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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I guess this is spoilery, but I think Stephen Colbert actually married those people?!?!? Amazing.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Good chair form and padding and that's just the solid comfort of knowing you'll have hours of fires to sit and read by... Very comfy.
Jesse, I believe so. !!!!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So, one fear, Typo Boy, is that if Obama takes any one of the actions you describe, foreign governments may or may not be thrilled. So we still have governmental instability and some payment of bills, but if Congress is still intransigent, foreign markets might not be thrilled.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Why would taking perfectly legal actions to pay our bills bother other nations? It is not as though Congress is going to suddenly become reasonable if they actually gain concession from this homicidal chickenshit. What are the negative consequences we are not already suffering? Congress is pissed? Pissed is what most of the Republican Congress do. The more they win the angrier they are.

Why would taking perfectly legal actions
Because I'm hoping that much like claiming to 'stand your ground' against an unarmed teen in a hoodie and shooting them dead, it's about more than what is precisely legal.
I'm using an example that I think you'll side with as also thinking is horrifying.
Just because you can, you shouldn't. If we're not so much better than that, I might have a problem with being proud to be an American. I'll be an American. But I am going to be so disappointed in our choices.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Typo, there is legal, but Congress (the 20-30 Tea Party of the GOP) is threatening our democracy and democratic process of governing. To the outside world, they will accept our $$, but I can imagine that the $$ as an investment would look a lot less attractive.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Welp, that's the end of last year's Halloween candy. That's almost like an accomplishment.
Perfect timing!
what things do I need to put on my wish list? favorite things in your house? GO!
Art. I want more of it. This is next on my wishlist [link] .
And an area rug (but I'm disinclined to give the cats an expensive puking spot).
