Now there's a chihuahua wearing a pink parka visiting.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Watching Fox News hurts my brain. Apparently Obama's health care plan will mean that patient care will no longer be decided by the patient's doctor, most doctors are OUTRAGED at the plan, Obama's staff can't use Google, all you have to do to treat uninsured patients is make them pay a doctor $79 a month for unlimited check-ups, and one woman owes her life to the current health care plan.
Which current health care plan. Socialized Medicine (the VA), Single-Payer (Medicare, Medicaid), Private Insurance, or go-to-the-ER-and-go-bankrupt?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Cindy, good luck to you.
ION, I am trying to decide if I should buy this sofa: [link] I think it's weird not to sit in it first, but it's so cheap!

I have a question. My FIL mentioned something about how a scientist that Al Gore quotes or uses or something, now is predicting a cooling cycle. I couldn't say anything about this since I didn't know anything about it.
A brief bit of research does indicate there is indeed some truth to this. From what I can determine this doesn't refute CO2 driven warming, it just means a cooling cycle will mute the effect for a period of time. Does anyone know much about this? It made me curious, but looking up objective info on global warming is difficult.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I can't see any of the puppy pics, am sad.
After a couple of months of no house cleaner, she is back as of today - WHOOT! No bugs or evidence seen in a month, so I felt safe enough to have her come in.
Weekend - the plan was to apple and pumpkin pick tomorrow, but the forecast is rain, so it may jsut be hanging at a friends' house out of the city. Sunday mac and I may go see WTWTA and have Ethiopian food.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Our big Halloween party is tomorrow night. This year's theme is "Circus".
Here's the drink menu:
Acrobat Apple Cider (cider and Cap'n Morgans)
Sideshow Lemonade (pink lemonade and citrus vodka)
Clown's Blood (fruit punch and malibu rum)
Food will be circus fare: popcorn, carmel and candy apples, cotton candy, circus peanuts, and hot dogs (mini wieners in the crockpot with bbq sauce).

Magic 8 ball says 'It is Certain', I'm not sure what that means.
Huh, that doesn't strike me as especially cheap though I suspect that means that I'm cheap.
Of course my furniture place is this:

IIRC, the science behind this is that we are currently in a period of very low sunspot activity, which has historically meant a period of climactic cooling for the planet. (Since low sunspots = less heat coming at us from the sun.)
