Here in Dr. Curmudgeon's Virginia branch, we have broken out the Isle of Jura in honor the vice presidential debate. We will of course drink for the mention of "Halliburton" and "we have a plan","summit", and any mention of Kerry's Senate career from the VP.

I arrived late alas held up at a church function, but when I walked in all heck was breaking loose, with the VP delivering some lovely uppercuts. That line " you probably weren't there to vote for it" was priceless. The best part was that in response John Edwards made what can only be described as a moue. (He did the same when Cheney rattled off the figures and slammed him for not respecting Iraqi casualties.) I am enchanted; so few people moue today, and that a trial lawyer would moue is even more exciting. I have added Edward's moue to the drinking list.
