If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

The breaking news is all over the place - Rosenstein is about to resign, Rosenstein is about to be fired, Rosenstein has already resigned, Rosenstein will not resign.

Also, since I won't have anyplace to stow luggage during the last day of the conference I had to pack everything (including CPAP) into a backpack.

Too late now, but hotels generally will stow your bags after checkout until you're ready to go.

I didn't know that, but that's good to know. Thanks. Still, just having a backpack sure makes getting around easy.

Noel Francisco stepping in to oversee the Muller investigation is just . . . not something I want to think about.

Guess that will divert the news from Kavanaugh. Insanity.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

We'd better hope that he's fired, so 45 can't appoint his successor. If Rosenstein resigns, the administration can appoint whoever they want to the position.

Lots of reports that he resigned, but I hope not.

Shrift when you are done with the hulksuit can I borrow it please.

Not sure if I'll ever be done with it at this rate, but perhaps we can work out a timeshare, or just go full Tony Stark and build a hulksuit for every occasion.

The breaking news is all over the place - Rosenstein is about to resign, Rosenstein is about to be fired, Rosenstein has already resigned, Rosenstein will not resign.

The current report is that none of that happened, and Rosenstein still has his job.

It certainly sounds like Trump tried to force him to resign, but Rosenstein called his bluff.
