Ah well, Saxby Chambliss won, and it was no real surprise.

I hate these drawn out election cycles–I say get the body in the ground and quickly, because the corpse is starting to stink.

This reminds me of when my father died at home with all his children present at his request last August on a Friday right on Labor Day weekend. It was Sunday before my mother had the funeral because my father had wanted a BIG funeral with his entire rather-large church there and it took a long time to get that organized. After that service, there was a huge receiving line, (which wore poor old Clifford out as he had only met my dad once and he’s normally confused all the time anyway). Then after the receiving line, my dad wanted a potluck supper, so that took a long time. Then they waited until Tuesday to have the graveside service (because the cemetery workers had that Monday off). Then they had a dedication ceremony at a park a week later. For all I know they are still having ceremonies, not to belittle the wishes of my father whom my family of course misses very much, but come on!
