No, really folks, it's getting too serious around here. In the interest of sillynasity, everyone is required to watch the following inspirational, multiple-choice, sillynastic video...revisited, that is:

Jesus!
Today was a feel good day...for me...and millions of other Americans. Most of us feel good, because President Obama called for non-partisan politics to solve our very real problems. I actually saw die-hard Republican politicians in agreement with him. So what the hell is Senator John Cornyn's problem (R-Texas ((where else?)) )? Jesus...he should have gotten on the fucking helicopter with the Bushes. No more asshole.
Here's an article I picked up on VOA News.

A single U.S. senator is threatening to delay the expected confirmation of Senator Hillary Clinton as secretary of state when the Senate convenes later Tuesday.
Unanimous consent votes are possible Tuesday on various Cabinet nominees of President Barack Obama. But a Republican senator from the southern state of Texas, John Cornyn, said he will not give such consent for Senator Clinton.
Cornyn said he is not satisfied with Clinton's responses to questions about her husband's foundation.
Former U.S. President Bill Clinton runs a charitable organization called the Clinton Foundation. Cornyn said he wants Senator Clinton to increase oversight of Mr. Clinton's international fundraising efforts to prevent governments from trying to sway U.S. policy through donations.
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Thursday approved Ms. Clinton's nomination as the next secretary of state by a vote of 16-1. The full Senate was expected to confirm her nomination Tuesday shortly after President Obama's inauguration.
If Senator Cornyn does indeed withhold his consent, a full roll call vote likely will be held on Wednesday. Ms. Clinton is expected to receive bipartisan support for her confirmation at that time.
I think I need to go to bed early...maybe the whole damned thing just ain't gonna work. My head hurts.

Beyond Ready
It's Monday night...10:30 here. I am very tired and headed to bed. I was going to post this, first thing tomorrow morning. However, I simple can't wait. So, jumping the proverbial gun, here's something I've been saving for a couple of months now...for January 20th:
I'm getting up early because my daughter and I plan to watch the entire inaugural ceremony tomorrow. She's almost as excited as I.

Adios, Arevidirty, So Long Chump
To quote my grandfather: "you shouldn't wish your life away, boy." Sometimes I beg to differ with him. Sometimes it's something worth wishing away. And sometimes it's worth losing a shoe.
ONE MORE DAY!
ONE MORE DAY!
