Living in a college town just a half mile away from campus. Calendar parking. Walking two blocks with groceries because the entire street is packed with students partying on a friday night. And especially the drunk guy I discovered urinating in the walkway as I returned to my apartment tonight.

I'm about to go bonkers, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

I have no idea where it came from, but I have that damned song "I can't stop my leg" going through my head, and it won't stop. Make it stop, SOB! (I can't even remember the comedians name...)

was working on riding mower. engine cover came down on my finger delaying further piano lessons for 5 weeks minimum. cleaning out a deep muscle gash with a q- tip will either make your fangs come out or let you see your breakfast again. there was enough vital subcutaneous tissue left that a large debriding may not be necessary... unless infection sets in, then i will get a swine flu shot and maybe have a beer.

Ok, now that I wouldn't wear anywhere. Not because of any war, but because Grant was an antisemitic jerk, and he was one of the worst Republican presidents. Talk about scandals! His adminsitration was riddled with them. We're not just talking a few...

Not around here, lol. Broad, Church, Mound, Pumpkin, Middle, pretty much named after what was near, I think?

> I thought all streets in Jorjuh were named Peachtree

It is very common in the South to name streets after trees, which I don't find weird at all. There is a subdivision in San Antonio where the streets are named after actors. I really don't see the appeal of living on Lucille Ball Way or Bob Hope Drive.

And I have lived in the South all my life and it is definitely populated with pockets of sore losers, not everyone, but more than a smidge.

Enhanced Interrogation Techniques
Dick Cheney has recently threatened to not cooperate with a Justice Department probe. Since we are in a time of war and they are trying to find out information of national security, would enhanced interrogation techniques be appropriate?
