The streaming blur of the remaining tenths of a second conveys a certain impatience…

  1. let’s hope he will let the elections happen, though i have my doubts, based on all the weird directives they issued about taking control in case of an emergency, of any kind, enough to make the prez into the dictator…

  2. hmmm, does this little device take impeachment into account?

  3. You’ve met with Romney and Obama. Which face would you want on the next clock?

  4. Eh, yes please. Make it stop.

  5. That is so depressing I think I’ll go curl back up into the fetal position and rock back and forth… again. Counting down… so long… can’t… take… it.

  6. OK, that is a depressingly large number still. But like the folks over at Freakonmics said, maybe this doesn’t matter as much.

  7. Ha! cool I want one !

  8. Saw a license plate recently that said "Jan. 20, 2008: the end of an error"

  9. that big 5-2-3 up top also conveys a rather certain impatience…

  10. Except it (the license plate) should have said 2009!

  11. bryankennedy: very interesting link. thanks.

    It reminds me of an analysis I did of the data in a CBO book for total government spending (federal + state + local). Going back as far as they track the data, and with few exceptions, government spending goes up when we have Republican Presidents and it goes down when we have Democratic Presidents. (A simple time-lag argument does not explain the data, as the pattern holds strongly over the 12+ year stretches of Republican and Democratic Presidents)

    Causality cynics should vote for the opposite of the party rhetoric… 😉

  13. did you photoshop out the banana?…

  14. Hi, I’m an admin for a group called Number, and we’d love to have your photo added to the group.

  15. Awesome! Love it – I know the Daily Show had a running count of how many days were left for Bush. I wish I knew the current count offhand!

  16. thornless: ask and ye shall receive

  17. 500 days to go………………

  18. Awesome! Only 494 days left… hopefully that’s not too short a time for an impeachment!
