...current recall process is particularly ridiculous. The ballot will have two questions. The first will be yea or nay on Gray Davis; the second will be a list of candidates--not including Davis--to replace him. Davis might lose the governorship with 49% of the vote and be replaced by Candidate X with 10%. There will be dozens, perhaps hundreds, of candidates.

I would complain to Mike about a tough moment with a TF, and he would flick his wrist in my direction telling me that “Hon-nay, you are going to be fine.” Down in the dining hall Toby and I developed an entire lingo that helped us scope the flawless athletes who sauntered the Mather dining hall in the dinner hours.
