How do you plan to spend Election Night?

[CatWoman]

I'm going to hang out with Mr. and Mrs. Ulysses, Mr. Kitty and Scarlett. :D

[bif]

1. Going out to hear some live jazz

At a local bar.

[Bluzmann57]

5. Wow. It'd be nice to hear jazz

in a local bar. Have fun. Think I'll watch Monday Night Football and hang out at DU.

[Ron Green]

26. That's a coincidence. I'm going to play some live jazz...

at a local bar.

:toast:

[bif]

34. You don't happen to live in the Detroit area do you?

This is at the Cadieux Cafe on Detroit's East Side.

[Ron Green]

50. No, I'm on the Oregon coast, playing with a quartet in a little resort

town.

[fertilizeonarbusto]

2. Hanging with my Kitty

Roasting a chicken (have to keep from going crazy), watching TV.

[lumberingbear]

72. Be careful and don't get too excited about the results....

and roast your kitty by mistake!!! :silly:

[eyesroll]

3. Packing.

Moving Nov. 3.

[MissMillie]

4. I'll be home, doing the dinner dishes and

watching the election results.


I think I'll take Wednesday off.

[CottonBear]

10. I'll be the stable with my horse until about 7:30 pm.

Being out there keeps me sane. No politics there; just quiet time in the country taking care of my filly. Then I'll go home to my husband and kitties, have dinner and hunker down for a long night of watching election results on C-Span and DU.

[eddiebrowns]

6. Phone Banking and eating cold pizza

It'll all be worth it when we celebrate a JK victory-somebody better damn well give me a Guiness at the victory party!:beer:

[ramapo]

7. Trying to divert my attention

from Election Day

[Rjnerd]

8. Do you mean tonight, or tommorow night?

Election eve, like christmas eve? Tonight, I have to teach, otherwise I would be phone banking. Tommorow night, after I finish driving in NH, I will try to get to Copley Sq, to join in the cellebration.

[CatWoman]

9. hmmmmmmm

you're right - gotta edit my headline

thanks

:hi:

[GingerSnaps]

11. I don't

I have midterms and my classes are over at 10:00pm tomorrow night. :cry:

[VelmaD]

12. Hanging out at my polling location...

waiting for the last voter to get done. I'm poll-watching tomorrow among other things. After that, victory party down on 6th street. Woohoo!

[arcane1]

13. stoned with my cats

:silly:

oh hell, election NIGHT. I'll be at a party, drunk in despair or elation, I'm not sure which yet :toast:

[CatWoman]

22. FATHER!!!!!

Did you get Dennis Kucinich???? :hi:

[arcane1]

33. I wish I did

he was cuter than the real thing :(

:hi:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

35. i really hope its elation

anyway wish we could have kept dk

[arcane1]

37. indeed

though by the time I find out, I'll already be drunk :silly:

but I don't expect to know the winner tomorrow night anyway, so... :shrug:

stop talking about DK, I'll end up feeling sad for his chair :P

[feistydem]

14. Drinking champaigne with about 500 of my closest friends at a rally

for Kerry on election night!

Drunk and happy liberals: If that's not a fun crowd I don't know what is!

[ThePittsburghKid]

15. I'm going door to door

for the Kerry folks tomorrow, trying to get the vote out. I'm gonna start at 7:30am, take some breaks so I can go to class, after class I'm going back out again until the polls close.

And then I'm cracking open a beer to celebrate the victory.

[greyfox]

16. Gonna cuddle with wifey

and watch the CATS dvd (my daughter went to the play and bought it for us) and ABOUT A BOY (movie) and whatver else I have (over 2000 movies). I will awaken Wednesday to see what has taken place.

[CatWoman]

27. Who's a Jellicle cat?

Are you blind when you're born? Can you see in the dark?
Can you look at a king? Would you sit on his throne?
Can you say of your bite that it's worse than your bark?
Are you cock of the walk when you're walking alone?




Because Jellicles are and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles would
Jellicles would and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do




When you fall on your head, do you land on your feet?
Are you tense when you sense there's a storm in the air?
Can you find your way blind when you're lost in the street?
Do you know how to go to the Heaviside Layer?




Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do




Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant?
Familiar with candle, with book and with bell?
Were you Whittington's friend? The Pied Piper's assistant?
Have you been an alumnus of heaven or hell?




Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats



We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze
We can turn double somersaults, bounce on a tire
We can run up the wall, we can swing through the trees
We can balance on bars, we can walk on a wire




Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles can and Jellicles do



Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats



Can you sing at the same time in more than one key
Duets by Rossini and waltzes by Strauss
And can you (as cats do) begin with a C
That always triumphantly brings down the house




Jellicle cats are queen of the nights
Singing at astronomical heights
Handling pieces from the Messiah
Hallelujah, angelical choir




The mystical divinity of unashamed felinity
Round the cathedral rang "Vivat!"
Life to the everlasting cat!

Feline, fearless, faithful and true
To others who do what




Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicle cats sing Jellicle chants
Jellicles old and Jellicles new
Jellicle song and Jellicle dance





Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats




Practical cats, dramatical cats
Pragmatical cats, fanatical cats
Oratorical cats, delphioracle cats
Skeptical cats, dispeptical cats
Romantical cats, pedantical cats
Critical cats, parasitical cats
Allegorical cats, metaphorical cats
Statistical cats and mystical cats
Political cats, hypocritical cats
Clerical cats, hysterical cats
Cynical cats, rabbinical cats




Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle bells that Jellicles ring
Jellicle sharps and Jellicle flats
Jellicle songs that Jellicles sing




Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats




There's a man over there with a look of surprise,
As much as to say, "Well now how about that!"
Do I actually see with my own very eyes
A man who's not heard of a Jellicle cat?
What's a Jellicle cat? What's a Jellicle cat?

[greyfox]

54. I recall....

my daughter mentioning that cat hahah... AND that one named something like Tum Tum Tummy or Rummy or whatever ... came off the stage and danced with her... she almost fainted! HAHAH She is 19, so you know she was excited.

[CatWoman]

58. Rum Tum Tigger

:D


The Rum Tum Tigger is a curious cat

If you offer me pheasant, I'd rather have grouse
If you put me in a house, I would much prefer a flat
If you put me in a flat, I would rather have a house
If you set me on a mouse, then I only want a rat
If you set me on a rat, then I'd rather chase a mouse

The Rum Tum Tigger is a curious cat
And there isn't any need for me to shout it
For he will do as he do do
And there's nothing doing about it

The Rum Tum Tigger is a terrible bore

When you let me in, then I want to go out
I'm always on the wrong side of every door
And as soon as I'm at home, then I'd like to get about
I like to lie in the bureau drawer
And I make such a fuss if I can't get out

The Rum Tum Tigger is a curious cat

And there isn't any need for you to doubt it
For he will do as he do do
And there's no doing anything about it

The Rum Tum Tigger is a curious beast

My disobliging ways are a matter of habit
If you offer me fish, then I always want a feast
When there isn't any fish, then I won't eat rabbit
If you offer me cream, then I sniff and sneer
For I only like what I find for myself
So you'll catch me in it right up to my ears
If you put it away on the larder shelf

The Rum Tum Tigger is artful and knowing
The Rum Tum Tigger

Doesn't care for a cuddle
But I'll leap upon your lap in the middle of your sewing
For there's nothing I enjoy like a horrible muddle

The Rum Tum Tigger is a curious cat
The Rum Tum Tigger doesn't care for a cuddle
The Rum Tum Tigger is a curious cat
And there isn't any need for me to spout it

For he will do as he do do

And there's nothing doing about it

[gratuitous]

17. Well, I just bought the Ren & Stimpy DVDs

I hear Powdered Toastman calling my name!

Happy, happy, joy, joy.

[Swamp Rat]

20. I have a bunch of Ren & Stimpy episodes on VHS that I tapes way back when

How much was the DVD set?

[gratuitous]

28. Gaaah!

Warn a person when you're going to post scary stuff like that, Swamp_Rat! Halloween was yesterday.

I got the set for $36 at Borders (10% off the $40 retail price). There are apparently some extras, though I haven't put the discs into the player yet. They're supposed to be "uncensored" versions, whatever that means.

Ren & Stimpy in deathless digital! Ya-freakin'-hoo!

[Swamp Rat]

32. WOW! Uncensored Ren & Stimpy! ... happy happy joy joy!

Sorry about the "Halloween" pic, but today is the Day of the Dead. Tomorrow we fumigate!

[FizzFuzz]

64. hah I love this one, its so hateable.

and the little bitty "eat bugs" comment on the side. perfect.

The annthrax coulter...ewwww. shudder... blech! Geez, her hand is gigantic.

I like what you do with colors and whitish highlight lines. Wish I knew how to do photoshop.

:D

[ThePittsburghKid]

23. Do those DVDs have added footage?

I heard that the DVD set would have some expanded episodes, plus a "lost episode", but I haven't seen them anywhere.

[Sequoia]

57. Lucky you!

I loved watching them. I liked "My Shiny Blue Friend" (too much TV watching), and "The Royal Canadian Kitlted Yaksmen". And, whenever I see photos of Bush pretending to work on his ranch hoisting logs, the Log Song always comes to mind. Love it.

[Fenris]

18. On drugs.

[CatWoman]

24. LOL

And that night is different from any other???

}(

[Fenris]

25. No it does not.

:D

[BiggJawn]

19. Hopefully in bed...

"Knocking-off" one for every state Kerry wins.

Hope i'm so sore I can hardly piss Wednesday morning.....

[Maiden England]

21. comatose

[marew]

29. Drinking white zinfandel and eating vanilla ice cream

[woofless]

30. The local bar/cafe in the mountains.

A nice mix of retireds, Canadians, Veterans, loggers, construction workers, snow boarders, trust fund 20somethings, wage earners of all kinds. I am very encouraged by the intensity of interest in the younger men and women. They are eager and willing to engage in conversations with old farts like me and we all learn something from each other. Should be a great night.

[nicolemrw]

31. at an alanon meeting

but after that curled up on the couch staring at the returns on the tube.

[faithnotgreed]

39. good for you.... what channel will you be watching?

[nicolemrw]

42. probably pbs

around these parts thats chanel 13.

[faithnotgreed]

49. thats what im leaning towards too. i thought (for a minute) about

watching nbc but just couldnt deal with that thought. i wanted to watch them because i think they have highest ratings, and i wanted to see what everyone was watching when the kerry states are announced one after another.
but i just dont think i can take tim russert for too long.

be well and go kerry!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

36. crying....its been the pattern since the weekend

[nickgutierrez]

38. What's wrong?

:(

[La Lioness Priyanka]

40. many things...but it will all be better if kerry wins the damned elections

[nicolemrw]

45. i know that feeling

hang in there, fellow ny-er. cuddle the kittens. everythings better when you cuddle a kitten.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

46. thank you....

[faithnotgreed]

41. im very sorry to hear that.... prayers and best wishes

are sent for you.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

47. thank-you

[arcane1]

44. :(

;(

:hug:

[DrZeeLit]

43. Join "Walk the Vote" as faculty walk students to the polls. It's the first

time many have ever voted. Next, I stop by the public library. I keep a nifty "hold" list and one arrived! Then, I have to do a little marketing -- for the basics, snacks, and veggies.

OH... AND I VOTE!!!!!!

Later, we are going to the movies to see RAY.

Even though I can't stand the suspense and really want to bury my head under a pillow after taking some Vicodin that I have left from a severe infection (TMI) I suffered earlier this year, I will try NOT to do this. I might want to stay focused.

I will check in here often. I have no t.v. and will rely on DU and maybe turn on NPR once-in-awhile.


I'm feeling confident. But even though I know the outcome of some movies, I still get a few butterflies.

Kerry On!

[Dan-W]

48. Enjoying my "friday night" with a few(?) cold ones.

I'm off Wed & Thurs. So, I'll watch the returns...then celebrate the Kerry/Edwards victory!

[noiretextatique]

51. i'm having dinner at my favorite thai restaurant

with a friend, then we're going to my favorite bar for karoake. if i hear any political talk, i will politely move somewhere else. i want to wait until wednesday to find out the good (or the bad and the ugly).

[FizzFuzz]

65. sounds like a great idea...I better talk to Mr Fuzz and make a plan.

I've been computering way tooooo much last couple days.

I'm pretty sure I won't watch as the results come in. I can't stand the anxious feeling like my stomach is gonna jump out my mouth.

:hi:

on edit: woo! this one just got me to 900 posts. neat! :D

[noiretextatique]

78. hey congrats on 900!!

i'm a nervous wreck today...i couldn't bear to just sit and watch :scared: i can barely concentrate at work today. i went to vote this morning, but the line was way too long, so i will go just before lunchtime.
a nice meal, a nice bottle of merlot, and bad karoke singing...that should calm me down.
hope you and mr. fuzz have a nice evening too :hi:

[FizzFuzz]

79. I hear ya...er, I READ ya.

boy that was a new joke, bet its the first time anyone's ever said it here. But I am such a pioneer of humor, its to be expected. Hyuk hyuk.

Geez, I'm giddy!

I'll be getting home from work around 7 or 8. I will avoid hanging around the department as much as possible--a den of born agains who are very sweet but...they need to find a new soft drink, if you know what I mean.

Mr Fuzz is sick so we won't be going out. Think I might rent a movie and alternate that with sending out spiritual vibes...send strength to the truth and light, ya know....

Thanks for the congrats and have a great evening!!

[jonnyblitz]

52. hopefully Copley Square in Boston for Kerry's acceptance

speech if the mood strikes me to jump in the car for the hour drive then deal with crowds! :hi:

[faithnotgreed]

55. what an amazing opportunity! you gotta go andmake sure to tell us

allllllll about it since i doubt the tv people will share much of it with us. not enough of it anyway

[jmm]

69. Hopefully I'll be there too.

I had requested the day off of work but my job has too many damn departments and my requet was messed up. My only recoure now is to be suspended so I sent a long email to evaluations today asking them to suspend me. I won't find out until the morning if they have. So if everything works out some of you just might catch a glimpse of me in the crowd of people people cheering as Kerry makes his acceptance speech.

[lauralei]

53. I don't know what to do

I'm convinced Kerry has this sewn up tight... but I don't know if I can watch the election results! I have no fingernails left as it is!

I rented a bunch of DVD's over the weekend that I didn't get to watch. So, I may just hang out in my jammies, watch the video's and turn on the news at 11pm. (sticking to my resolution is another question altogether!!!)

[faithnotgreed]

56. you can check in here or tv and take a quick look.

maybe 11 is better if you want to just take one look! and movies are a good way to pass time until then


im checking out cspan or pbs

[qnr]

59. Going crazy on the bus - bleagh n/t

[flamingyouth]

60. I'll be right here on DU

And probably on Xanax, but that's beside the point. :D

[Parrcrow]

63. deleting, locking, banning

and celebrating.


and drinking

[flamingyouth]

71. Delete - lock - ban

Lather - rinse - repeat. :D

[2bfree]

61. Both of the boys will be voting this year.

This will be my youngest sons first time to vote in a major election. We will all go together to vote and then head out to a favorite hangout for pizza and beer. After that I will be sitting by the TV hoping for the best. Please let me have a good reason to call my Dad and say "if only Mom were alive to see this day"!

[ronnykmarshall]

62. We are having a "block party"

on the floor of my condo.

I'll probably been on the phone a lot too calling my best friends and my Mom.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

66. Going to a watch party over at the Holiday Inn...

...with the young democrats.
Duckie

[SarahB]

67. There's no school tomorrow, so...

Sitting here coughing and trying to hide from them like I did all weekend. :puke:
(And making my way down to the local high school to cast my vote of course.) I also suspect yelling at the TV!

[marigold20]

68. Going to a friend's house,

drinking lots of beer, ordering pizza. I'm feeling good about this election! Maybe I'll drink a beer for every swing state won by Kerry.

[UrbScotty]

70. On DU, with NPR in the background.

I will probably watch some TV, too.

[buddhamama]

73. hosting a celebration party

:toast:

[youngred]

74. Aren't you just the luckiest thing

Say hi to them for me.

I will be getting back from Pennsylvania, watching returns and getting quite inebriated followed by protesting at the White House (no matter the result)

[Seabiscuit]

75. Changing diapers.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

76. God knows

Most likely glued to my TV into the wee hours of the morning.

[Dastard Stepchild]

77. Me and my grad school pals are all getting together...

There will be beer, snacks, and a television playing a prominent role. I'm nervous and excited....

If we win, lots of this: :toast:

If we lose, even more... though without the smiles. More like desperate chugging to heal the pain.

(edited for spelling)

[pagerbear]

80. Have a date with someone new

But it might not last too long, since he doesn't feel terribly well. Probably just be dinner. After that I might go to The Center to the election night party or just go home and watch DU.
