Happy 9/11 everyone!

qotd: How will you avoid satellite surveillance come October 1st?
bonus question (for non-USers): What word do you most often misspell?

I [wrote something weird here about sex with aliens, etc. It made no sense] will hide under trees, I guess.

If you're dog knows what you're thinking, whispering won't help (besides, they've got great ears)

What's going to happen on October 1st? I'm paranoid enough that I feel like we're being watched already, altough I'm boring enough to feel as though 'they' already switched channels to watch someone else.

QotD: I won't avoid it. FOX is already paying me a million dollars to spy on me via satellite for the newest reality show, Hidden Eye in the Sky. Unfortunately, that means millions have to now listen to my discordant recording sessions.

QotD: I will raise my Fed Cred to the sky and then continue to bang prostitutes in alleyways and run dogfights with the knowledge that I'm one of them.

OK, I see. Maybe I'll just wear a hat that says "whatchoo lookin' at?" on top when I go outside. Of course, it may not be long before they're inside too, and Niveous will be watching us in our living rooms. Zoinks!

At work. No show tonight, and no ideas for the upcoming fight. So I'm gonna do I don't know what.

QotD: My work in this world won't be done until they launch JimStar 1.

As long as there's a Republican in office, well, they never want to come to Little Beirut all that often (as the last 3 Republican presidents have named Portland, Oregon). The riots, demonstrations, and synchronized vomiting whenever they do come make it a little uncomfortable for them to pull off looking good in the media.

PDX History wrote:And now a quick PDX history lesson, compliments of Chuck Palahniuk's Fugitives and Refugees. Keep reading. You'll like this. I promise. At the very least, it will explain the "Little Beirut" reference above.

"Those were the good old days, when Ronald Reagan and George Bush (the elder) dreaded coming here so much they called Portland "Little Beruit." A presidential whistle-stop meant anarchists would gather along SW Broadway, outside the president's suite at the Hilton Hotel. They'd eat mashed potatoes, regular white ones, or potatoes dyed red or blue with food coloring. Then, when the motorcade arrived, they drank Syrup of Ipecac and puked big Red, White and Blue barf puddles all over the hotel.

Okay, okay, what nobody knew is stomach acid makes blue food coloring turn green. So it looked like a protest against Italy. It's the thought that counts.

I suspect Portland has been tagged as a national anarchy reserve, just for the face-saving aspect of the Party.

Not that it matters much, the B has their files on me already and I use traceable plastic regularly instead of anonymous cash. Ah, the price of misspent youth.

My day brightened considerably when UPS showed up. Just got my new SF t-shirt. Yay!

Mind if I market that?

Back when I had a cafepress store (actually it probably still exists but I haven't checked it in years) I had a hat design which said "i can see you" on the forehead.

I also had a shirt with a picture of itself.

Well, that's certainly thinking inside the box Fluff.
You should also make a hat that says "I can't see you" on the back.

One of my T-shirt designs that never came to be, as in most of my world shattering ideas that would change man and woman kind, was a T-shirt with a seat belt across the chest in case you forget to buckle up.

Well Chris, when the cops pull you over to check on that seatbelt, you can just lean down and show them your newly marketed hat.

I'll just be happy that someone is paying attention to me.
