Here are the results of the Espoo jury

The day of the profile photo dawns. The Grand Jury of bits of Bruce convenes. The vote is conducted according to the strictest democratic principles.

First off, the jury disqualified people who voted more than once, because she obviously doesn't know one from the other and tried to vote for three things anyway.

For a moment, the jury thought it would follow the American model and just select bush. But then we read the indecency laws and decided not to risk it.

Next, the jury discounted anyone whose candidate was not on the ballot paper and whose vote was just, like, well, ... wrong.

Finally, the jury decided that nmj is obviously a woman of taste, so we'll do what she says.

The declaration of the returning officer, therefore, is that once again democracy gives you ... the finger.

Any appeals should be lodged with the Supreme Court of bits of Bruce. But as the judges are all brothers of the finger, don't hold your breath.

Look, what's wrong with changing your stance once you've been given a clear view of the facts? It is, I will not hesitate to remind you, your kind of thinking that kept Kerry from getting elected.

Senators Finger, Finger, and Finger raised the issue of people pulling their ballot papers out of the ballot boxes after casting their votes. Judge Finger, presiding, laughed loudly and continued with lunch. The senators Finger then voted against a recount, reasoning that if fingers can't count, then nobody can.
