Hmm.

Giving up your seat for a pregnant woman? Ethical. Eating a french fry in a Metro station? Unethical. Holding a Metro train's doors open until they break, thus forcing everyone to be offloaded? Stone him!

I'm not sure the second is unethical. Against the rules, yes. There's a difference.

For the last two mornings, I've had people waiting at the bus stop with me who were aggravating in their impatience. Listen up, people: walking to the middle of the road to huff and stomp your feet does not make the bus arrive more quickly, but having a pointless temper tantrum in my presence before I've had coffee may shorten your lifespan. I am just saying, I suffer from morning-induced sociopathy.

Hey bon, are you and bob bob up for dinner next week some time?

Robeks = yum if you like that sort of thing.

I like the calorie counts and they totally do influence me.

There was a thing on the news ... last night? sometime recently ... about the online application for a job with the new administration. It's multiple pages, some 63 questions, and they go into a lot of detail. Now ... there have been complaints about it infringing on applicants' privacy but it occurs to me that it's probably a good way to avoid embarrassing information coming out later. And the plum book's out, if anyone's interested.

It is! I have an application partially filled out! I don't know why, given that my daughter is sick and I can't really up and leave her. But, yes.

I'm not sure I'd qualify as a low level secretary anymore either. And i'd probably be too expensive on the Government pay scale for that work. But I have West Wing day dreams.

I'd heard about the ones in London -- I didn't know there'd be any in the US!

Come in and Worship "God"

Still not better than the church marquee I saw just before Halloween: "Jesus is the best treat!"

But I have West Wing day dreams.

I want to apply for the role of Margaret.

For the last two mornings, I've had people waiting at the bus stop with me who were aggravating in their impatience. Listen up, people: walking to the middle of the road to huff and stomp your feet does not make the bus arrive more quickly...

That made me curious about how inconvenient a bus trip from home to work would be, however the transit authority's website told me it couldn't figure out any possible routes. Kansas City and public transportation just don't mix.

I think it's the "eat six times a day" people, who are also responsible for the 300 calorie Lean Cuisine "meals." If I'm eating three meals of 300 cal each, that would be a really extreme diet! I'm not a snacker, I have like 150 cal. for breakfast, and I'm not even trying to lose weight.

That's me you're talking about. But not the Lean Cuisine psuedomeals (from now on they should be called shmeals). My snack tend to be a a hard boiled egg with mustard and bacon salt. Or a packet of string cheese.

And, I've lost 5 lbs this week. With another 15 to go. though I would settle for 10.

Man Submits Drawing in Lieu of Payment, Film At 11.

I have a scam question. Has anyone seen this one before? How does it work?
