All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

What's the problem with your CB sofa, Tom? Thanks for the Mitchell Gold rec, flea-- I have been looking at them too, but since I can't see the prices online, I'm wary about going to their LA store (which might be kind of a drive). Are they in line with CB? 1-2K?

The See Kai Runs were awful for Lillian. Too much room around the ankle (because she's a wee skinny munchkin) so they'd fall off.

Lillian has teeny-tiny feet (she's a 7 1/2 right now and narrow according to the store people), though, so Your Baby May Vary.

Coding and Sleeping

Leif's feet used to be kinda, well, square. We had a real problem finding shoes that fit well and just had to try on lots of shoes. Fortunately, his feet have grown into normal proportions since then. I think little kid feet can be really tricky to fit.

I looked at funky sofa but I need something within the next week or two, so something in stock rather than custom. (Ideal conditions for buying a sofa, I know.)

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

I tend to sit in one spot on the sofa, and that that spot now seems to be lower than the rest of the sofa.

Oh, that's frustrating, Tom. Do you remember the style you bought?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Funky Sofa has in-stock stuff, Bon. They're in LA, so the delivery is cheaper and faster.

Jon Swift reviews Bush's accomplishments: [link]

My favorites:

  • There are more than 10,000 cities in the United States and because of George Bush every single one of them, except for New Orleans, is still largely intact.
  • Because of easy credit during the Bush years, more people had the opportunity to buy the homes of their dreams and live in them for a few years before they had to give them back.
  • He was able to stave off defeat in Iraq and at the same time keep just enough troops in Afghanistan to prevent the Taliban from completely retaking the entire country.
  • For the last five years not a single undercover CIA agent has been outted.
