...take this to an extreme and counter feelings of extreme ennui with extreme activity-i.e. violence; repress your IKEA-fueled angst long enough and it'll explode in your face like a computer at midnight on New Year's Day 2000.

...planned to use the profits from the lottery to bulk up the state's school budget. The voters? rejection of the referendum paints Alabama?s much-maligned education system into a tight corner: They?ve got dwindling funds and almost no hope of an infusion - Siegelman?s other key campaign promise was not to raise taxes...
