-t, I'm glad you're safe and with family. I'm sorry for the news about your grandmother and hope you can all be with her soon.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

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?
-t, I am so glad you and Henry and your critters are safe. And, I'm so sorry about your grandmother. Tight hugs and all kinds of ~ma to you.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
In good news form this horrible storm, I heard a story on NPR this morning about the elderly residents of the flooded out Gulfport Veteran's home, who all got bussed up to the DC Veteran's home ,which has apparently got room and is a beautiful place. Residents lined the sidewalk with flags to welcome them.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Yeah, I did that this morning (iTunes).

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
Oh, -t, I'm surprised you can even TYPE. I'm so sorry about your Grandmother. I'm so happy your parents came and just GOT you. I don't care if I sound like I'm four, but nothing is better than Mommy and Daddy just scooping you up (even if they can't actually make it all better).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
LONDON (Reuters) - Oil prices fell by $2 a barrel on Friday as Europe prepared to tap up to two million barrels a day of emergency reserves to help ease a fuel crisis threatening the United States.
Petrol tanks have run down in the world's biggest consumer after Hurricane Katrina tore at the heart of the U.S. energy sector in the Gulf of Mexico on Monday and shut in nearly two million barrels per day (bpd) of refining capacity.
As the crisis deepened, President George W. Bush asked the International Energy Agency (IEA) to release petrol reserves and urged Americans to conserve fuel.
Huh. Once again, we'll take aid from other countries if it's in the form of oil.
