There is no doubt. The vowel usage between "him" & "whom" is quite distinct. He says “him”. There is no doubt. The vowel usage between “him” & “whom” is quite distinct.

So don't vote for the fucking 3' rabbity thing. It's deranged, demented, and otherwise delusional. It's also a silly-assed, pious prick. If the 6' talking dog is named Buddy, have it tear the 3' rabbity thing limb from limb. Please.

I found a picture of the Yellow Rose, who appears to be kissing some similarly male suited type whom I don't recognize (this is because I can't stand to look at any of them). Is that it? Who is the Nutmeg Anomaly and why is he? I am missing something.

I found out about the eclipse too late to run outside, and I'm not sure I'd have been able to see it as well as those pictures, due to being in the Central Time Zone and whatnot. And don't knock tess about playing video games - any student working on a paper of any length needs an outlet of <i>some</i> kind. Mine usually happened to be watching Coutndown, The Daily Show and The Colbert Report (and then the reruns the same night) instead of writing those pesky papers, so to each their own.

You are assuming that I’m getting off my duff for anything. Besides, who can resist a 6′ talking dog and a 3′ rabbity thing running for office?

We'd start at the campground, walk down Grouse Run Trail to the pond, perhaps do some ice skating and take Moss Trail up to the shop for some Maker's Mark and to warm up. Then everyone would head off to the Artemas Town Hall for the inaugural ball. It can be catered by the Road Kill Cafe. Sounds good to me. Like our current President, Jackson was a “populist” (he appealed to people who did not know what “populist” meant). That reminds me of an old Mad Magazine definition of Liberal and Conservative. A liberal is someone who secretly wishes William F Buckley was on his side. A conservative is someone who agrees with William F Buckley, but has no idea what he is saying.
