I Have My Car (And House) Keys With Me
Edited on Mon Aug-25-08 01:35 PM by EarlG
...but they're staying in my pocket, thanks. I have them because I left my car in weekly parking back in NC. I believe the house thing may be close to being overdone.

Here, incidentally, is my ONE house as I tried to get packed and get on the road to Denver. If it looks like the cats are trying to help me get on the road, you are reading the scene wrong. They are doing their best to hinder me. (And, yes, the time code is there on purpose. It was the Night of the Text Message.)



Elad and I will be heading downtown pretty soon, hoping to catch up with other DUers. Photo montages and live-blogging will be forthcoming. Wish us luck!

By the way, John W. McCain, NOT maverick. This is maverick:



Picked up a copy of the Denver "independent weekly," Westword last night and there is an article on the different types of protesters they were expecting here. A bit stereotyping, I thought, and not as funny as they think it is, but, still, had some insight. Here's how they had listed, along with cartoon images: Anarchist, angry Hillaryite, barnacle protester (off-message), nostalgic hippie, anti-abotionists, 9/11 truthers, upper-middle-class radicals (yipe, I think I've been typed), immigrant rights, anti-immigrant, and street theater weirdos (weirdos?). If you are out on the street here, the article said that an anti-racial profiling statute in Colorado from 2001 (I remember this) calls for police officers to provide a "business card" with name and badge number to persons they detain, but don't cite or arrest. But you have to know to ask for the card, they point out.

who eats with chopsticks right out of the pot.

4. That's a given at my house.
I have enough cats that each could have their own house to live in if the McCain's donated theirs.

6. You guys be careful with the private security guys.
Glenn Greenwald says they already shoved Jane for standing in the place Denver PD told them to stand.

11. My dog ate my burrito yesterday
And, no, that is not code for a kinky perversion. She literally ate my dinner when my back was turned.

Sneakiness is not confined to cats.

13. Nice MacBook Pro. Go Obama! Go Biden! Go Apple!
Edited on Mon Aug-25-08 03:10 PM by onehandle
New Mac portables come out in September. I'm finally going to go Intel!

My Mac is the last 17" PowerBook. Sweet in the day, but starting to feel a bit pokey.

On edit: Our cats will never forgive us for going flat panel years ago. The miss the warm CRTs.
