…and you should be glad. My bile is way, way up, and letting loose, rather than being a beautiful spleen-easing maneuver, would instead result in an aneurism or something. Harriet Miers excusing herself has been greeted with joy by many, but not the folks I like: when the hard right is crowing victory, I feel [...]

Her great story recently about Princess Erica, who falls into a deep sleep when she pricks her finger on the stinky cheese, and is woken up by [...]
