They'll Run Their Quill Pens Through It!

Thanks to mscongeniality for the 1776 iconage. AND for the need to make more of same.

Time to organize my icons and really assign them more specific uses, rather than the often too-vague ones I have had for so long.

Beethoven Symphonies 6-9

Now up for download at the BBC. This has been a Public Service Announcement. You may now return to your regularly scheduled lives.

O'Connor Gone

SCOTUS Associate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor has announced her retirement. George W. Bush said some of his very few true words ever when he said that she was a 'justice with integrity.' (MSTied by me, immediately, with "as opposed to whomever you'll cram down our throats.")

Chief Justice William Rehnquist, also rumored to be retiring, would just trade one right-leaning seat for another if he left. But O'Connor had the brain and the heart to enact honest and fair jurisprudence (for the most part), and when a right wingnut gets appointed, we'll be living in Bush's police state for years to come.

Damn. Damn. Damn. May Bush wake up one day, magically transformed into an African-American lesbian, trapped in a world of his own making.

Time to see what kind of lobbying needs to be done.
