December 24: Took this picture around 12:30 AM. Never saw a possum under the bird feeder on Christmas Eve before. And a red nosed possum at that. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
i almost forgot about the new year cliff i was so busy watching the other cliff drama. turned to cnn just in time to watch mitt romney's car elevator drop - i mean the ball in times square drop - had some whiskey and egg nog and went back to watching the political party in progress.
so, happy new year. i hope eric cantor has a happy hangover tomorrow when he wakes up in a pool of his own puke.
can't really kill gerrymandering altogether cuzz redistricting (and gerrymandering) is done at the state level (each state has its own rules, laws, etc). any challenges within each state go through the courts and or even to the supreme court in some cases. so its not really anything that is regulated from warshington. unless its covered by something like the voting rights act or something like that... but every state has a constitutional right to redistrict based on population changes etc... so it can become difficult to control what is normal redistricing and what amounts to devious gerrymandering.
i guess i should put up a new post. bummed we haven't heard from mike in a long time. and pjk didn't even stop by to say merry christmas or let us know if the goats were doing ok. jezis h christmess.
