What's this? Breitbart is dead? Celebration For The Grey Days indeed. I hope good things come in threes too, and that means we can bid a fond farewell to Ron Paul and Bashar al-Assad. hehehe, someone called James O'Keefe the Salacious B. Crumb to Breitbart's Jabba. I think Rush is more like Jabba, but that's just me.

Until Michigan (or Michigan might just be another fluke), here's how I thought the primaries would end up: Romney in the NE and Mormon-dominated states, Santorum in the midwest, and Gingrich in the former Confederacy minus Florida.
I'm probably wrong, but I'm leaving this up for posterity and because it leads into the Burning Question.

One of my coworkers thinks there's a secret cabal of flying squirrel smugglers. Wikipedia tells me that they do in fact live in the northern United States and southern Canada, but they might be in on the conspiracy.
I don't think I told the story of the flying squirrel yet, so here it is: someone found him in her house and the wildlife center is keeping him around until winter ends and they can release him into the wild. The end. I think it's a male, anyway. I've never actually seen him, but it's easy to tell, unlike with reptiles (hint: look between the hind legs)

I think I'll read Breakfast of Champions. I need something like that after Illusion (Heart of Veridon, not so much, but it pissed me off that there's a sequel now that bookstores are more or less dead, maybe I can order it directly from Solaris Books). Great book, but it's just so damned depressing.

Instead of having dreams of existential angst or being a butterfly dreaming of being a giant moth destroying Tokyo, I dream of Baten Kaitos. I was probably looking at Shootingstar's doodles of girls fishing for celestial sea creatures. I'm going to play Origins soon, soon. I then dream of the pit of the wyrm and Carboniferous Park/Carboniferous Disney World with perpetual monsoons and Gestapo security guards. And carboniferous trees that were in stasis for three hundred million years. And one I kind of forgot.

I swear she says swannerbee in Heart Is Strange, and I think "oh, cool, a Veniss Underground reference, no, wait."

I forgot just how unlikeable Homer is in Ice Cream Of Margie With The Bright Blue Hair.

Burning Question: Who wins in Wild 'n Krazy Kids: Sarah Palin, W. or Kevin James?
