    so you're not advising blowing a j in front of a statie on wendsday, inshahallah?

    No power

    an initiative/ballot measure has the same power as a congressionaly enacted law, and like those laws, can contain a sunset provision or not (usually not) - but the congress can always pass new laws to alter existing legislation, including such measures, leaving the people only the recourse to repeat the initiative - congress can also pretty effectively fail to fund a measure too, assuming it needs cash to function forking checks n' balances...
  5. interesting that the two of us were at opposite ends of the dog-spectrum on the same day - condolences - i'm sure you'd have rather been able to make the what-have-you was it that gold n' white owl w/ the huge face? saw that guy this summer and was quite impressed, the only time i'd seen one out there.
  6. no different free vs aid - they love pin scars but generally are just as good, if not better, than standard nuts in all spots - expensive, but they're all i use now.
  7. jesus-fuck, fall rains w/o fail, week-end or work-wracked days all wrecked by the falling damps - time to foresake the topside for the dyanamite again, before the snows sequestrate that subterranean pleasure passage and leave me nothing but aid-climbing in common trashbags i suppose i coulda spent another saturday at home, but the recent invasion of a puppy into my previously at best moderately tranquil family-scene has me pissed no end, so off i went, pausing at the burger king in recently re-fashioned camas for oil-cans of fosters ("it's auuuuuuuustralian fore budweiiiser!") and to secure legal council, who piled into my ride w/ bins of bullshit bent space towards bingen, cruising through the incessant cloud-murk, past beacon all shrouded in mist - the navicomputer rumbling around on the dashboard called for questionable turns, but i don't quarrel w/ technology, man, so we had a pleasant ramble through fuck-knows-where through the killing fields of fall before eventually being shat out on a recognizable road no snow yet, but the last mile of the track muddy as all hell - couple cars already in the lot w/ our crack'o'afternoon arrival, so we were assured of company into the first passage after 1, spent 4 hours underground, an easy pace, stumble-fucking through the sterile, darkened rubble-strewn wasteland betrayed by my recent coleman-lantern purchase - never had one before, nor mucked around w/ one once and managed to forget matches or extra mantles so promptly fucked it all up - is it dangerous to burn a coleman w/ one mantle broken through at the bottom, venting a great propane jet towards the center? sure seemed so, so it got set at the cave mouth and we managed w/ double headlamps and an led-lantern not much else worth mentioning, 'sides them boy-o's we eventually made the awkward acquaintance of had a really nifty set of speicialized caving ladders, 2 thin steel wires w/ plastic rungs, 30-some odd feet long but w/ eyes on the end for clamping on another set, should you have them - woulda made handling the jugging transition from free-hanging to surmounting the lip more pleasant, but as it turned out we didn't much need it as some enterprising parcel of fools managed to cart a couple long timbers all the way down to the crystal ballroom, along w/ handfuls of spikes to hammer in hand and foot-holds, such that you can circumvent the hard-part while still clapped on to the fixed line fun n' games n' pouring rain on the way-back, the red devil's engine rattling like slow-death, starved of oil - looking forward to another return and actually getting to the bottom of the thing...

  12. no argument from me - certainly a case though of were the symptom (being in a fucked-up family) can easily be mistaken for the cause (living in a fucked-up community)

  16. the modern mantra might run more like "wal-mart greeters of the world unite" as the economy sure hasn't offered that many other solutions for the down-sized n' downtrodden... FOUR MORE YEARS! sheeeit, romney wins and the main difference'll will only be the greeters won't be able to get health-care...
