I like all those tables, especially the last one. I was going to say I liked it just because of the name, but i am also a sucker for under table shelving like that.

The problem with sticking a hot pink post it in the middle of the top of monitor is that I still manage to learn to ignore it pretty fast. Sigh.

I like the looks of that Tamara dining set, but it could get uncomfortable if you have people sitting for an hour or more at dinner parties.

Trump getting the nomination would be fine by me, as he'll drive millions of reasonable moderates to vote Democrat. Though best case scenario is Bush getting the nom and Trump running as an Independent who draws away everyone who'd prefer to vote for their racist grandpa who blurts out whatever he thinks since the stroke.

I think the people who are approving Trump have the Presidential election confused with Big Brother/Survivor. "America's Got President"

I overheard a couple of my co-workers discussing Trump the other day and I was shocked at how approving they were of him. One of them, at least, said she liked some of his policies but he was a racist, and the other one didn't know what she was talking about. So I think people are somehow getting even less news than I do and just approving single sentences they hear he might have said.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

For Trump, that's actually a pretty high bar.

He appeals to the "I'm gonna say whatever I want" crowd, who don't realize that the job he's after isn't Obnoxious Sports Commentator.

Trumps campaign website actually has zero information on his policies or his stand on issues. It mostly has information on himself. In other words, it's perfect.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

He appeals to the "He's saying out loud what I'm actually thinking" crowd.

And he is pulling attention away from Jeb, letting him run a fairly quiet campaign for now.
