I really want to re-fi into a 15 year fixed while the rates are dropping.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
I stayed at the Waldorf-Astoria several years ago. My mom, sister, and sister's friend were in NYC for the weekend after Xmas, and sis and her friend had half-off coupons from the hotel chain [Hyatt? Hilton? one of the two] that owns the W-A, so instead of paying $400/night, we only paid $200. Nice rooms, but like a fancy restaurant, nothing comes free, not even the coffee (Mom was pissed to find a $5 charge on the bill for the coffee she made in the room that morning). The location cannot be beat, though--it was a perfect base for wandering Manhattan.

ABC News' Political Radar blog quotes an unnamed "senior Obama campaign official" as saying that "the debate is on" and the Democratic nominee "intends to debate."
And Fox News interviewed Gloria Kellum, the vice chancellor for university relations at the University of Mississippi, which is hosting Friday's debate. Kellum told the network's Shepard Smith, "The Commission on Presidential Debates is moving forward, and so they're saying to the candidates, 'This was our agreement, this is what we're gonna do.'" The CPD is in charge of arranging the debates.

A friend emailed me that when one of her colleagues heard about McCain's call to stop everything and concentrate on the bailout he said - (paraphrasing) - if he's president is he going to be able to stop everything else to work on one thing at a time?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
And um, it's not like there isn't any crazy shit going on right now related to foreign policy either - North Korea making noise again this morning, just for example.

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
Senator, the financial collapse is not a snowday. You still have to do the debate so get cracking on your homework.

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

Really. It reminds me of being in speech class, when kids would desperately try to come up with some excuse for why they weren't ready on the day they were scheduled to give a speech.
It's as if instead of preparing for the debate, McCain was in his dorm doing bong hits....

Now tagless for your comfort.
I just put a chicken in the oven to roast. Mixed up some Thai chilli paste, lime juice, garlic and ginger then basted the buttered chicken carcass.
It smells really good.
