Why Didn't Anyone Tell Me Jesse Helms Died?

Don't be sorry about Jesse Helms but thanks, I am fully recovered from the gastrointestinal distress.
Newbie gardener.My pale skin means limited sun exposure so I have to be careful, my partner does most of the direct sun labor and I stick to the shady areas.
I love it though, I am so incredibly gratified when something I put in the earth flourishes.
Like the snapdragons my mom gave me to transplant! They were shocky at first but are now blooming gloriously!
Sorry to get gushy.
I'm putting in hostas, they like shade.Power drill!
Hmmm...I need to comnbine power tools with planting, it sounds amazing.
More transplants from my mom.Her partner is a plant geneticist (pea & lentil are her area of expertise) who loves all things horticulture so I benefit from her knowledge.
Their yard is AWESOME.
Just thought about the original intent of this post.I am glad that Jesse Helms no longer walks the face of this earth and was disappointed I missed out on four days of enjoying his not being here.
I don't like racist people and can't help but cheer when they finally croak. I'm terrible. I'm sorry.
If I hear one more fucking word about that racist cracker, I'm gonna murder someone.
Good fucking riddance. I'm sick of hearing every hour on the hour here about his funeral services and flags flying at half-staff.

Here in Charlotte, it's HUGE news, because Wingate University, which has the Jesse Helms Center for International Studies (seriously!) is nearby. His death was front-page news all weekend.
I'm kinda pissed I missed the hype.Can you tell I haven't had the TV on all weekend? And I don't get the paper? When can we get rif of Dole? She's just his bullshit replacement.
I love how Libby Dole's been non-existent for that past 5 1/2 years, yet now she's got her pancake-batter face plastered all over the tube.
Oh, right...she's up for re-election.
Vote the cunt out. She's done dick for this state.

*blink*Jesse Helms Center for International Studies?!!!

Jesse Helms
Trust me, Wingate University is no college of higher learning. I mean, if Jesse Helms is their most famous alum, that should tell you something.
Ick.Sorry you've had to have so much mourning for Jesse Helms crammed down your throat. Here at WSU I keep having to remind people of who he was.
I LOVE using the past tense when referring to that homophobic, racist, elitist ass hat.
Hey. In your original post you mentioned food poisoning? Was it ala tomatoes? Cause you could join a class action if that is so.
The afterlife is, in my opinion, different for everyone, depending upon the life one has lived and the reward or punishment one deserves. My best guess for ol' Jesse is he ends up in heaven... a heaven populated exclusively by joyful, gay Black Panthers.
My hope for the afterlife (if there is one) is that we all realize our mistakes and cry and feel guilty and then get forgiven (like at the end of Dogma when Alanis forgave Ben Affleck for being a bastard). And then we choose whether or not we want to get reincarnated.
I keep telling the guys and gals at Afterlife, Inc. that I just wanna stay, hang out, maybe neck with Anais Nin some more but, no, they keep on reincarnating me, man. This time I got horns, at least. ( the tail is a bit of a nuisance but handy as well... prehensile, don't you know, and the ladies love it... okay, I lied about the tail, but, still...)
hmmm......I wonder why my comment got deleted.Does the person who deleted it think people with AIDS don't go to heaven?
it would be sort of neat to be plastinated. although, i also used to think it would be really really cool to be mummified, like, the old school egyptian brain-out-through-the-nose-organs-in-jars sort of way. although now i think i prefer cremation. unless i die in suspicious circumstances, because what if they need to exhume me and re-examine the body? (although i think if i can avoid marrying a guy named peterson, i might be ok)wow, so much to think about. kind of glad i'll be dead when it comes time to make that decision.
Kitten Tracy--Pete Peterson asked for your number and I gave it to him! SHIT! I wasn't thinking. If he calls, tell him you're washing your hair.
