"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I read that Bush is going on a 5 week vacation, his 49th vacation as president. Nice work if you can get it.

I know he's on his way here right now. Here as in N. Texas, not to my house. That would be strange.

They mentioned in the Globe that when this one's over, he'll almost have beaten Reagan (the most recent record holder) for vacation time taken during a presidency, with 2.5 years left to go.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I got all caught up in the shuttle repair.

I didn't watch any of the footage - did they just pull the stuff out? Or did they have to saw it off?

So no helmet banging into the belly tiles, huh?

Nope, he just pulled them out easily. They're smaller than I thought they would be.

He's got the record in the bag.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'd actually be OK with him saying he was working from Texas at a time like now when Congress is out for the month, but just to be on vacation? Must be nice.

Can he telecommute?

Or maybe I should ask, has he ever been near a computer?

Now that we've discussed people praying for you, how do we feel about someone saying "have a blessed day"?

Or is that a DC thing (cause I never heard it before I was here)

Well, you know, he's brought various world leaders and such down there to TX, and I'm sure Condi's not on vacation, so you'd think he could get some stuff done.

What is even happening?

I've never heard that one. I don't think it would bother me any more than Have a nice day. Hokey bothers me, but nice intentions don't. Then again, it doesn't bother me when (at other places) people sign their posts to me with "Blessed be," either.
