Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Soldiers are essential, but won't get paid until the shutdown is over. Since this Friday is the halfway point in the pay period, they'll get a paycheck for one week instead of two. It's going to screw up the financial lives of a lot of enlisted soldiers. They're already paycheck to paycheck in the best of times.

thanks for the correction. I may have been in a rage blackout when I heard on the news that that soliders wouldn't get paid, so didn't process the rest.

Always Anti-fascist!

No, Perkins, that would be *my* unexpected sample. Some McNulty fanfic or something.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Carlisle Cullen? I am offend.

Also, I want Richie Rich higher on the list, and Bruce to top Tony. But that might have nothing to do with money.

I know I shouldn't spend time hating Gwynnie, but seriously?

TWO of them get a pass. The rest of them can go take a flying leap.

Well, my current HMO is no longer going to be one of my choices for the next year. I hope that my local clinic will still be available to me - otherwise I'll have to change ALL of my doctors and it will be even less easy for me to get to them.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Bruce to top Tony.

Yes, please. Or, really, I'm okay with it the other way, too.

Also, that's a hot picture of Tony Stark. It could only be better if he were in a tank top undershirt.

t edit And I'm amused that Jed Clampett is richer than Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne.
