. That said, I would rather not torch off a civil war until I'm out of the range of the weaponry.
