Michelle- yep, after horrible dreams you wake up feeling more knackered than you did before you went to sleep.

Sorry to hear about your knee by the way, is it an ongoing problem? I dislocated my kneecap when I was about 13 and so know something about knee-pain!

Have a great time seeing Joe tomorrow!

jazzy:Cool man, sounds good. I'll do the same for you.

TASTEY - Welcome back, but the Red Sox suck. ;-)

Okay, you're talking about that side of things. People were incorrectly listed as felons...okay. This happened several months before November 2000. There should have been plenty of time for individual voters to fix their records. Yes, a mistake was made somewhere. Yes, it was unfortunate.

However, I don't see how someone can make the argument that the Bush family and Katherine Harris planned this whole thing out months in advance. (I'm guessing you think she's the reason Bush won...if not, I don't see why you brought her up here...)

How did she and the Bush brothers know which states would be won by Bush and which would be won by Gore? How did they know ahead of time that it would all come down to Florida? How did they know that Gore would have lost his home state?

If Gore would've won Tennessee, his home state, the whole Florida thing would not have been an issue.

"Bush did not win the majority in the electoral vote."

Bush did not win the popular vote (I'm guessing that's what you meant), but that shouldn't matter because the popular vote has never been used to determine the president.

Whether or not the popular vote should determine the president is a separate issue entirely.

Austin, no spiders. They was skerred!

Suzie, I dislocated my knee too! lol! I was about 21 maybe, and I think the ligaments have never healed properly or they stretched out or something. When I reached down to feel my knee, my knee cap was kind of up in my thigh *everyone cringe*. I thought my husband was going to pass out. lol! The ambulance guys put me in a canvas stretcher with wooden poles on either side. We lived on the 3rd floor of an apartment bldg, so they couldn't bring up a full size one. Anyways, on the way down the stairs, the guy hit the wood pole against a doorway. The pole was against my knee, and when it hit the doorway, it popped my knee back in. They took x-rays and told me I was fine and sent me home on crutches. Every once in a while, it feels like the tendons go the wrong way and my knee locks straight. I have to kinda straighten it more till whatever is out of place goes back in and I can bend my leg again. It grosses me out so bad! lol! That's what happened when I stretched the other night. "ouch!" lol!

Mari, don't forget the backplate! lol! I'll see you tomorrow. I'm in row 17 center. Have fun!

Jblaze, hopefully they'll take your complaint into consideration and give you some free stuff.

SEE YOU TOMORROW JOE :)

Just saw Fahrenheit 9/1. It's a excellent film. is astounding. Not so much as a film - although it is cunning and moving - but as an event. A event of going against the corprate greed of the Republicans and exposing their flaws. There is something else that is astounding. The aim of Fahrenheit 9/11 is to stop Bush fixing the next election as he fixed the last. Its focus is on the totally unjustified war in Iraq. Yet its conclusion is larger than either of these issues. It declares that a political economy that creates colossally increasing wealth surrounded by disastrously increasing poverty, needs - to survive - a continual war with some invented foreign enemy to maintain its own internal order and security. It requires ceaseless war. Some people say It's a bunch of words, and a lot of them aren't true. The people who say that are lying. But you can go into the movie still believing this. Just go and watch the footage of George Bush and the soldiers, and the families of the soldiers. You may have seen, in the movie trailer, the scene in which Bush talks about fighting terrorism in one breath, and then goes back to playing golf. But no media have shown the footage of the president sitting, after he's been told the second jet has hit the world trade tower, like a mindless moron, scared, confused, inactive.. ineffective, incompetent, doing absolutely nothing. Seven minutes!! Every American should watch just that footage before deciding whether they want to trust the dumbest president in the history of the US with the lives of our soldiers. Is it patriotic to support a fool who irresponsibly, fraudulently sends our trusting, brave troops to their death? Is it patriotic to choose such a man because his religious believes are close to yours, or because he gives you a tax break. No!. It's selfish treachery. But maybe people want to keep feeling like they are doing the right thing. There are plenty of wives of child molesting fathers who don't want to or can't handle the truth. There are millions of Americans whose trust has been violated by George Bush. Many of them would rather not have their bubbles burst. But some will want to know the truth.

Chadster, tell us more of studying with Greg Howe!! What an honour for you. Greg is amazing, he has such huge hands I am sure he can demonstrate some truly terrifying licks!!!

"The aim of Fahrenheit 9/11 is to stop Bush fixing the next election as he fixed the last."

George W. Bush did not "fix" the 2000 election. See my recent post to jazzzzzzzy...
