I agree with the regulations. And I have a particular thought about the consequences. I think the actual bailing out should consist of taking over the institutions that need bailing out. No buying of assets no accepting of warrants that leave a stake for existing stockholders. You are profitable or able to pay your debts or can work out a deal with your creditors, more power to you. You can't, congratulations, you are now government owned. Not the only thing that needs to be done, but should be part of the bailout.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

The last thing that made me smile was Dylan saying "Byebye!" to me this morning when I left for work. He's starting to "get" non-noun parts of speech and it is so fucking cool!!!! (Like, this morning when I picked him up to give him a hug but he wanted to be running around with his musical toothbrush and he said "DOWN!" Awesome!)

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?
Dude, I woke up and got my ass to work by 7:50 for an 8:00 meeting that yesterday afternoon got changed to 8:30 and I didn't notice. Well, poop.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Pretty much ready to go. Apartment still a mess. Oh well.
Cats are going nuts. Managed to turn off the modem once already, bouncing around like lunatics.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Have a great trip!
