*snort* That was hilarious!

Brilliant. This IS me - I suffer from all the symptoms.

Drugs have their place in passive therapy but the best prescription for anxiety is strenuous, productive activity. Pitch in and get the Obama boat off the shoals and cruising again!

Deeply hilarious. Me, I'm on a steady drip of OxyClinton, which helps me feel better about the need for HRC supporters to get in line behind Obama.

I will stock up on those but your formulary is lacking "Nomomacaine".

This just in from Eastlake Avenue...

Stranger alert tip for

RX for Election Anxiety Disorder...

Citizen X was walking down Eastlake Avenue minding his own business.

Being the ever cognizant observer looking for any old excuse to qualify The Stranger support network during sweeps year for attention grabbing political fodder,

I duely noted the operation crime watch sign from the city in my memory banks which instructs the general public to report anything suspicious to the police;

( here insert The Stranger Slog )

and then promptly paid attention to what I was witnessing.

A man, in a grey hat was looking at a Mazda B2200 SE 5 pickup truck, dark blue in color 1 block south of Allison Street.

There the man, green shirt and scruffy whitish beard,

(no pubic hair was visable as he was wearing shorts)

was looking with intent at the Jack Ball on the antenna of said Mazda truck.

He pulled the Jack Ball off the truck antenna which had appeared to have lost his hat.

{Testimony under review: Did Jack Ball have a hat in the first place?}

The suspect then placed the Jack Ball without a hat under the bed liner of the pickups rear passenger side corner between the bedliner and the metal paint of the pickup bed.

The suspect then stepped away from the truck and observed the truck from approximately 10 to 15 feet.

Within minutes, a bald man came out of the business and started shouting "why?" ...." why?".....

( Upon memory recollection from a distance this individual looked like one of the Almost Live regular actors )

{Hint: it was not Ross Shaeffer}

The suspect immediately answered the bald man and said...

"Dude... I just ate a bunch of wild cyotestes-cilicybens from the phillipines and can't stomach the fact that I may have injested something slightly edible..."

The bald man looked puzzeled....

The suspect continued...


" yeah and sheeesh... I was like looking at the AFI sticker with the 666 kitty on it and was thinking how cute Davey use to be when I was younger and how much I wanted to go to the TOLO with him and that SWEEET guitar player of his and.."

The bald man proceeded to lose it on the suspect and started screaming for the suspect to get a life and "get some help" and the suspect retorted something to the effect that the bald man should pay his Republican taxes.

Upon inspection of the scene after the appearance of no altercation, I noticed the back rear end of the passenger side of the Mazda B2200 truck had a caved in rear fender quarter panel.

It was this reporters summary that the suspect was placing the Jack Ball near the scene of the cave in on the rear fender quarter panel in such a manner as to ward off evil spirits intent on further damage to the Mazda B2200 and to hide the fact that the Jack Ball appeared to have no hat.

Thank you! I needed the laughter - but now, where do I buy ALL of these? :)

How about a pill to wake everybody so they can see both parties aren't worth a sh*t and to demand that Ralph Nader, a true candidate, at least be allowed to debate?

I am a Jewish believer in Jesus. Here is a direct quote from David Brickner regarding his remarks at Sarah Palin's church: "The comments attributed to me were taken out of context. The notion that the terrorist, bulldozer attack in Jerusalem this summer was God’s judgment on Israel for not believing in Jesus, is absolutely not what I believe. In retrospect, I can see how my rhetoric might be misunderstood and I truly regret that. Of course I never expected the kind of magnifying glass scrutiny on a message where I was speaking extemporaneously. Let me be clear. I don’t believe that any one event whether a terrorist attack or a natural disaster is a specific fulfillment of or manifestation of a Biblical prediction of judgment. I don’t believe that the newspaper should be used to interpret the Bible. The Bible interprets the Bible. I love my Jewish people and the land of Israel. I stand with and support her against all efforts to harm her or her people in any way. Please feel free to read my further explanations on the front page of our website, both in my article and in the interviews I did with Christianity Today and NBC." The website is www.jewsforjesus.org

I've got The Fear these days too, on several fronts. But I agree with the person above who noted the best cure is not dope but action in getting our man off the rocks and into the White House. Volunteer for the campaign, send a few bucks, write a letter to magazines and newspapers. Organize. Do something.

I loved this! Hey - for those of you needing a little more point-and-click relief:

PBS (moderator of one of the presidential debates and the vice presidential debate) is running a poll which asks if Palin is qualified to be VP. The right wing has organized a "yes" campaign and at the moment, "yes" is winning.
http://www.pbs.org/now/polls/poll-435.html

Please consider voting "No" and sending along - it feels quite therapeutic to click No No No No No...

THANK YOU THANK YOU ELI SANDERS!! Thank you for putting that malaise of anxiety chasing me around for the past month into beautiful, succinct and hilarious words.

Do these meds work on Canadians? It gets pretty lonely up here for people like me with PESD. Can't wait for November 5th and an Obama win. Its pretty scary to see what's happening on the far right (they should call it the "far wrong")in the US. I feel like there's an idealogical civil war going on that may just escalate with those maniacs after an Obama win. God I hope the good, intelligent guys win.

Please wait...
