Some backstory - a while ago, Marcelo thought it would be funny for us to try to convince Arcecat that he was dating Jenna Fischer (who was married at the time). So I just found this IM between Arcecat and myself on the topic, and it made me chuckle.

Just got this PM from our dear friend Arcecat (non-dancers, feel free to ignore)

I know you weren't at DLX but you do seem to know people who were there....I"m just so confused....you know how they were having a wedding for Wombat and Snoopykiss....I thought that was a mock gay wedding but then they went all out for it..so I'm just so confused...if they aren't gay then really it was rather rude to do that cause that would seem to make a mockery of gay weddings then at the same time if they are gay and this was a real gay wedding then I should congratulate them...but I think they are straight ..but I'm just so confused....

Mugsy: Why do you mention computers?
Arcecat: cause I know there are aim names out there that are computers
Mugsy: Can you elaborate on that?
Arcecat: well I know that when I was babysitting this one kid that he could im a computer and it was pretty smart
Mugsy: Why do you tell me you were babysitting this one kid?
Arcecat: because you asked me to elaborate
Mugsy: Do any other reasons not come to mind?
Arcecat: no reasons come to mind nor do they not come to mind
Arcecat: sorry you are confusing me
Mugsy: Apologies are not necessary.
Arcecat: ok
Mugsy: Please go on.
Arcecat: well i could go on and on but I don't know what I would be talking about
Mugsy: Why do you not know what you would be talking about?

Mugsy: what about them?
Arcecat: what are mallowmars?
Mugsy: they're these orange marshmallows they sell at halloween
Mugsy: they have a weird black filling...I think they're disgusting, but some people love them
Mugsy: kind of like a liquidy Peep
Arcecat: oh my.....I've never ever heard of those

Arcecat: oh...so I should try one to improve my understanding of physics
Mugsy: pass the mint helps understanding of biology, actually
Arcecat: wow...there is so much I can learn then
Arcecat: ...what is pass the mint...is it code word?

Mugsy: everyone sits in a circle
Mugsy: and you take one of those starlight mints
Mugsy: and pass it around behind your hands
Mugsy: whoever it ends up with
Mugsy: has to take off an article of clothing
Arcecat: really? why not just play strip poker?
Mugsy: some people think poker is a sin
Mugsy: the gambling and all
Arcecat:  yeah...but taking your clothes off in front of everyone...well that's just ... giving everyone a better look, I guess
Mugsy: right. but it's only one sin at a time
Arcecat: oh yes I see
Mugsy: I guess some people don't like to multi-task their badness

This was posted on Yehoodi. And it explains to everyone why we have four more years of GWB.

I always vote on morals and values.
I also vote for someone who says they are
a strong Christian cause I believe then that they will
pray about the issues and seek God's help in making
a decisions.

That is why I voted the way I did.
It's not open for debate.
