uh huh.

To take this election to a truly and abysmally shallow place.

...Rahm Emanuel, Chief of Staff elect. You know, I can't honestly say I'd ever looked at a government official and thought, huh, but this is a huh.

Context: I mean, huh. I feel faintly dirty speaking thus of a politician. Yet a good dirty.

Kind of ashamed. Mostly not. My curiosity is pretty much focused on the following things:

1.) Treasury. Very curious. I mean, yes, presidential appointment is really honorable, but who the hell really wants that job right now?

ETA: For more on this, sheila_cpa goes over the current potentials here for mulling.

2.) What will happen to Lieberman. I think Lieberman is probably wondering the same thing.

3.) So. Alaska? What's up with that?

You know, I remember when writing here was a lot more interesting. Sadly, work is not necessarily busy but rather short, intense periods of activity followed by waiting for activity. I am stumped. Also, my boss wants to take a vacation and keeps mentioning places that involve either a.) warfare and strangely high casualty rates b.) crazy animals or c.) no running water for a million miles. I--the guy's belt matches his shoes, okay? He isn't going to make it without a toilet. I'm just saying, there's adventure and then there's, you know, sanitation. He doesn't believe me. I find this hilarious.

Yes, that was riveting. I know.

SEE LOOK THIS IS WHAT I WANT:

You guys got a band gazebo? Doesn't matter; we'll build one. Right in the band gazebo, that's where the President is going to drape his arm around the shoulder of some assistant D.A. we like. And you should have your camera with you, you should get a picture of that, 'cause that's gonna be the moment you're finished in Democratic politics. President Bartlet's a good man, he's got a good heart, he doesn't hold a grudge. That's what he pays me for.
