Drowning Doom.
I was up at three this morning bailing out my garage with a two gallon bucket. The water was about seven inches deep, deep enough to flow in through the back landing and down into my basement. I bailed out my entire garage with a two gallon bucket. An hour and a half of frantically shoveling water out my back door so that my half collapsed sewer pipe could keep pace with the diminished deluge flowing down into my laundry room. 2.75 inches between two and three this morning, and me at the bottom of a hill. My sump pumps never stood a chance. |

I have a house that I live in and it's more or less done. Except for the basement. And cleaning. And the yard and garden and fence and that window in the bathroom and caulk around the shower and maybe a porch rail. But it's close enough. Current Mood: exhausted |

Stealing this from anonymous internet poster, maybe quote from somewhere else. Succinct.
"When is it a human life?" is debated instead of the more relevant question, "Does anyone have the right to use the body of another against their will?" The answer to that is simple, obvious, and has huge legal precedence. We don't even take organs from corpses to save the lives of people who need donations unless they gave us permission to do so while alive. Let that sink in. A person's right to their own body is so respected that we observe it even after death and even if honoring it will cause a person to die. A confirmed person. I'm not talking a hypothetical maybe person here. Current Mood: Drugged |

Political Avatar Test.
On Dec. 21, 2005, in the midst of a firestorm of criticism about the wiretaps, Harman issued a statement defending the operation and slamming the Times, saying, “I believe it essential to U.S. national security, and that its disclosure has damaged critical intelligence capabilities.” Pelosi and Hastert never did get the briefing. And thanks to grateful Bush administration officials, the investigation of Harman was effectively dead. Many people want to keep it that way. http://www.cqpolitics.com/wmspage.cfm?docID=hsnews-000003098436&cpage=3 |

 http://www.aclu.org/safefree/general/olc_memos.htmlEducated guess at redacted portion: "Note that if you accept in good faith an insect described to you as "non-stinging" for use in this technique your intent cannot be judged as harmful, even if the insect in question is of a stinging variety." |

Lucky me.
Went out to an event tonight. Goth/industrial thing that happens once a month. About two hundred people, pretty nice. There was a raffle. I won. I always win raffles. Two tickets to Android Lust and Afterchain next week. Also ran into a few old friends, very nice. Pleasant evening. I may have pictures available after Gina uploads them. |

Welp.
Supervisor got walked out today. No idea what this means for the department, but we're keeping things together pretty well. There's blood in the water, though, and some elements of upper management don't much care for QA... we'll see what happens. One month to go, c'mon. |
