Even though we had a lot of names on the LILF award, it's shocking how many of you have a thing for Lois Kolkhorst! Krusee made the list because for some of you there is pleasure in what's called a 'grudge fuck.' Who am I to judge?

*Note to the men: Don't go getting all upppity--This doesn't mean you're adored by the ladies in the capitol; more than half your votes came from dudes.

That's the titled letter Cindy Sheehan wrote as she gives up on her protest. She said, in part:

"I have tried ever since he died to make his sacrifice meaningful," she wrote. "Casey died for a country which cares more about who will be the next American Idol than how many people will be killed in the next few months while Democrats and Republicans play politics with human lives.

"It is so painful to me to know that I bought into this system for so many years, and Casey paid the price for that allegiance. I failed my boy and that hurts the most."

We can tell you every drunken, high move that Lindsay Lohan makes but how many people can read and comprehend and even act bothered enough to care about foreign policy? Much less, take the time to actually vote.

This is the way he ballz. Former state representative and current assistant House Parliamentarian Ron Wilson. He's the guy behind the desk in the video.

It's that time again, as we've done before we'll stand here on the porch and wave goodbye to the legislators as they pack up and head out to the hinterlands from whence they came. We will be dining out on stories about the end of the session for a couple of more weeks, I'm sure. Thanks for that because the rest of the session was a real snoozer.

And, it pains me to say this, but Representative Talton did a lot to redeem himself this year. I'll be compiling my list of best and worst...and not just about fashion. Recap away. I'll be back later.

Won't you be so glad to hear those words? We will. That's for dern sure. I did my sine die partying last night and have been suffering through a raging hangover all day. But, that doesn't mean if you're going out later you shouldn't call me.

And, oh yeah...we're still collecting nominees for the Best and Worst Dressed and LILF awards.

AND--We have one more reader submitted Craddick Photoshop. If you're up to a challenge, send them in and we'll enjoy!

A huge chunk of the House staged a walkout about an hour ago in protest of Tom Craddick sucking so much. Apparently the group marched out to applause and cheers, then mingled outside on the third floor, not really sure what to do next. When the insurgents (stupid name) returned back into the chamber after adjournment to collect their personal belongings, the Statesman says that finger pointing and loud arguments ensued. Some bills died and some members were pissed, but it was an excellent way to end a turbulent past few days.

I'm sure that marks the end of the session for the House, as it's highly doubtful they'll even have a quorum tomorrow.

Sine die!

Don't think there won't be any more drama in the House today. I just turned in and even Rep. Mark Strama is making parliamentary inquries. Yipes! You are making a BIG mistake Speaker when you dis Rep. Strama because if you're mean to him there are a lot of people that are going to come down there and kick your ass.
