Mama Mia! I’m voting today here in Florida and this is the man I’m voting FOR. Not voting against anyone. FOR. This would warm the cockles of any conservative’s heart… Filched from Reaganite Republican. EDIT: We voted! Felt damn good. I don’t understand people who won’t vote; it’s like they’re spitting on the graves of [...]

Or, the forecasted spider. I don’t have the patience, back or shutters for this thing. Please help me pray this away. Hey, Cuba’s nice this time of year… and they have bunkers!

I happen to really like this one. SOOC, like most of the others. And all on automatic. Next time I’ll diddle with the [...]

At least it’s better than a hurricane, yes? Just wish we could funnel some of this over to the drought stricken states like Texas and Oklahoma. There’s reportedly only a 10% chance of development – hope that holds true.

Say what you will about Florida’s new Governor, the man is steadily implementing every campaign promise. Mandatory drug testing for people taking government assistance is a biggie and sure to be contested.
