I say we take off an nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

No, not Oregon. Oregon is nice. Let's nuke Texas.

If we're going to nuke any place in the US I say it should be Ontario.

Meh. It'll all be over in a couple of hours, save for the legal wrangling.

You should do it Irish style. We've made election counting into an unmissable spectator sport that drags on and on and on.

A local story with great implications: Maryland has a same-sex marriage referendum. While it's already become legal in some other states via their state legislatures, Maryland might be the first one to have a majority of voters legalize same-sex marriage at the ballot box. It's expected to pass, but a similar measure failed in California in 2008. We'll see. :pop:

Gee, I've never heard of Zulu Time. Is that centered on Rourke's Drift?
