The Mayor ,'End of Days'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My mother is apparently on a bender. She's been gone for two weeks and didn't tell Dad where she was going. She's at a casino in Iowa, running low on insulin and about to have her Discover card cut off.
Feh. I don't know why he doesn't pack her bags and have them waiting for her on the porch when she gets back.
And I complain about my mother sometimes... ugh.
Oh man, Cashmere. Good luck to them. Not that kind of luck.
Ack, Cashmere. Good luck to them indeed.
I'm just as frustrated with Dad. He martyrs himself and complains and is miserable when he could be proactive and just toss her out. He pays all the bills anyway. She doesn't contribute. His theory is that she takes such poor care of herself that she's going to die soon, anyway. Waiting her out is no way to live. He and my brother can live ok on his retirement and bro's SSDI without the stress of Mom hiding her credit card bills from him.
I know it hurts his pride to accept money from me but he is really just suffering and won't make a move to end the situation.
Oh my....

This is just freaky - I sorta' want to see it before I believe it: Swimsuit that Dries Itself
Sun Dry Swim has produced a swimsuit made of nanomaterials that repel water, so it never gets wet. Water will just roll off of it, and it will be instantly dry, because technically it never got wet in the first place.
Company site: [link] Bah - can't cut and paste from there, but it says "water moves through the fabric rather than penetrating the fibers" and that when removed from water, the water just beads off.
