I think its weather related too. I used to party real hard but I just can't keep pace and thus kind of lost the desire. But the folks north of me are real professionals. Bionic livers - the works!

Court Rules California Recall Must Go On
8 minutes ago Add Top Stories - AP to My Yahoo!


SAN FRANCISCO - A federal appeals court Tuesday reinstated California's Oct. 7 gubernatorial recall election, rejecting a three-judge panel's decision to put it off for months.



Unless the U.S. Supreme Court (news - web sites) steps in quickly, the decision means Election Day is two weeks away.

The 11-member panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals (news - web sites) unanimously overturned the Sept. 15 decision of a three-judge panel from the same circuit. The original panel postponed the election on whether to recall Gov. Gray Davis (news - web sites) because six counties would use outdated punch-card ballots that were the subject of the "hanging chads" battle in the 2000 presidential election in Florida.

The decision clears the way for a possible appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, which could be asked to revisit its Bush v. Gore decision in the 2000 election.

The American Civil Liberties Union (news - web sites), which brought the challenge, did not immediately say whether it would appeal.
