Let's all take a collective deep breath and relax...
Close your eyes, gather your chi, and relax.

16. I think I'll just continue drinking.
:-( :cry: I keep remembering what my brother told my parents when Pinhead** was put back in power in '04, he said "How much damage could he do in the next 4 years, that he hasn't already done?" :rofl: :cry: How naive of my brother, right? :banghead:

13. Yes. That's exactly it Thanks for putting words into my mouth.
There's been no vote yet. There's nothing left but last minute calling, emailing and faxing.

Breath. Gather your chi. Relax.

19. Do you think there is any chance Alito can be stopped? I sure could use
some hope tonight.

14. No, I don't that that is what the OP means,
I think we are all on edge and feeling a lot of strong emotions right now, and need to step back a little.

I just went to make dinner, and getting away from all of this for that time made me feel much calmer.

12. Or better yet, find some humor in something.
Even if it's an "oh-shit-we're-completely-screwed" type of humor.

There are other battles ahead.

18. yes
we must not get blown away by this.

I've never been good at gathering my chi...it's all over the place as usual I'm sure. But thanks for being supportive in that basic elemental way. Appropriate message. The anxiety is palpable around here.

Look you guys--we will NOT give up. The road is hard--think of those who have gone before. But we have
the numbers, we have the guts, we have the truth.
