cim's crazy parents take #1,600,042

someone want to tell me why the package i just opened containing a box of channukah candles and a wrapped channukah present was labelled "food and kitten suppleyes [sic]" on the customs slip?

[pause]

oh god. what if my channukah present really is food and kitten supplies?

election results

npr has a colour- and symbol-coded map of the us election results divided into senate, house and governor tabs.

i made the mistake of going to alabama public radio first and checking out the alabama results alone. ugh, thinking about how conservative it is there makes me feel slimy and skin-crawly.
