In Jaggers’ fashion

[erastes]

Put the case that you don’t go to bed when you should, and stay up until 2am yakking to people around the world. Put the case that when you do go to bed you can’t sleep for various painful reasons and toss and turn till about four. Put the case that cats can’t tell the time and the sun comes up at fourish and that cats think that dawn=breakfast. Put the case that Lili has a voice like a Foghorn. How much sleep do you think I got?  NOT a lot. I see a siesta in my immediate future.

AND I was bitten by a mosquito and have a hot itchy lump the shape and size of an egg on my arm. It gets worse each year, I swear.

The only good thing was that scenes of Mere Mortals filtered into my head and that I still remembered them this morning, which is 1. good and 2. a relief. Apart from the time line, which I still think needs a bit of work, I’m really happy about the mystery element. Never done a mystery before, and – from the view of my one test case who doesn’t know the plot – it seems to be working as she hasn’t got a bloody clue what’s going on. This of course could actually mean that it’s so bloody baffling that it’s incomprehensible… But I’m hoping not.

Oh and thanks to Tharain for this. It’s hilarious. TRULY hilarious and it reminds me antics in the Blogspohere. I don’t know who Limbaugh is, but I’ve seen Olbermann a few times now and I adore him.  I particularly love this “We divide [the remainder of the world] into three groups. Those who are hating you, those who are laughing at you, and those who will go blissfully through their lives not having any earthly clue who the hell you are.”

Perfect. Marry me, Keith.

I don’t know who Limbaugh is,

Consider yourself very very lucky.

I don’t know who Limbaugh is.

Best to keep it that way. The man's a disease.

What they said.

Yeah, you don't want to know who he is.

The town I attended college in happens to be the hometown of that Limbaugh family. His grandfather and namesake was one of the most respected lawyers in town once...and his grandson is what I call a fat oily bastard.

Oh I adore Keith, he is one of my news network crushes. During the election season I never missed his show. Now I am down to a couple times a week.

And Rush? More than 5 minutes of his show and I need to hit something pretending it is him. Ugh.

I don't think it's possible for there to be a British equivalent of Rush Limbaugh. Reason says there must be something close, probably at the bottom of some sewer, but unless it also has a radio show, a drug habit, and a knack for being arrogant, offensive, and crude, and is also an embarrassment not just to the nation but to the human race--well, I certainly HOPE you have nothing quite like Limbaugh.

He wouldn't be allowed to have airspace - we have laws against that kind of thing! No incitement to hatred of race or gender!

If you want a classic case to argue that Americans really *aren't* all that easy to incite to genocide, just pull him up on YouTube for about five minutes, and stare in horror.
On second thought, don't do that.
Bad idea!

Yes. He would be the living embodiment of the downside to the First Amendment.

Re Flush Limburger... imagine a nasty little 8-year-old boy who isn't quite that old emotionally, has never forgiven Mummy for making rules, and who is only any good at bullying other kids when nobody stands up to him. Have you ever watched South Park? This guy is Eric Cartman.

As for Keith O ... if my ovaries were still up for it, I'd want to have his baby. He was just about the only newscaster telling Bush off for 8 years.
