- Oh awesome, Texas is not really prepared, at all, for election day. No great contingency plans in case voting machines break down, no procedures for doing an audit. [Austin American Stateman]

At least there aren’t any Crustaceans in that shake…
Maybe somebody could decipher this sentence from David Brooks’ column today, describing Obama:
Through some deep, bottom-up process, he has developed strategies for equanimity, and now he’s become a homeostasis machine.
This definitely has something to do with teh Geh, but that’s as far as I’ve got.
I bet Uncle Ted likes big trashy milkshakes. Bet he doesn’t have to pay for them too.
Hey…atleast that fat shake contains no Crustaceans and it does have NOs for the kids.
A snark! A Snark! My 401k for a snark!
That’s because after Tom DeLay’s personally guided improvement to the Texas voting system, they don’t really bother to count most of the votes. They assume that parts of Houston, Austin, and Galveston are full of hippies and the gays and mark a few token Democratic votes in those areas. They then paint the rest of the state a bright and God given shade of red.
WadISay: Barry is a yogi? Yogi Barry!
Who cannot help but to love this man! Warren Buffett: “Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful.”
BUY BABY, BUY!
Can I get some truck nutz on that shake please?
My milkshake brings calories to the gut,
And they’re like
It’s fatter than yours,
Damn right it’s fatter than yours,
It can kill you,
So I have to charge
WadISay: It’s either “Barry is the Borg” or “After they hired Kristol, I will be able to make up any old shit and not get canned.”
That shake looks nast.
Pssst. Wanna try some sewage?
Why am I NOT surprised that Tennessee is also woefully unprepared for voting day? I mean, dammit, even Mississippi and Arkansas are better prepared than us. *slams head against wall*
WadISay: Well, let’s see: There’s the bottom-up, and equanimity has to do with horses I think, and the homo-whatever machine…I think it’s some device to help someone have sex with a horse!
As a contractor in NYC, I can personally attest to the natural propensity of all clients to try to get something for nothing. The Stevens trial should be a class action suit against all cheapskate and/or deadbeat homeowners.
Thank you.
My theory iz that early voting will favour Obama, because old people think change is communist. If I am right, and Obama wins, my black beret and big wicker chair business BOOOOMS.
Texas? Not prepared for voting? Hopefully all those people who washed away during Ike cast early ballots.
btw, who likes to watch CNBC Porn? Down, baby, down. You know you like it.
bearbait: I like it. I’m going with it.
WadISay: I don’t understand these publications? Is no one around to edit dumb shit like that?
nurple: I’m stocking up on Little Red Books. I’ll be fucking supermodels on piles of money in no time.
Only an elitist egghead would correctly use the term ‘homeostasis.’
MathewBrooks: and has more than a day’s worth of calories, fat, and sodium. And you are hungry in a hour because it has almost no fiber. Yum. We iz teh obeese country.
nurple: We are voting tomorrow–in VA you can vote in person or by absentee ballot right now. Lots of people are doing it because the lines are predicted to be insane. I am hoping you are right, but I do worry about all the undecided morans out there.
bearbait: Gay sex with a horse.

Ha! I drink your milkshake! Well, maybe not that milkshake. That’s kinda gross.
In that case, make mine a Heath Shake Small.
Enjoy the Heath Shake with a Triple Baconator and watch your heart explode,
sending torrents of blood gushing from your every orifice!
You don’t believe Warren Buffett? He knows about money since he has such a lot of it.
Also, Tory! Tory! Tory!
Thanks for that link to the shake - I just spent thirty minutes reading about how fat I am and how it’s going to take five years to lose twenty pounds. Thanks for spoiling my Cheetos and martini weekend, Wonkette!
National Enquirer is picking up on the Keating five - Joe the Plumber connection. Maybe there’s something to it…
Doglessliberal: Might as well have a special sundae–a lump of butter drizzled in palm oil–for desert.
donner_froh: [sound of breakfast coming back up]
It’s good to be Warren Buffett. You just buy stocks, then tell everyone you’re buying stocks, and watch your stocks go up when everyone else buys stocks.
Having said that, I’m glad he said it and I hope the rich old bastard gets the market moving up today.
Also, now Jimmy Buffett: there’s someone you can trust financially, because:
Good times and riches and son of a bitches
I’ve seen more than I can recall.
What the fuck kind of milkshake doesn’t contain crustaceans?
aw. David Cameron thinks the British government can influence the world economy. That’s so cute
Are the people who do those fat studies for real? I think every once in a while they just make stuff up just to confuse everyone.
