I can sing every word from Sisters.
Still one of my most favorite moments with you.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
DJ I'm sorry to hear that you've had such a shitty end of the year. I hope everything turns around soon.
And Sean, ugh, so sorry.

(((DJ))) I hope things start getting better for you very soon.
Sean, is there any update on S? You've both been in my thoughts.
I have spent the day shopping, baking, and wrapping. Some year I'll get this stuff done early.

Hey y'all. I haven't posted in a bit, but I can haz K-Bug!!! So nice to have my girl home. She and CJ are decorating a gingerbread house right now. The silly kids started the project at 10pm for some reason. Man, I missed hearing them give each other a hard time.
Oh, and CJ is still a touch shorted than K-Bug, but not by much. He had so hoped to have passed her.

Give the bug a hug for me, Suzi! Glad to hear she made it home, with all the crazy weather we've been having.

We were supposed to get a bunch of snow today, but got nada. And now the forecast is no snow for the rest of the week.

The status is NOT quo.
Still one of my most favorite moments with you.
Mine too!!!
Suzi, hugs to K-Bug.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, Shir. Truce~ma to everyone on both sides, all the PTB and all the regular people just trying to get on with their lives and everyone in between, all stuck in a mess of grievances of their parents' and grandparents' making. Lots and lots of taking-a-deep-breath~ma all around.
(With, because I selfishly worry more about the people I know and the people they worry about, an extra round of ~ma and virtual bubble wrap to your sister.)

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Wow, Typo Boy, I somehow missed your reply.
Let me begin by saying that Israel may act like a regional superpower, but that's not how it feels like. The country is weak and fragmented. Acting up like a bully may be just a symptom, but the feeling is that if any war on any front would open now, combined with the fragmentation within might bring Israel back to, let's say, 56' era. Terrorists pose more than a criminal threat to Israel: they pose a threat to the country's strength. Israel really grew weak within the last 4 years, esp. after the Second Lebanon War. So it may has the power NOW, but the feeling is that if the situation will deteriorate just a little bit more, it'll lose a lot more than it can afford.
As for the pressure of Egypt about the Gaza crossing: well, considering whether they like it or not they are a side on this, I can't see why they shouldn't be involved. Gaza has always been the hot potato which nobody wanted to deal with. I think they are a factor as well, and just managed to avoid it for a long time.
As for the killing: yes, I agree: in the end, not a lot of things can justify it. But we're kindda stuck on the moment without any real progress. Any faith in Hamas, Fatah or our very own government was lost, so the country's not in a situation where it can do a lot but keeping the devil it knows.
Not that that's excuse. And I know it's stupid, and causing so much pain and suffering. But that's how things are, from my angle.
