well, as of today i am officially caught up. my benign neglect of the blog has paid off, i see, with winnings that are equal to an awesome rush song i've never heard but plan to download somehow.
you have yet to post the promised picture that you may or not have actually done in retaliation for the one targeting your dog, but when you do post that i will smile widely.
now.
"Wisdom, from my experience, and then my ability to converse and not getting mad at anyone. You don’t hear any of these politicians talking about bringing back this progressive tax system, and I know how we can do this. And the third thing is, we can’t have this crime. "
-->hmm, "3rd thing"? well, anyway, the 'ability' to which he refers has really reinforced my idea of having coffee and pie with him. will you be there, too? without you arranging it, it might not even happen.
reminds me that i asked a patient to write a sentence the other day, as i often do to "test" them, and he wrote "i like pie" and "i like potadoes." in cursive.
i also liked Mr. Sandstrom's (note how close his name is to "Sand Storm") comment re: the Chinese-preventing "double fence" procedure. because he's right: they chinese who enter the U.S. from Mexico do tend to end up in Madison (also Iowa City) for whatever reason. do they become math TAs?
I don't know about the election, whether Madison has the same policy as the presidential elections apparently have (i.e., candidates must begin to justify themselves and bore us to tears at least 2 years ahead of the general election), but whenever the mayoral race is run, i say "A vote for Sandy is vote for more candy!"
