We're going to fight about him now? He's dead, Jim. Ah, who am I kidding. A fight could break out on DU about apple pie. In fact, I'm sure some have.

It leads to obesity, diabetes, is a gateway drug to heroin, and sends a jingoistic message. And it's sexist! It's always MOM and apple pie. You never hear DAD and apple pie. And that's just scratching the surface.

By the time I got back from doing that, I was tagged for jury duty over in GD. A place that into which I rarely venture. After which I always wonder why I ever thought the level of discourse over there would ever improve.

Anyway, the jury duty involved some pissing contest involving Sr Chavez, and who could be "leftier than thou" in arguing over his demise. Sigh.

I may make this a short evening.

I got jury duty on one of the meta threads. That was early this morning I think. The thread is still going hot and heavy, btw. I should be safe from Chavez threads for tonight then.

the IDEALISTIC DUers who are grieving, have stayed out of their threads out of respect for THEM. I can't say much more, shhhh.
