Ugh, packing sucks so much. I've now packed pretty much every categorisable thing, and now I'm left with the fiddly little bits. Suck suck suck.
My housemate Matt knows me well---he looks askance at all the stuff left to pack in my room, and goes straight to: "Wait, are you driving out tomorrow?" skipping right over the more obvious "How are you going to pack all this?" Clearly, the answer to this last one is "Pull an all-nighter, duh." Which would make starting the drive tomorrow... hazardous at best.
The blog is temporarily renamed in protest to Fox's idiocy. Al Franken just released a book entitled Lies and the lying liars who tell them---a fair and balanced look at the right. The words "fair and balanced" in that title are of course meant to be a snipe at the Fox News slogan, which it turns out is trademarked (of course), so they're suing him. Atrios has gotten people to stick it in their blog taglines---see also Kimmitt and Blah3 (no relation).
Ah well, back to packing.
"If the Israelis build a wall and pull back the settlements, they will have peace. If the Israelis get UN peacekeeping forces to come in and help with security---and pull back the settlements---they will have peace. If the Israelis take off all their clothes and dance in the sweet Mediterranean rain---and pull back the settlements---they will have peace." --Michael Kimmitt
