Minneapolis got Boing Boinged!

So Boing Boing posted a story about Minneapolis. A story about Minneapolis being really really dumb. Ugh.

Argle Bargle

What a headache. Those flash games that I mentioned have destroyed my brain.
The college has put up half a dozen Christmas trees in the quad and covered them with white Christmas lights. The effect is quite lovely at night, but rather junky-looking during the day. I suppose it’s nighttime for longer than it’s daytime at [...]

Flash!

I got sick of Yahoo! Games and so I rediscovered Snood. Bad news bears. Now my head is just pounding. Ughtastic.

It’s a new day

Here’s a quote for you…

“Actually, I thought we were going to do fine yesterday,” Bush said. “Shows what I know.”

All is not peaches and cream, though. For one thing, Minnesotans elected Tim Pawlenty again. Granted, he’s the only Republican state-wide official we set up yesterday but it is an indication of where the population [...]

Dems take the house!
Senate’s still on the fence. I’ve got my fingers crossed.

Who me?

I voted! I am a lean, mean, voting MACHINE! I also haven’t changed my clothes in two days. Eww! Basically I’m a freak. But I did, with some help, come up with an awesome vote for Caitlin slogan, just in case I ever decide to run for Student Council Treasurer or something. Here goes:
