From the London Times:

Nitpick: it’s not “The London Times”. The name of the paper is The Times. If you’re citing it outside Britain, you call it London’s *The Times * or *The Times * of London.

Thursday’s forecast for Denver:
Sunny, with a high of 86.
God must love Obama.
[/QUOTE]
That forecast is just to make the sudden downpour of blood, frogs, rain, and two-headed kittens that much more shocking.
OK, I want the two-headed kittens.
Tropical storm Julio, now a depression, has been a major downer for FotF.
Hurricane Gustav might also be, depending on where it hits next week.
Every time I look at the hurricane prediction map, I keep thinking about the Cone of Silence!

Sorry, ma’am, but they’ve all been requisitioned for the Smiting of the Democrats.
Could I interest you instead in a four-eared cat?
OK, I’ll take that instead.

I’m pretty sure Oy! is a Democrat. Does she get off without a smiting just because she isn’t going to the Convention?
I don’t want a smiting. I just want a strange kitten! (And yes, I am almost always a Democrat)
ETA: But if you’re fresh out, I’ll take the cat with four ears. Better yet, the Maine Coon cats with the double toes!

I’d have named it Damien.

Hehe…if I ever get a Sphinx cat, I’m naming it either Stitch or Gollum…

That is possibly the only thing that could make me regret that I’m not American - that I couldn’t vote for Prince.

Before you can vote for Prince, you have to purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka.

What the hell is that and why did I have to look at it?

GOP Storm Warning - Gustav poses potential threat to convention
[/QUOTE]
Perhaps they’d like to wait until the hurricane season (June 1 to November 30) is over before having their convention. Isn’t this behavior just a little too much scaredy-cats, even for Republicans? I mean, the convention is in Minnesota, isn’t it? Not a lot of danger there, and it isn’t like they’ve ever been concerned for anyone else.

I think they’re more concerned about the convention getting bigfooted by hurricane coverage, as well as the bad image of appearing to party while the Gulf states drown.
