HAPPY APPLE DAY
I'm hoping there is progresses towards my dream laptop, for purchase in 2010(?):
MacBook Air, 4gb RAM, 256gb SSD, Dual-DVI out - or better on any of those features.

Response to Joshua
So: conservatives never shout down liberals? You've never seen protestors yelling at a gay pride parade? You've never seen conservative marches on Washington that vilify and call for the destruction of the left? You can't dismiss them as not being conservative, because the religious right and the hawks are a core constituency of conservative power.
What you're doing would be like me condemning all conservatives just because the conservatives who go to the effort to show up at a Palin rally call Obama a terrorist. Just because conservatives attack me in the street.
If I were to judge conservatives by the most outspoken among them, I would be forced to conclude that they are incapable of making an argument that wasn't based on emotions, hated anyone who wasn't just like themselves, and that all conservatives think you're unpatriotic and a terrorist sympathizer or faggot if you disagree with them.
Luckily, I don't judge conservatives by the worse among them.
The right is getting angrier and angrier, now that they're out of power. McCain-Palin rallies demonstrate this. Who do you think is going to be protesting in the streets these next 8 years? It's going to swing as the pendulum of power swings. You're just used to seeing the left out of power, not in it.
I do accuse you of cherry picking and painting with too broad a brush. You can't see any incident without taking it as confirmation about what you already believe and are predisposed to think about groups of people. It drives me crazy.
UPDATED WITH PHOTOGRAPHICAL EVIDENCE OF CONSERVATIVES PROTESTING ME
I HAVE THUS SUCCESSFULLY PROVED THAT ALL CONSERVATIVES ARE MEAN SPIRITED LOL

The Wrongest Thing Ever
This sucks so much. They must have had actual requests from schools that caused them to set up an official program. Yuck.

Strange Dream
Then, it started getting even weirder. They kept finding other kids hidden in their house that I'd took pity on and invited over. Like, we'd be in the living room and all of a sudden we'd notice some kid hidding under the couch. Or in closets, just everywhere.
Drew and Janelle were very sympathetic and didn't want to force these kids to go back out on the streets, but by the end of the dream there were like 30 of us kids in their house and they were starting to panic about how to take care of us. They were very aggravated with me for putting them in the position of having to take in all these kids, but were too nice to say anything.
Then I woke up.

E:Strip Holiday Dinner
This post is just a heads up, I'll make another post in a month to nail down availability and the best times for everyone.
JJ's and India Gate have both worked out OK in the past. If the group is big enough I'll reserve a banquet room somewhere to make sure we have enough space. Any ideas along these lines, please comment!
Cheers,
Jim

Yak Shaving
You start out deciding to tidy your room and you realize that in order to do that you'll need some more trash bags, so you need to go to the shops, which will involve you getting out the car, but the car needs gas, so you'll need to go to the gas station first, which means you should probably find your gas discount card, which involves finding your keys, which are in the room somewhere... ( )
And ultimately, in order to tidy your room, you somehow end up shaving a yak.
You know it's happened to you too!
