20 year Maineiac From Away.

N.B.: I do not automatically follow back.
Five minutes after watching this weeks episode of The Simpsons, my wife came back into the room and said "Now I have the tune to The Pina Colada Song stuck in my but, but the lyrics are Hotel California."
After humming a few lines, I said "Fuck it actually works, too!!"

You're welcome.

Yes, Aftyn Behn lost, but it was always a longshot.
HOWEVER
The small margin of vicotorey gives the GOP a pyrrhic victory at best.

We have got to keep this momentum going!

My first exposure to her was when my brother played the St Anne's concert CD for me. So damn good. (I knew about Broken English and that she hung with the Velvet Underground, but that was about it.)

He need to be impeached again. BUT! NOT without first quietly polling the Senate to see if there is support for conviction. Because immpeachment is impotent without conviction.

The problem with the first and second times was that the House leaders who pushed them knew there would be no conviction.
