I... I guess it could be worse?

... I'm not entirely sure how, though. Interpretive dance, maybe?

At least they're trying to get the proceedings out to the public... I guess?

Actually looking at the thing (though not listening, not running sound at th'mo), I have to say I find the coloration and construction of the puppets suspicious. Is it coincidence that the puppet on the stand is both of caucasian skin tone and the most human looking?

Obama seems to be unworried.

... also possibly somewhat condescending toward SC voters, heh.

What do you people think of naturism?

I think it's not the best of decisions to make in certain geographical areas and during certain activities, but am otherwise uncommitted. Haven't exactly had much (if any, really.) interaction with it, either.

I'm rather fond of clothes, though, on a personal level. Pockets are very useful and concealing certain physical tells in relation to muscle movement, etc, make the paranoiac in me happy. Also mosquitoes. And ringworms, and so forth, and so on. Nudity in a swamp isn't the wisest of choices to make, for most people. Bad enough when any skin is uncovered, in my experience

It's raining hard enough the sound is blocking out the noise from the TV noisebox in the other room. Also means it's probably going to get cold for a few days again, soon. Which is nice. Florida's apparently given up on having what passes for its winter this year, so those few days it actually cools off are desperate blessings.

... now I'm actually almost curious. Would people actually buy a crappy AoS knockoff -- or, to be more charitable, a severely limited in scope AoS variant? Though don't mistake me, I still think of DotA-style as a horrific degeneration of the AoS type map, especially its potential. Not that they aren't alright for what they are, but they're like a limbless blind puppy with mange that could have been a giant firebreathing wolf with wings of raw plasma.

I have trouble seeing that many people would be willing to actually buy DotA, LoL, or HoN straight up, though. Free with cash shop, sure, but between the legendarily crappy community (Not that most online game communities aren't that way, but still) and the vicious skill barrier I have trouble seeing 'em selling worth a flip. Cash shop is a lot safer from the profit perspective, methinks.

So question for folks more on top of this than I: Is there a centralized resource for transcripts of all this tomfoolery? Speeches, debates, attack ads, etc?

I just heard Gingrich implicitly claim responsibility for all the jobs created during his period as speaker, which was like ahahaha wtfd00d because that kind of claim makes the brain totally jump tracks into leetspeech incredulity. Being able to read this stuff at a leisurely pace (read: Having enough time to pick my jaw up off the ground from the sheer effrontery of this bovine excretion and start paying attention again) and without having to deal with what these people actually sound like would be incredibly nice.

Ah, sorry, I was talking 'public' as in 'public park,' not 'open to the public for this event' kind of thing. Yanno', civic centers, town hall, stuff like that. M'well aware a lot of meeting type stuff is held in churches, just surprised that government related events were.

That surprisingly doesn't happen in the county I'm in, even though it's very small, inundated with churches, and about as bible thumping as they come.

Just color me surprised that was even allowed to happen, really. I'd've expected a bigger stink to have been raised about it before now. Separation o'church and state and all that rot. Which I guess is why someone was calling for it, yeah.
