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

Silence means security silence means approval
2:07 P.M. - (AP) -- A top casino executive is calling on the Mississippi Legislature to enact emergency legislation to keep the state's coast gaming industry alive.
Because, after all, if the mob ain't happy, ain't no one happy.
One of the casino barges is sitting above the beach. That is, it floated over the beach and is sitting about 50 feet inland. Another one is sitting on a main road.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Are there people stealing jewelry? I mean, that's the kind of thing the vendors had time to lock up, given that they do it pretty quickly every night. So far, I'm inclined to give the looters a break-- a lot of that merchandise is a total loss, and can't be sold for awhile.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For people who don't know how. To bake a potato.
I can make lasagna from scratch (including the noodles), but somehow baking a potato is still hit and miss for me.
I think I'm easily bored.

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

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I cannot understand the reasoning employed by *those who had the ability and opportunity* to leave, but didn't. But it's cold, calling anyone going through this utter nightmare--for whatever reason--a fool.
My heart breaks for everyone in the LA/MS/AL region who got hit so hard. There is a ton of property damage in addition to the loss of life. I feel horribly for the people who had to weather this storm because they couldn't evacuate.
But, honestly, for those who *could* evacuate and *didn't*? I don't get it and never will.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And drugs. The drug addicts are apparently having a field day.
