My company just posted their earnings report. Profits were a bit down year to year and they downgraded profit estimates for the next quarter. The stock is charging upwards. Boy the economy sucks, the stock would have been hammered in normal times.
If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Did no one else double take here?
Oh yeah, just a little bit. Mrs. Dr. bon Bob, Esq., needs a new task. I'm afraid the bar is it, though.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm guessing the Obama show will be a musical presentation of his policy points with Neil Patrick Harris playing the part of Biden since Joe sometimes has trouble staying on the script.
That would make me SO HAPPY.
Especially if NPH did magic tricks!

That would be the part of the show where the deficit comes up.

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

Somehow, I bet Obama's already got most of the votes that would be swayed by NPH singing and doing magic....
Relatedly, I just signed up for an Obama calling party! And it's so close to my house, I got confused for a minute and thought it was in my actual building! (My neighborhood is streets and avenues with numbers that are close to each other -- I'm at 34th and 35th, the party is on 34th and 36th.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
This makes me sad, because I love football so much.
this is me.
what makes me doubly sad it that I almost never get to watch football myself, despite my deep love. In my perfect world, Sundays would be spent rushing home after church to watch hours upon hours of football while eating lime chips and queso and sometimes having large orders or buffalo wings.
sigh.
ION - Note to everyone who works in an office: Keep your desk cleaned up fairly well.
We had a RIF of one yesterday and I started cleaning out the desk today. lord. TONS of office supplies. dusty dirty everywhere. food stuff, plastic cups and utencils, plastic bags, and menus. a million little notes on pieces of paper. it's a mess. reminds me of a line from CSI an few weeks ago when one noted something like "working here I never left the house without making my bed and taking out the trash" - someone at some point is going to see your desk when you are out or when you leave.
