They held up reports that Democrats would conduct their first 100 hours without allowing Republican amendments.
One of the pieces of legistlation they plan on enacting in their first 100 hours includes minority party protections.
They're not allowing any Republican amendments in the first hundred hours so the Repubs can't scuttle any of the legislation with trick amendments.
I'm not so much with the caring about the Repubs' problems at this point. Talk to me in a hundred hours and I'll take a moment to consider giving some thought to caring, depending on if they're actually getting screwed over, or if their just trying to upset the apple cart.
In more alarming news, I think my tv is threatening me. It keeps blipping on me like it does when the antenna gets a good static discharge. This would be bad. Ugly Betty is new! New last of OC! New CSI! BAD, people, BAAAAAD.
Sorry to be late with the sympathy, Kalshane. That really does suck, but then we've known your employer is run by asshats, or worse, clueless asshats. Like the asshat that called my project lead at 3:05 PM last Friday -- we were closing at 3 for the holiday BTW -- and demanded that somebody be called in out of vacation to prepare something for him.
Not that he could have been reached, even if she'd wanted to try. I've told her to stop answering her phone when its time to put on her coat, but does she listen to me?
Shit, Hec is on a ROLL today. You made me laugh about 15 times, so thank you, m'dear Smay!
we were reporting exciting evenings?
mine was get through adjustment period of coming home, dinner, homework with mac, bathe mac, read bedtime stories, lay down until mac is asleep. Now I get to log on and do a couple hours of work.
Wait--so one of the twins will be named Clementine?
Me, I have nothing more exciting than kettlebell planned for the evening, but judging by how much I post about it, that must be very exciting indeed.
I just hope my lunch digests properly before class starts. I have half an hour.
Shit, Hec is on a ROLL today. You made me laugh about 15 times, so thank you, m'dear Smay!
You're welcome! How many did you COMM, he said expectantly?
So I have to get up 4 hours early so I can make the commute to corporate to arrive 3 hours ahead of my normal start time to do something I could do better from my normal desk, just so there's someone physically in the department tomorrow. WTF?
Yeah, that makes sense. Or the other thing...
I'm sad I missed all the Natter threads.
Also, I seem to be eating the world!
