DWL - Swiss Cheese Is To Blame

DWL - Swiss Cheese Is To Blame

Roberts and Everything Else

Still waiting for the techno toy to return from Washington, where Pentagon scientists are disassembling it to discover the secrets of its magical magickness. (That just seems the right way to spell magickness.) It's kinda like losing a limb. So, Tyler Mason's Dinosaurs With Lasers continues! Style is his trademark indeed.

I watched two hours of the Robert's confirmation hearing on C-Span the other day. I must say, he's holding up well under pressure. This is an enormously politicized issue, his becoming the Chief Justice, and there's a lot of pressure on him to satisfy the... democrats? Ha! I saw a tough bunch of questions fired at him by Senator Russell Feingold (D-Wisconsin) skillfully avoided. Questions on the subject of civil liberties, race and gender equality, so on. I've heard sighs of relief that he's not some uber-conservative maniac, but to be honest, I doubt Bush could pass someone like that when half the republicans in Congress are scowling at him (because they have to, to save face over the Katrina thing). He is a firm believer in the law and precident, and will rule fairly, but fair is subjective, and what's fair for the gander may not be fair for the goose. I can't shake the feeling that Robert's is a good choice for subtle but permanent influence on the highest court in the land. He's got a good legal mind, but you can be lawful good, lawful neutral or lawful evil. And I'm going to geek hell.

Outside of that, things are sweet. Bush is taking much earned flak from all sides. School is going well (though I am having trouble affording my text books, but I hope to resolve that without more charity from family relations. Pride and all that). I'm thinking more and more about this Western I want to write/draw. I should talk to Professor Noel about that. He seems like the kind of guy that'd have some interesting things to say on the subject of the Old West.

With that, my dearest readers, I will leave you until next time. Your homework assignment, rent Death To Smoochy. Good night!
