Chores

Because I have nothing to work on today, I will be taking some time to catch up on the chores I've been putting off:

• John McCain's choice of a female running mate = brilliant strategy.
  
• Earworm du jour, courtesy of the commercial for the video game "Mercenaries 2" (this may become my theme song for non-paying clients, should I ever have any):
