an interview with Amber Benson.

your 6 year old nephew calling to ask that you pick him up so he can come over and watch Buffy.

the Constitution should be amended to allow an annual Quality Assurance vote on each individual member of our respective Congressional delegations, one that gives us the very legal and very unappealable option to check "Execute Immediately" (the other options would be 'Acceptable' and 'Unacceptable, but we'll give him or her a chance to improve and then probably execute him or her next year when they fail'). if a majority of votes are cast for immediate execution, the Congressperson is then dragged kicking and screaming (and that will be written in too. they must kick and scream as they're dragged) into the town square. the now-former-constituents can come by, spit their grievances and kick the former-Congressman in the 'nads or the former-Congresswoman wherever it is that women are reeeeallly sensitive about being kicked (i haven't a clue where that is). after a few days of that, they should then be executed in a painful and not-too-quick manner. all of his or her property should be confiscated and sold off, with all proceeds being divided equally among the former-constituents.

i think this plan will make our Congressional representatives more accountable to us.

one of the great things about having closely-shorn hair is that you can take a nap at lunch and not have to worry about it mussing up your hair.
