Man, she is going to have a long smoke break aftrr this. :p

She'll get her two fifteen minute breaks, and her 30 minute lunch break. Other than that? She's going to be at her desk doing the job the American people are supposedly paying her to do.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

It's only taken me about ten minutes of work currently. The seg fault she's causing should be painfully obvious to someone who has had the level of training she has had, and when she delivers it, I run it. It's not taken a great deal of time to show that it doesn't work. Why doesn't it work? That's her job to determine, not mine.

I got kicked in the groin once by a cow when I was 15. I'd rather go through that again than what I went through last night.

You could just have stayed home and waited until all those amazing bargains popped up on the webstores. The only one to blame here is you. Seriously.

The only one to blame is my wife. She's the one that dragged me out kicking and screaming.

To be fair, you and I were both on Nationstates yesterday, which is just as bad, if not worse, it's not like we're being productive.
