Well, today marks the beginning of the end. No, not for Gonzo (well, OK, maybe for Gonzo, but that’s not what I meant), but for the end of this horrible nightmare, known as “grad school.” I’ll spare you the gory details, but basically I have three days of acutely horrible hell, to be followed by roughly a week and a half (unless I can write faster) of chronically horrible hell, trying to crank out 60 pages of bullshit that will pass for, um, not bullshit. Or at least not so much bullshit that I don’t pass. Then you (and, more importantly, my wife) will never have to listen to me bitch about school again. I will promptly begin bitching about looking for a job, and then (hopefully fairly quickly) bitching about working.

As many have already said, if Sheryl Crow wants to touch me, I probably won’t get hysterical and start yelling “Don’t touch me” as Turd Blossom did.
This might be less a sign that Rove is a closet case than the fact that his nerves are on edge, as the posse closes in.
That line isn’t going to work in the showers of the federal pen, Rover Boy. :sammy:
So not only am I not first, I’m not even the first to offer to allow Sheryl Crow to touch me.
:rofl2:
Maybe I’ll watch CBS News tonight and offer to allow Sharyl Atkisson to touch me. :hubba:
PJ, I will tell you this: There is nothing in the world that feels better than walking out of that last final exam. :nod: I’m lucky in that my master’s program didn’t require a dissertation, but my last exam was a very tough computer networking course, and when I walked out, knowing that I had aced the exam, I stood in the building’s hallway for a few minutes, just tasting the freedom. :pup:

btw, druid, wtf is “animal enterprise terror”????
The Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act pushed by animal industry groups, corporations, and the politicians that represent them is ostensibly meant to target underground, illegal actions committed in the name of animal rights. Itรขโฌโขs been in the works, in various forms, since the passage of the Animal Enterprise Protection Act in 1992: proponents say AEPA didnรขโฌโขt go far enough, and they need more sweeping legislation to crack down on illegal actions by underground groups like the Animal Liberation Front.

—–by marginalizing and redefining basically all animal ight activists as (economic) terrorists, they will only increase the numbers of people willing to use extreme measures. “if you’ve got the name, you might just as well have the game.”
it looks like, if you use the mail or internet to promote a demonstration, with the intent of causing economic damage, you are guilty of federal terrorism charges under this law.
apparently, a version has already passed in the house. where is it at in the senate? anybody know?
wow rox…..that is intense.
but if there is a party to fundraise and a binch of us go and protest say….mccain….and it was emailed to me ….does that count?
shit …is it 2008 yet?
well, wikipedia says this is old news. passed by the senate in sept. and the house (under ‘suspension of the rules’ with only six congress members voting).
one more piece of :crap: legislation that needs to be repealed…
m:
it’s not about political campaigns — just all about the benjamins.
“animal enterprise” = drug testing, factory farming, fur industry, etc. “big pharma” put big muscle behind this bill thru the “animal enterprise protection coalition” (per wikipedia).

More as a Wave — 80’s to early 90’s we were going in a cruelty- free and slow-environmental directon then. Then the …extreme were spied upon and many were arrested and some disappeared. The Vigilence was for naught … Where were the “pacifists”? There is no more time. Polar Bears are dying … and so many other abuses. Look at my my space “thing” … 300,000 Harp Seals mostly plus due to Global Warming we lost an additional 150,000 to 200,000 Harps. But NOW the rethugs with the help of Rethugs in Dems clothing have decimated any animal rights and environmental rights there were.
Without the Radical , nothing is Agitated to the Point of Action. ๐ of course, my computer and Mozilla says NO :no: … :smack: this was for a previous conversation.

Scientists exploring a mine have uncovered a natural Sistine chapel showing not religious paintings, but incredibly well preserved images of sprawling tree trunks and fallen leaves that once breathed life into an ancient rainforest.
Replete with a diverse mix of extinct plants, the 300-million-year-old fossilized forest is revealing clues about the ecology of Earthรขโฌโขs first rainforests . The discovery and details of the forest are published in the May issue of the journal Geology.
รขโฌลWeรขโฌโขre looking at one instance in time over a large area. Itรขโฌโขs literally a snapshot in time of a multiple square mile area,รขโฌย said study team member Scott Elrick of the Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS).

I was just in the car listening to th eipod and I happened to dial the spinning wheel of fortune to an MS from around 1.5 yrs ago…and it was hilarious…but not only that, Bush was going on about how he refused to make any artificial timeline and…..Brendan was going on abotu the TP dispenser…and Riley was on vacation so it was and incredibly great show….
We have come so far politically in that Bush is saying the same stuff but form a different position of power…like, less and less….and MS is still funny and current….unbelievable!

PJ, do you have any customers that are absolute knuckleheads and do you charge them a higher rate?
I almost post the email I received regarding the new computer I built for my next door neighbor. It’s his first computer (belive it or not!) so his father (another customer) is helping with instruction, unfortunately his father decided to futz around with the son’s computer,and now I have to try and get it all straightened out.
So, higher rate or no?
