Apparently a great deal of company. But I guess it's time-efficient.

Listing of county websites, at least some of which have early voting location information: http://www.sos.state.tx.us/elections...s.shtml#County

For some reason I'm feeling civic today. Too bad it's not civil instead.

My bad, I thought it was Delic. He's not bad either.
Andy Roddick is the Penelope Cruz of he tennis world. In some photos he's adorable, in others he's cross-eyed and funny looking.

Anne
Sarah Michelle Gellar is in the Penelope category too.

CIA recruitment

Apparently the CIA likes Alias so much that they've asked Jennifer Gardner to be in their recruitment videos.

Nifty! I like that you can click on the different amendments and get a nice long explanation.

I was actually surprised that the LWV thing did not seem slanted. Of course, I'm less likely to notice slants I agree with, so perhaps some rabid conservative should examine it and clue me in to the subtle shadings.

Same for the ladies. Lindsay Davenport. Damn she's hot.

Ah how I long for the days when Amanda Coetzer looked youthful...

And it's no fun lusting after Anna now that she's an old spinster...

Edited to add that I busted out my old Prince Synergy from HS to play with a guy who plays quite often. He said my racket was embarrassing. Maybe I should have played with the Yamaha Secret...

I never knew you were a plaintiff's lawyer!!!

Edited to ask if any native Texan can explain why all this crap is in the constitution and not just laws like in normal states.

My gawd, you guys must have a constitution the size of War and Peace!

("Amendment #17 - To allow the state capital building cooks to serve lunch past 1:30 on Thursday.")

Brad Gilbert never did it for me, until now. He has that confidence, that I will make you cum unti lyou are nothing but a shivering pile of jelly, vibe to him, doesnt he? I love the way he puts his mind into someone else's body and takes control. Fuckijg sexy. Except when they mention his teenage son. What a turnoff.

If I had to guess, my answer would be "carpetbagger," in the original usage of the word.
