"Attorney General John Ashcroft and Commerce Secretary Don Evans have resigned, the White House said."

I'd wish for Ashcroft to die a slow, horrible, painful and hopefully utterly humiliating death but I'm too fine a human being for that.. ish.

you do realize that this probably means he's going to come back here and find ways to mess with our lives, right? particularly since the entire state government appears to be Republican now? (I know, it's not..just looks that way..)

I'd still vote for a dead man over that guy. :)

amen. :)

(hi, I'm fae. we have many mutual friends. Nice to sort-of meet you. *grin*)

Aha... Nice to *meet* you. ;) Do you work KC Ren Fest? Also, you went to Grinell -- out on a limb here, but did you know Rian Sands?

I worked Mother Pocket's this year.

and yes, I knew Rian. *blink* connection?

I went to middle school with Rian, and kept up with her through high school. She was one of my few friends from this nightmare establishment. We gradually lost contact what with college and chaos.

If you worked Mother Pocket's, I bet you also know Robin Owens (whose name may have changed, since I think she's married now). She's another Barstow Survivor.

That's it. You're on my friends list now. :D

hee. Yes, I know Robin, of course.
Rian's one of the people I kinda meant to get back in touch with sometime, but our social groups only vaguely overlapped, so I have no idea how to find her anymore. Maybe I'll get ambitious one of these days and start tracking down old college friends in earnest.

Actually, his resignation letter mentions "other challenging horizons", which probably means he *is* considering a Supreme Court bid.

...in the face of that, I'd gladly have him back here again where he can only fuck with our state. Yeesh...who knew losing to a dead man would be so rewarding?

I'd be laughing, but the idea of him on the Supreme Court is making me try to hide under this desk. Which is making typing difficult.

Nope, newer nickname for me; trying to Lighten tha F*ck Up, as they might say... adopt the way of the otter in dealing with things.

Also, I don't know if you started in Iowa or just went to Grinnell, but hallo from another Iowegian.

Just went to Grinnell, but I think I'll always miss Iowa.

Ahh, I had the reverse situation; grew up (mostly) in Iowa, went to university in Oklahoma, went back after graduation to work, then ended up in KCMO.

MO, IA, OH, then back to MO, for me. while Missouri sometimes scares me, and frequently annoys the hell out of me, it's home. what the hell.

*laugh* dubious connection. I lived there for a year, theoretically attending OSU in Columbus.

(why am I getting such a kick out of spamming the hell out of Doc's post..)

Probably because Doc gets such a kick out of spamming our journals? ;)

Seriously though, the OSU connection is a bust. My ex lived in Cleveland and went to school at the University of Toledo. Worked at Cedar Point though, a few summers, I believe.

*laugh* those connections have already been determined.

now, I actually may well have met you both. I know I've _seen_ you both, but not positive if a meeting ever happened or not (probably not, or one of the three of us would have remembered..I'm easily confused, but not that bad). very nice hair, btw.. ;)

yes, I'm aware that I'm not making much sense. it's before sunrise, and I've been up for over an hour. apologies.

stop/start making sense!

No problem; let me try another tactic.

If I told you to meet me at the Charlesworth Hostile, would you know whose house to go to?
