I like that one Dana

"Wall Street financiers just recently plunged the entire country into a near-depression. They should build their offices elsewhere."

Like up their own asses.

::slow claps::

Scince money seems much more impt than religion in this country, that seems apropos

I am totally stealing that.

In much shallower news, I really wish I was caught up on all the TV I missed in Canada so I could use the "Read New" button again.

Oy. Now one of my friends is posting the "Let's build a gay bar next to the mosque. [insert evil laugh]."

I'm pretty sure there's at least one as close and I saw a strip club in those pictures, so...yeah.

So I went over to FB to post that Wall Street thingy (which, btw, my economist husband says is too nice...apparently the only reason we aren't in a depression is the stimulus, such as it was, and mass psychology) and the top item in my feed was one of my minions saying that he'd just been defriended by a right-winger.

About the Ground Zero Mosque pix.

I was going to clean all the things today. or at least a lot. I think I have to make do with some.

there is just too much interesting stuff on the internet. DH sent me a link from the new york times that talks more about how I would like to live

not the extreme end of it, but less stuff.

Congrats to Gris!

Wow. You people have some weird FB friends.

I mainly avoid Facebook in favour of twitter these days - I can't cope with a forum composed almost exclusively of RL friends. Despite them all being guitar-playing long-skirt-wearing left-wing softies, it's still not a good place for me, my opinions or my developed-over-fifteen-years experience of what a troll is.

Now, it's actually called "Reconciliation", not "Confession", and it's built in to the mass, so that you aren't required to do it every week, unless you've done BAAAAAD things, you can still take communion. You ARE still supposed to do it (with the priest, and it used to be with the screen between you and now it's face to face, but some will still do the screen thing if you want) at least...er...once a year? Before major holidays? Mind is slipping on that one.

Oh! They've gone Anglican. We've done it that way since about Henry VIII. Or Queen Elizabeth II. I forget. They're easily confused.
