"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Obama's said repeatedly that he'd probably have some Republicans in his cabinet. Hagel & Lugar are likely candidates.

I actually don't think it's a bad idea. I don't think all republicans are wrongheaded crackpots with idiot opinions and I think some have important ideas and experience to offer with some policies.

Colin Powell, for example, would be great in the cabinet.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

When I was on vacation with friends the other week, when we were buying booze, one make the excellent suggestion that we should get some bubbly, because she did not have enough circumstances in her life where she (and her husband) would finish a full bottle, and otherwise, it's wasted. Which I thought was an excellent, excellent point.

My friend Robyn orders Champagne as her go to drink whenever we go out for dinner. Her point is that champagne should be consumed more and not merely for special occasions.

I t heart champagne.

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

About fucking time:

Joe The Plumber Vs. CNN's Rick Sanchez: "You're Asking Me Insane Questions"

Joe the Plumber, in his last media tour of (one can hope) this election cycle, took to CNN this afternoon to make the case for his candidate John McCain. Only things didn't exactly go as planned. Host Rick Sanchez began asking a whole host of questions on sensitive topics like: Why don't you have a plumber's license? Why haven't you paid your taxes? Why is a hospital in South Carolina asking you for $1,100 in payments? And why does someone making far less than $250,000 have a problem with taxes being raised on those in the top income brackets?

Joe, not surprisingly, was none too pleased with having the grilling turned on him. "You're asking me all these insane questions," he said, shooting back that Sanchez never applied the same scrutiny to Barack Obama. Joe called Sanchez's inquiries "ridiculous" and at one point pleaded, "Why don't you ask what I'm going to do now?"

And here is the transcript of the heated/humorous exchange.

Joe: Why are you vetting me out and you haven't done this for Obama? You are asking me all these insane questions I asked a question of an elected public official and you are going to ask me these questions? That's kind of ridiculous man.

Rick Sanchez: You have gone on the air and endorsed John McCain, you are no longer just joe private person, you have thrust yourself into this campaign by holding news conferences talking to reporters and endorsing a candidate. You have to be asked the tough questions my friend. That's the way it works in this country

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

Man, Sanchez has been on a roll lately. It's like he decided one day to wake up and be a real journalist.

I'm sure she'll sleep better at night knowing that the French agree with her on this point.

ETA: I just realized my tag is woefully passé. Hmmmm, must think.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Hmmmm, must think.

I respectfully suggest "Shut your mouth and get down on the floor".

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I actually don't think it's a bad idea. I don't think all republicans are wrongheaded crackpots with idiot opinions and I think some have important ideas and experience to offer with some policies.

I am Kat.
