Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Jackson looked all frail and shocky as he was all but carried to the car. If he'd been convicted I think he'd have dropped dead.

Narrator -- you are probably right.

I wonder how mom-and-son would feel about being charged for attempted fraud.

I hope that kid isn't charged with anything. I keep feeling like all this case showed in respect to him was who committed the abuse, not if it happened.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

This is making me think of the confusing In Her Shoes trailer I saw before Mr & Mrs Smith. But Cameron Diaz was looking kinda curvy, so that was pleasant.

She was, but I'm not convinced that Toni Collette is supposed to be the sister who wears a size 14.. I have read In Her Shoes and that trailer confused me.

oh. premature clicking.

Also, I'm sort of glad at the timing of the announcement because it certainly fucks up Arnold's press conference about a special election.

Thrive to spite them

I checked with Mom and my Aunt does have durable power of attorney. I explained what that would mean and Mom sounded relieved.

Cash -- I know one of the facilities in the town lets someone stay for a few days, either when a care giver needs to be out of town or just as a try out. G'ma did that, but she thought she was in a hospital.

I *think* the woman who comes in, J (who is a god send and so sweet) takes G'ma to lunch at the same or a different facility.

There are times when she says "oh! Idon't need all this space! I shoudl be move into one of this places they seem nice!" And then later she's saying "I'd rather die than go into one of those places."

It makes it hard to figure out.

Now, Grandma E has told everyone, very frequently, that when she can't take care of herself, or it becomes too much of a burden, or her memory starts going she wants to go into Assisted Lving (there are more choices here than where G'ma lives). She has a list of places she prefers and those she doesn't want. She's doing this now, so if some point in the future when her memory isn't good and if she starts saying she doesn't want to everyone will know that she's just not in her right mind.

Thrive to spite them

On the Michael Jackson front, I didn't think he'd be found guilty on all counts, but I thought they'd at least find him guilty on giving alcohol to a minor.

I don't think that he'll change his behaviour though, and he should.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Huh.

Anyone who'd let their child sleep over at Unca Mikey's house, raise yo hand.
