Some fantastic shockers for you all to comment upon:

  • 532,227 people voted in the SC Democratic primary, trouncing the 350,000 'heavy turnout' estimate.
  • Barack Obama won by 28 percentage points, and got more votes than McCain and Huckabee combined. South Carolina is in play in 2008. :shock:
  • Chalk Hill, the neighborhood where I canvassed, had turnout that exceeded the campaign's goal by 2000 votes and went 90% for Barack Obama.
  • This morning, when I first logged on, there were 8 people in the Lounge, and 48 viewing the Politics forum!

I don't know if the third or fourth makes me more proud!

no one was as shocked as I ...

Give yourself to the Dark Side. It is the only way you can save your friends. Yes, your thoughts betray you. Your feelings for them are strong. Especially for... sister. So, you have a twin sister. Your feelings have now betrayed her, too. Obi-Wan was wise to hide her from me. Now his failure is complete. If you will not turn to the Dark Side... then perhaps she will...

Oh my gosh, you are so right about the dogs!

I hadn't really noticed the dogs so much on previous trips, but Saturday morning I went out with a woman who refused to walk up to houses with big dogs, even if they were fenced in the back. I never even thought twice about it, I'd just say "Hi, puppy" in my sweetest voice and go about my business.

Tip: If you are trying to build rapport with a man, do not coo to his pit bull and tell him he is a sweet baby, or call said pit bull a puppy. :blush:

Maybe you misspelled the word. I just checked, and urbandictionary.com still has it defined.

Could it be photoshopped? I don't know. Looks like different photos to me. Your photo shows GW looking at his daughter's hand, so maybe she changed it to Hook 'em Horns, when he turned to look. :idontno:

I looked up simply finger signs on urbandictionary and it gave me a list "spocker" was the first one I came across but that isn't the live long and prosper sign quite. Also was "sign of the shocker" which I guess we think it is?

Hint: We are talking about real "shockers," not real "spockers."
