Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
sumi, the closest I can find is:
On some occasions a call for abstentions may be proper, but this is not commonly invoked. But Chairs should be prepared for one or more members wishing to have their abstention recorded in the meeting’s minutes.
There is also an interpretation (in the legal sense) of Robert's that states:
Silence during the formal vote should be interpreted as abstention.
Thank you!
I knew I was right.
Are these the same ones that celebrate Thanksgiving by seeing who can get Grandma to go sit in the car for two hours?
No, that's my Dad's side of the family.
Okay, Anne. I missed the grandma-in-the car story. Share, please.
I'm glad your family isn't without power. It is terribly cold. On the Boston news this morning, they said about 4000 people are still without power--I think that was South Shore or Cape-wards.
Today's an official snow day here, but I told the kids not to count on going to school last night, because the roads are treacherous, anyhow. We live within walking distance, but there was so much snow, most of the sidewalks aren't shoveled, and it just wasn't worth it, and too dangerous.
Cat tetris stacking is the crack. How many levels are there. I can't get past level 10. My kids are now reminding me to blink, occasionally.
Julian McMahon is going to be on Charmed's 150th episode.
How wrong is it that Charmed gets a 150th episode?
How wrong is it that Charmed gets a 150th episode?
How wrong is it that they get Oded Fehr?
Infinitely.
No, that's my Dad's side of the family.
Ah, right. I have to say, I giggle immensely every time that story comes up on BRQG.
Timelies!
Good news: I got a snow day today!
Bad news: Once again Salem was the biggest snow magnet in the storm with a grand total of 38". If I don't get my car at least dug out at some point today, I fear it's going to be there until a thaw hits. I don't need to take it out on the road, but I'd prefer it not become a piece of art for the rest of the winter, especially with my move coming up over the next few weeks.
Still, snow day and the Pats are going to the super bowl again! Whee!
Wow, the insane weather just keeps coming! Snow-ma to those in the way.
It's just raining here, but of course I'm parked about a kilometer from the embassy and left the walking shoes in the car. I will be soaked. In my defense, I was distracted by finally realizing why so many Greeks have been gesturing at me at pointing at the front of my car: they've been trying to tell me my lights are on! Finally a guy pulled up beside me today and yelled "Your lights are on!" I don't know how to explain DRLs in Greek, so I just said, "OK, thanks."
A first! Government offices are closed until at least noon! Unfortunately, I am working from home. Feh!
Now they're closed all day. (Though it doesn't look too bad out.)
Megan, stop working!!! Go out and make a fort.
