Okay, so I just discovered Billionaires for Bush, which is hilarious. Or at least, would be, if their subject were not so serious. But it's a great site for distilling down to a few simple sentences what Bush has been up to in the White House, including some stuff I hadn't found on other sites, but checked to find it's accurate. And what a great protest idea; even the action letters are "in character" and very funnily barbed. :) I love it. Check it out and see if you don't think it's hysterical...unless, of course, you're a Shrubbery. If you're a Shrubbery, you won't think it's funny, I'm guessing, since most of the Shrub's fans don't seem to have much of a sense of humor about this sort of thing...unless the Great Shrub himself is making the joke, at which point, it's okay to laugh. No WMD's under the Oval Office desk? Ha ha ha ha ha ha, that's so *funny*! But I guess that's understandable, and it really doesn't matter what side of the political fence you're on, if you rabidly support your party or its candidate, you aren't able to laugh at jokes aimed at it.

Sign in the pet store window yesterday, when I walked down the hill to Baskin Robbins for the much-touted and reasonably okay Princess Fiona cotton candy swirl flavor: "NOW TAKING APPLICATIONS FOR KITTENS".

Boy. Kittens just don't get a chance to be kittens anymore, do they? Force them to get a job and grow up to be cats before they've even had a chance to play with a proper ball of string. What tragedy is this economy coming to? It's sad, really. Oh, the felinity.

Or, something.

Peace out,
Katie
