Ellison handled it all with good grace and said it was time for Virgil Goode (the hayseed's name) to have "a little Civics lesson". I saw this on CNN, where they pointed out that KE could trace his American roots back to like 1749 or something.
So much of the "news" on these channels is non-stories with Free! editorializing! by Botox clones who seem to speak about, say, Donald Trump v. Rosie O'Donnell with an attention-hunger that borders on the perverted.

It is a non-story (but one I've been commed to write about) in the sense that the official swearing-in has no book to oath over and the one where they do swear on a book is private, at their office. Ellison is basically refusing to call the guy a bigot because they've never met but the essence of his response is GET ONE CONSTITUTION.

I am occupying myself on Christmas Day by browsing OKCupid - I just randomly found Emsk's profile on there, and recognised her from the bee-in-mouth photo.

We will have a bit of Boxing Day celebrations later as BF's dad is ancient and English and regales us with stories of actual boxing-up of gifts for the family's servants and so on; it's like the missing link to the Victorian/Edwardian era. BF's mum is also 70 today.
Currently own mother watching endless news cycles on Fox about beauty contestants which I find hypocritical: 'you'll only wear skivvies in public when WE say so, Missy!'

Firstly, some joker has put a sweet wrapper in my fan meaning it makes a horrible whirry sound when I turn it on. I work in an office where the women are made of icicles and so are permanently cold (hence the heating always on Max) so I use my fan regularly. I spent the first five minutes cursing in a mostly unchristian manner the comedian who figures this might be good.
Anyway, two broken pencils later and sweet wrapper is out. I log on to my machine to find some fucker's hacked into my ebay account and selling DVDs! Little House on the Prairie and Six Feet Under box sets, apparently. I also got an email saying that ebay had noticed weird things happening to my account, has cancelled the bad orders, and reset my password. Blimey.
In short, not a happy start - I'm stressed, tired and annoyed. As is the rest of the office, looking round.
I dunno who else is here today. I may log on and post to myself ala k8 the gr8, I have a feeling conversation will be sparse today.

Ice cream's not a bad idea. Or even turn it into some kind of cookie . . . not bad!
