3. What country-wide changes would you institute to make the Texas thingy position not as important and wide-reaching?
1. Thomas Jefferson, because it's all his fault. Well, him and Ben Franklin and John Adams, anyway
2. George W. Bush, the Greatest American President of the last decade.
3. Finish building the immigrant fence for them the way they want it... all the way around.

1. Maaaaayyyybeeeeee
2. I never did lists that way anyhow, so I have no idea.
3. Dig it up and put it in the Pacific Ocean.

3. Do you give a poop what Roger Ebert thinks about video games?
1. Politics.
2. World Peace.
3. No. Roger is being a snob and doesn't get the importance of interactivity as a form of immersion and catharsis, and thus fails to see that, though the dramatic tools and the overall shape are different, the intent is still the same.

1. Wonder if it's closer to 2 AM than 8 AM.
2. Work days.
3. Yes, but I don't do it often.

2) If you woke up after one day of work and felt exhausted to the point of nausea, would you stay home or go to work, knowing the bills need to be paid?
3) Have you ever looked in the mirror and saw a complete stranger staring back at you?
