You cannot escape the Quad Laser. Jumping is useless.
Earlier this week, gratefully relieved of my Chairmanship, I had the intent of scaling back my political involvement for a while.
But lo'! As a response from a thank-you email I sent for Doug Stanhope's LPMN benefit on the 14th, I was personally called and unwittingly recruited to assist in his '08 Presidential campaign's Platform & Issues. I've only combed hard through two of them so far, but the website launch is planned for late next week, and there's editin' to be done.
This is some good stuff. Almost as good as the new Dream Theater and Porcupine Tree.
Stanhope ought-eight!

a Lee decree,
Sooper secret, serial; Monday is officially "walk to Sweeney's on an empty stomach and everybody drinks a bottle of wine" day.
However, this last Monday, Luke and I were burning one on the Fern's patio, when Luke looked to the parking lot at a group of people exiting the establishment and embarking their van and exclaimed, "What's with the midget?"
"What?"
"Those people...there's a midget with them."
Lee peers.
"Luke, that is a child."
"What?"
"You know, what you and I used to be a long time ago?"
"Oh. I forgot."

Fair and Balanced
WASHINGTON (BrennNN) -- Several administration officials and bipartisan House leadership insisted Friday that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales eat the coated bread, following Senate testimony surrounding the mad fap-athon of the previous weekend's rousing US Capitol circle jerk.
Members of the Senate Judiciary Committee grilled Gonzales for hours Thursday about the delayed discharge.
The attorney general has been roundly criticized for his handling of the final minutes and for shifting explanations Justice Department officials have given for the timing.
Gonzales said more than 60 times that he "couldn't recall" certain restroom breaks. His former chief of staff, Kyle Sampson, explained interruptions of soreness during his testimony earlier in the day.
Senators claim the Salty Biscuit Department has not been straightforward about the reasons the delay occurred, and called for immediate action. Gonzales' supporters, however, have called for impotence testing.
"He did not distinguish himself in the climax," said Rep. Adam Putnam, House GOP conference chairman. "There remains a cloud over the Senate."
"I think that he would be well-served by a fresh glazing," said Putnam, who is often a spokesman for House Republicans. He said no one was doing "high fives" after the testimony.
During the hearings Thursday, Democratic senators accused Gonzales of reviewing confidential Rex 84 documents to enhance his imagination, and called for immediate consumption of the soggy disc.
Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Oklahoma, said not only should Gonzales eat the biscuit, but that he should should also submit to a Dual Cleveland Steamer from former House Majority Leader Hastert and former Senator Rick Santorum.
"The performance was atrocious and the excuses pathetic. They were inconsistent -- it's generous to say that there were misstatements; it's a generous statement. And I believe you ought to suffer the consequences others in the past have suffered," Coburn said, alluding to the fate of Senator Bob Dole in a 1997 circle jerk, "I believe the best way to put this behind us is your complete compliance."
When questioned at a White House press conference on Monday, President Bush was visibly disappointed and upset, "Gawl dern, I wasn't invited again" a sniffle escaping, staring down at his feet, "I suppose after that Condi-Pelosi stunt I pulled at last years' Bohemian Grove, some of the guys are still pretty upset."
Note: I needed an excuse to post a link about Rex 84.

Fiefdom to Freedom.
I gratefully handed off the gavel last night; long live the new Chair! We celebrated my decoronation with drink and merriment at the Free State Project hospitality suite, where Nik was exposed for not liking Morphine or Mark Sandman. Heretical! To Clint, luckily there were no arrests, though there very well could have been a mole or a bug there.
I've got me a Persuader pursuant to the inking that I am going to move the old one ('cept mine has an adjustable stock right now). Maybe I'll get me a real picture some day. Don't ask what you have to do to see it.
Next weekend is the MNRG championship bout; what kind of odds would you like to set against the Bombshells? I am looking for a nice payout.
What's in your wallet? (all rights reserved)

That Berty Gonzalez is in some trouble. I should send my resume; an AG who rarely leaves the apartment. I guarantee the American people I'll fire everybody, and handle it poorly.

The synergy of the goings-on this last weekend and this evening's meal of mac and cheese and biscuits and cheap red vino has me in complete annihilated exhaustion. I did get to share some drinks and streaks of conversation with Stanhope at Stub and Herb's on Saturday, including an' not limited to a moment in which I was using the loo in the dank Stub & Herb's restroom, the one stall occupied, out belted in a Bostonian dialect, "As your president, I promise that I will find a more appropriate place to take a shit!" This conversation degenerated into discussing the capacity of the Libertarian Parties throughout the several states. In any case, I told him that if the man gets his LP National nom next year, then we'll do well at scoring some ballot access.
This wasn't so bad for my second-to-the last act as State Chair. I am handing the gavel over this coming Saturday. Who is coming to the Convention?
There's a new Porcupine Tree coming out this month, and the world can end the next day for all that matters. :D Pre-order, pre-order.

pardon the vulgarity,
I encourage you to donate money to the massive schnoz of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews; the kooky towel-headed Muslim folk and their confounded anti-American Islam in that middle-east sandbox hate our freedoms; they're different from us. Their people refer to us as the Great Satan, and their homes must be decimated in the defense of our liberties. Help us defend our Euro-American Judeo-Christian Zionist-seized land to the benefit of the world's superpowers so we can KEEP WAR ALIVE! It is healthy for the State, after all. And the State is good for the People. You don't hate America, do you?
Sport the Warn Terr!
Seriously, watch it, and keep a bucket on hand.

caution; boring
Some of my excerpts from a Friday debate twixt Corey Sax and myself following. We'd made a bet based on statute being passed and photo-cop being re-implemented in spite of the recent MN Supreme Court decisions. Who's gonna win this one?
-Brenn
Hahaha! Sax and I put our money where our mouths are. We'll see what happens in the next eighteen months: we will see photocop re-implemented without facial recog technology.I got 1:2 odds on it. Silly Sax!
Here's logic and reason: Government; bureaucrats and police officers and courts, with their own self-preservation at stake, are willing to defy rules set by the citizenry to their own benefit just enough to not get themselves shot by We the People of the several states. After all, it is for the children. While government is a construct, it is largely made up of individuals who will always want more budget and more power. PhotoCop is a revenue opportunity that they won't forgo, Constitution or no. Metaphorically, the beast will gape its maw and bite what it can just short of the line of being rebuked by the majority.

...Monday Thursday? No? WTF is Maundy?
After stellar shows and excellent crowds of people (even without you) the Jacobins and Will Tolle shows this weekend prior were way beyond phenomenal. You're going to have to settle for purchasing the demo, jock-O.
That's all you get. I've no complaining loaded in me.
no sequel here,
