I watched 5 minutes of Charlie Rose interviewing Warren Buffet and the Gates, and the thought popped into my head. With all that money, why don't they just buy/start a drug company and create their own drugs, and then they could give them away where they're needed and charge us Westerners an arm and a leg?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My mirror is taped tentatively in place with athletic tape.
It was what was on tap.
Okay, off to damned gym.

My passenger side mirror is totally shattered and needs replacing!
This happened to me. And the dealer said I'd need a whole new mirror unit (holder and everything) which would be $200, but they didn't have them in stock. Since it wasn't required in Mass., I just went without until I got rid of the car. This must happen all the time -- have you Web-searched for DIY solutions?

I hate hate hate flying road debris. Scares the hell out of me. As annoying as it is, I'm glad the damage wasn't worse, ita. 80. Yearg.
Yesterday must've been the day for cars tossing off parts. A honda lost its muffler in front of me on the way home. Luckily, I was far enough back (and slowing for a stoplight) that I could avoid it.
May your review be as comfortable as possible, msbelle.

I want to give Jacqueline her birthday present, but I haven't wrapped it yet.
On the other hand, it's not the kind of present that really benefits from wrapping. (It's prettier than wrapping paper, you know?)
I think present now, and cake later.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I swear to god. I didn't remember any of the paperwork I need to try to take care of any of the bullshit I have to deal with. I think I can do the student loan thing anyway, but ugh. Anyway, I figure if I can post here (and I apparently can), I can refinance my student loans on work time. BAH.

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

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