Jervis: Sometime when we’re visiting and Baltus is there (since he’s got an account you can use to try it with) we’ll get you up and running with EVE.

Feline: Yeah, I mean, I get that it isn’t exciting to work in a Rite Aid. But wow, when people’s health rests in your hands, you need to at least have some system for making sure you’re giving them what you’re supposed to!

Here in Maryland I think the ‘people not parties’ thing has been particularly important to us. There have been candidates who, frankly, came across like they were totally nuts, yet if we’d been voting along a party’s lines we would have voted for them. I’m not willing to do that. I’d like the lesser of two weevils… I mean evils… thanks.

Oh dear! I am so glad you caught the pharmacist’s error and knew what to do. Like you suggested, it would have been horrible if someone tried to take all three pills at once.

I too vote for people not parties. I’ve never quite understood voting down a party line when I don’t agree with a candidate’s platform . . .

If I knew how to get on Eve, I might give it a try. I’m NOT going to Pirates for all the reasons you mention…and because I know I’d be addicted. The first step towards recovery is admitting you have a problem…

Melissa: Political parties just seem to mess everything up, you know? Everyone’s so busy trying to toe some party line that they don’t think for themselves, and they aren’t willing to rock the boat in order to do what’s right. I register independent, because I’ve seen candidates on both sides I haven’t been willing to vote for.

I need that bumper sticker. A lot.
