Greg,

Alan Arkin, as Yossarian, was on the boob tube last night. TMC decided that Catch-22 was a good movie to show. Frankly, between Lewis Carroll, Franz Kafka and Joe Heller, I think this episode in electoral politics has been well covered. Although it is in a class of its own... :)

Thatza some catch, that catch 168. Yessir. If I agree with you I'm crazy and shouldn't be able to comment. If I comment I'm crazy and shouldn't be sane. If I'm sane I shouldn't be crazy, but if I comment I'm crazy. So am I sane. No? I'm commenting so I must be crazy. Yes? Thatza some kinda crazy catch, that catch 168. KLP agrees, and he's crazy.

I'm listening to Barry Richard in Judge Carter's court. He's arguing that "void and illegal" as it relates to the integrity of the absentee ballot are not distinguishable. He's gonna regret that when 15,000 voided ballots drop on his head. Because they are not illegal, they are merely void, they are sane, aren't they, in Leon County to find that avoidance of illegality by voiding ballots is a better catch? Or is it a better catch that the ballot has no integrity because it is not inlegal, or was it merely grating. Or was it disintegrated? What's the catch? The catch is that we live in a Wonderland.....

Best, Ray
