Oh no! You said his name! DammitDammitDammit!

And you didn't just say his name... you taunted him!

What the hell were you thinking? Now we're gonna have to put up with three or four days of constant gibberish until the bullshit volcano is finished erupting.

Yah, they get an election where a small % can win a major seat and they don't show up.... stupid.

Perhaps the big R should run? He's from there, after all!

Damnit, HB...it's Mk. V!!!

And what the hell is wrong with all of you? Are ya stoopid or something? He can't run for governor! He's very busy planning his move to North Dakota/Alaska/wherever with his mail-order bride so that he and his kind can take over the world!

(I must admit...his absence during all this is VERY surprising.)

California loves to blame others for its self-created energy problems. When they didn't pay their bills to energy suppliers and those energy suppliers subsequently wouldn't supply energy to them, they blamed those nasty out-of-state energy providers for the blackouts.

Gas prices are sky-high in CA (more than they are elsewhere) because of taxes and (more importantly) CARB mandates; blaming refineries just allows the government to ignore that.

Bustamente is the machine choice; he'll be just as bad as Davis. Too bad it looks like he's the #1 contender as of yesterday.

Fear not, R and his ragtag band of pioneer LPs have finally found a welcoming haven -- on Mars. The surface is inhospitable, so they've gone underground. That's him erupting in response to your reporting the demise of the LP -- which explains the unusual topology of the crater.

Yes. Why? Are you preparing to rip me a new one, Syc? If so, that's why I typically don't get involved in political convo.'s because I realize that I don't really know what the hell I'm talking about, you know, ignorant and uninformed. Things were gettin' slow in the threads I normally participate in so I thought I'd broaden my horizons a bit. Maybe I'll just go search out a non-political corner of the Cellar to sit in.

Who is the Smoking Party candidate? As I sit here in front of my compooter hucking up a lung from smoking my Camel ciggie this peaked my interest. Maybe I'll jump on that band wagon instead of Arrnald's.

Thanks 99. I've used "peaked" in this manner for three decades plus and have never been corrected before. Either everyone else I've come across in that time is as stupid as I am or you're just the most superior speller I know or maybe I've never actually used it in written form so everyone thought I knew what I was talking about for all these years. Anyway, thanks for the correction:p

Man, you are paranoid. We like you, already!

Only Dave and Radar are likely to explode on you. Quzah is just strong-opinioned. Everyone has their political g-spot, though. :)

Damn LUVBUGZ, you need to relax.

I would have only ripped you a new one had you said "no." In that case, you would deserve it because you were an absolute moron. However, since you did vote, it's cool.

As much as I think most Californians are on the rock, I actually understand why many want a change in Sacramento. I absolutely do not agree with the process of going about the change, but I do understand the sentiment behind it.

Dave seems OK as long as you don't question his pixel manipulation abilities. I've never met this Radar person (sounds like I'm fortunate in that respect). But, I have to say I think Quzah is a complete frigging idiot. Talk about paranoid, "IT" won't even tell me if "IT's" a boy or a girl. Either way "IT'S" an asshole (IMO) :p Anyway, that's for another thread. Oh, and Juju, I like you too!
