On a somewhat serious note - just what the hell IS that picture? What's the story there...costume party, a GOP caucus gone wrong, what?

Ahhh...if only we all could look like we did in our 20s. Except me of course. I have actually gotten better looking over the years. I still look like crap, but you should have seen me then.

I was listening to this very thing just the other day, thinking how cute that at one time there was some idea that Jerry Brown would usher in an era of what... hippie-fascism?

I guess back in 1979 our crystal balls didn't envision the rise of the Third Frysch, fructose-guzzling teevee-powered patridiots we have now.

So basically: drastically limiting property tax increases and easy, whackjob referendums have created a state that can never have enough revenue to be a viable state. One state that could by its GNP stand as a major country. Only the 'drown the gummit' brigade has kneecapped it. And someone would <i>want</i> to be in charge of this?

I consider it 'waiting for a lightening strike' but it is a tired cliche, tired being extra tedious used with cliche.

That picture is such a telling comment on the state of our republic right now.

As a fan of SNL in the late 80s (Carvey, Nealon, Hartman, Lovitz, and Dennis Miller when he was still funny), I used to often wonder if Jerry Brown was any relation to <a href="http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\?v=-BfdbhRwM00" target="_blank">A. Whitney Brown</a>. They always looked/sounded alike to me.

As a Californian, working in the Bankruptcy industry, right here in the very capital, I can say, work has been great lately! It's like totally a way-hawtt trend and stuff!

Looking forward to after the election where Meg has to concede, then has to file Chapter 7.
