(no subject)

Okay, so NOBODY wants the Discipline deck and Elder's REvenge? I'm serious, five bucks.

The Condo Corp has FINALLY decided to DO something about the bulging wall in the back yard. So now, we have no wall in our backyard. And no fence. And no stairs.

Sweet God, let there be no fire in the house.

I wish I had a digital camera. I could show it to everyone.

Packing goes well. Mega props to mr_weasel for a passel o' empty Rubbermaid containers.

My Spycraft character migrated from Mr. T to Jet Li. It wasn' t hard, either.

For my own reference.

Hmmm. Interesting.

Down south, in Sam's place, some of the folks are getting their knickers in a twist because, well, the folks in the White House (lovely piece of real estate, that. I wonder why they painted it white?) are discussing ways to delay elections in case of an'incident'.

Well, fiddle-de-dee, if that ain't enough to call for a sudden invocation of the Second Amendment (the bit about the well-regulated militias, which is basically the people saying to the government "mess up, and we shoot ya").

Now, what's interesting isn't the huge partisan kerfuffle.

Oh, no. They'll get into Center Right vs Medium Right shouting matches over anything. "Your guy did this, your guy did that, your guy's a drunk, your guy's a lech, blah, blah, blah."

No, what's interesting is this. Section 4, Subsection 2.

For those of you who can't figure out a link, here's the line.

"In time of real or apprehended war, invasion or insurrection, a House of Commons may be continued by Parliament and a legislative assembly may be continued by the legislature beyond five years if such continuation is not opposed by the votes of more than one-third of the members of the House of Commons or the legislative assembly, as the case may be."

So. What the Yanks are calling the advent of the antichrist, we're calling "a part of our constitution".

Are they just over-sensitive? Are we too blase?
