Sarah Palin, while on the Glenn Beck show, said:

CO-HOST: How would you handle a situation like the one that just developed in North Korea?
PALIN: But obviously, we've got to stand with our North Korean allies. We're bound to by treaty--
CO-HOST: South Korean.
PALIN: Eh, Yeah.

During the presidential election season, she didn't know that North Korea and South were two different countries, so this is actually an improvement! Give her another two years and she'll be confident about which one is our ally.

Clip is one minute long, and it starts by saying she'd have the Republican nomination. How amazingly scary is that?

In WoW news, I did the loooooon quest chain to get the firefly flamefly pet. I had read that it was 48 quests long, but I think that was way off. Maybe 25? And they were mostly sort of amusing, so I didn't mind too much doing them all. Tomorrow I'll probably get one of the last two pets, then the final one over the weekend.

The websites I read were wrong and Org fishing dailies are in the game now! Eeek, I missed two days of doing them! (A slacker am I!)

Also RPed for the first time in way too long. RL has been stressing me out so much that I hadn't been wanting to, but I really need to not go that long again! I like RPing! Doooo it, me!

I really, really like the fox hunter pet. Mini-Keen has a red one named Acorn. While I love seagulls (his is named Livingston; it's not IC, but it's not an IC pet), I think I might like the fox more. Acorn might be my main non-IC pet. I was iffy on the name at first, but it quickly grew on me and now it's my favorite of all my pets.

North Korea = crazy dictator with bad hairdo and starving people
South Korea = cute boy bands, most of the electronics in my house, Louis Vuitton obsession, tiny dogs carried around in handbags, etc etc.

It really is not that hard.

I am not a fan of Obama, but no way in heck is Palin ever getting my vote.

Ha! She should have that written on an index card! North on one side, South on the other, with all the things on your list. That'd totally work!

Singing flower: Zombies vs plants

Flamefly: Long quest chain I told you about.

Withers: (tree druid, shrinks over time, take him to water to return to full size: A vendor in Darkshore. Here (http://www.wowhead.com/npc=33980) -- I found him in the cave location.

Mr. Grubbs: You need a buff from this quest (http://www.wowhead.com/quest=27555) to have a chance of him dropping.

I have just Grubb left! Going to do it tomorrow.

I am convinced that Sarah Palin is just like Kelly Bundy: Whenever something goes in her head, something else must come out. I can already imagine the following scenario:

Aide: Madame President, is it true that we just bombed North Carolina?
Palin: Well, we've got to stand by our southern allies. (In a low voice.) They are our friends, right?
Aide: Um...in a manner of speaking. South Carolina is part of the union. But—
Palin: Oh, good! For a moment there I thought I just made a terrible mistake.


This will be followed (somehow) by a nuclear Armageddon...one that we probably deserve.

*dies* Reminds me of a joke a British person told, about worrying that Palin would not just mess up if NK or SK was our ally, but mixing NK and UK, to be followed by her ordering London to be bombed!

Palin for 2012: Mama Grizzly Needs to Bomb Somebody, Badly!

She will probably win by a landslide. :x

We gotta put the fear of god into those unamerican terrorists somehow!

Look out, North Canada, here we come! We'll protect our South Canada allies to our dying days!

One more...

Palin: So you are saying despite the "North" and "South" in their names, North and South Carolinas are not enemies?
Aide: They are not enemies.
Palin: And that they are part of my constipa—What was the word you used?
Aide: They are part of your constituency, correct.
Palin: So why can't we just reach out to our North Kore—
Aide: (Coughs.) Carolinians.
Palin: So why can't we just reach out to our North Corellian friends and apologize?
Aide: I am afraid it doesn't work that way, Madame President.
Palin: Why not? Aren't they our friends?
Aide: Not anymore.


(I randomly threw in a Star Wars joke in there...)

Ah yes! I am not a gamer, so I didn't think of it.
