'Why We Fight'
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.
I think this might fit ita's complete requirements. To tell the truth, I'd like one myself.
On second thought no. Not an actual robot cat, Just has robot hair, robot expressions and head turning and so forth. Basically a stuffed animal that responds to petting. I want the feline equivalent of the Doctor's K9.
Now I am working on people in the office. I really think pet-matchmaker should be a job for me. Like 1 dya a week I find people their pets. I enjoy it so much more than my real work (although I have gotten a fair amount of that done today also).
So, a guy I went to high school with is spewing Right Wing talking points all over a post of mine on FB today. Erika has already waded into the fray quite impressively, but if anyone else wants to smack the guy down, please fee free. [link]
Thanks. It's like on Buffy...it's all connected. Maybe that guy should hang out with the witches in Devon for a bit. And given his follow-up point, I would not be surprised if President Romney, in his scenario, technically kept the company "open", but, not you know, making cars. They'd still have a board of directors, though. Although I don't know business terms for things I would call "JR Ewing shit," But it would allow him to say he never closed a single factory.
I can't scrappy he makes my head hurt
Mitt Romney kind of thinks like my father...it disturbs me. Ironically, my father will probably vote for Obama.
I am thnking of going to see Coco tonight
You guys don't get the importance of tricks, do you?
I love google voice's absolute Jamaican accent fail. Here's a transcription of the message my apartment manager left (italics are the low confidence words):
Yeah, Hi, It's John just calling to see whether the maintenance guy came by to replace your light bulb, and 60 stopped or in your bathroom sink. If it's still an issue. Please give me a call, tell me get on it. Thanks, A bye.
Workable, right? I don't need to listen to that one.
This one is, I *think*, from my father:
Okay, This is This means abduction Kirk, love to. After almost on that day talk to you a message. Although I did speak to you, but I can call for thinking of the contest. Thanks a lot, and I will get them, and we'll talk to you soon. Some.
By the date (14th), I think he's calling for his post-birthday conversation ("Although I did speak to you" does make sense, although google's not 100% behind it), but without that context (and from an unlisted number)...yeah. My father's accent is not strong. My sister? It doesn't usually transcribe at all.

Oh man, he has such a long list of misleading and outright incorrect statements that I don't have nearly enough time to go through them. Nor really the inclination.
The deficit did not double under Obama, not even close. Nor did the debt double under Obama.
I've never heard of Obama wanting $10 a gallon gas or trying to bankrupt any company who tries to build a coal plant, don't have time to research that.
The net number of jobs has not decreased by 9 million under the Obama administration, but I suspect the metric is the from the start of the administration to the lowest point of employment.
Tax revenues did increase when after Reagan's tax cut of 1981, but there were tax increases later in Reagan's presidency an revenues increased at a lower rate than during the previous or following 8 year period. Over and 8 year period inflation and population growth will always increase revenue, you need to compare periods.
Ack. I just don't have time to even think about all of it. Got too much shit to do.
