Bush bad, Feingold smash!

Saw this on Katie's blog, passing it on. Not much to say about this, just looking forward to quantum cryptography, when it might be possible to communicate and know that it's physically impossible to intercept the message.

apparently the only other president to be censured was Andrew Jackson (who I think I am distantly related to, or is that Andrew Johnson?). And they censured him for not handing over a paper! man, their political debates were so boring back then.

"I implore of you good sir to make haste in the transferrence of said documents to my possesion"
"I must most respectably decline to present these documents. Now I must bid you good day sir"
"Well sir, you have besmirched my honor for the last time[pulls glove from pocket and proceeds to smacketh jackson upsideth the face]. I challenge you to a duel... or perhaps I shall censure you in these great chambers of congress."
"I said GOOOOOD DAY!!!![stomps out of room]"
"Well then censure it shall be."

Or something like that.

If it's Andrew Jackson, then we are relatives, but then again, if you're a living thing, then we're relatives.

On a quasi-related note, I'm related to Zachary Taylor, 12th pres of the US and the 2nd most forgotten one.

You know how I can't eat sour cream, mayo, and whatnot b/c of a weird food allergy? Turns out the same food allergy is what killed him. For awhile they thought he was poisoned, so they dug him up (sent my grandma a letter informing her of this, we aren't close enough to give permission), and turns out family lure of him "eating ice cream on a hot day" was probably right.

Thank god for Louis Pasteur, or I'd probably be sharing the dead/ex-president's fate. Yay for weird familial relationships?
