National Budget Simulation:
Let's you decide what to cut or increase and the effect it would have on the budget.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I wonder if thier new site is problematical - DH got my salt celler from them last year - and there were no problems.
ION, my cat is driving me crazy. all I want to do is sit and watch something on TIVO. the cat however, thinks I should be following him around, petting him when he says so and other wise be at his beck and call. but picking him up and moving him where I want to be means nasty cat attack. so I follow him around or he meows incessently.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
I increased the budget by $229.4 BILLION DOLLARS! I am powerful!!
Seriously - let freaking Charles Grodin in there - he'll fix the budget.

they said they would ship out the cellars the week of Dec. 12. They shipped mine out on Monday. They have ignored my requests for tracking numbers or even how it was shipped.

Oh, that's fun Gud! I managed to cut the deficit by billions just by lowering military spending and cutting corporate tax cuts. And I even managed to bump education, science, and health up a bit at the same time.
Y'all should totally vote for me.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Teppy, how is Big Boss! How's his arm?
He looks SO good. Bear in mind he's 74, and by all rights he should have died, you know? People half his age frequently die from flesh-eating bacteria infections. When he first got back to Cincy in May-June, he was thin as a bone, very jaundiced, and confined to bed.
He still tires easily, but he's walking with a cane, he's no longer jaundiced, he's regained most of the weight, and he's as energetic as it's possible to be, I suppose. He doesn't have a prosthetic arm yet, and in fact, I don't know if he's going to get one. I haven't heard.
Man. I could not be happier right now.

It was shipped by this guy named Lot. Don't go back to the site.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Yay for Teppy's Big!Boss!
OMG, these guys are taking forever. We're going on 4 hours now....

I'm glad to hear that your boss is doing well, Steph.
Hmmm. I just headed off a major scheduling problem at work. (A mixture of crossed signals, holiday leave, and coworkers juggling babies, full-time work, and law school.) And no one's particularly pissed off. And, aside from the heading off conversations, I didn't end up having to do extra work. I should totally be in management of some sort.

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
Man, walking with a cane has got to be a beeeeee-yotch when you only have one arm.
