1:33 am
puglet

thank you
1:35 am
grannyrose

yay, pugs...you are so great....yes, that is good for her doctor, that way he can keep track of her caloric intake, and adjust meds accordingly.
1:37 am
puglet

my love was being obnoxious yesterday :(
2:11 am
puglet

did he get up on the wrong side of the bed
2:12 am
sprite

probably. He came to pick me up from group, but group took a little longer to finish. Usually I have to wait for at least half an hour for him and I don't mind, am happy for the ride. But he was early and so he had to wait and he was angry about it.
2:13 am
grannyrose

aww,sprite....so sorry about rob....did i get it right?
2:13 am
sprite

and I got angry too because I couldn't have prevented this... couldn't keep my phone on in sessions, couldn't step out because things were very intense (which is why we were late) and couldn't call him during sessions either.
2:13 am
sprite

you got it right, hun, my love is Rob
2:14 am
puglet

I get the same feedback when my dh has to wait on me
2:14 am
grannyrose

good....i got it right, that is...not good that he was angry...
2:15 am
puglet

well it was something you couldnt help and he will get over it
2:15 am
sprite

I suggested he would come a little later in future so I would always be the one who had to wait for him. He stayed angry. Then at home he threw that solution to me as if it was my punishment. Tsk.
2:15 am
gapeach

Dear peeps, I must start getting ready for bed. Have a wonderful time chatting with each other....that is what it is all about. Hugs all 'round.
2:16 am

2:16 am

Hi rose
2:19 am

hehehe I know you do, pug. We had one person who is done with the therapy and were saying goodbye, and one who is so frustrated that she considered quitting and we had to find out what she really needed.
2:21 am
puglet

was she able to tell you then
2:21 am
grannyrose

hope you were successful, sprite. there is nothing worse than leaving with issues unresolved.
2:21 am
puglet

need to refill coffee cup-brb
2:22 am
sprite

yes I think we did. I have this coaching's training and it enables me to really listen. Which is what she needed... more than the "I think you are overreacting" approach of the therapist.
2:23 am
grannyrose

hmmm, therapist needs a life lesson, methinks.
2:25 am
sprite

I guess it is sometimes hard to see whether you need to prod a little or just listen. My feeling is that when someone has requested one-on-one counselling several times and is clamping shut because she isn't taken seriously, it is time to let go of the protocol and offer the 1-on-1, or at least make the way free to get it elsewhere.
2:25 am
grannyrose

*grin* reminds me of a twenty-something, who said to me ..i empathise with how you are feeling...i told her, you need another 10 ye4s, three kids, and a husband who has cheated on you...

“You can never really know someone completely. That’s why it’s the most terrifying thing in the world, really—taking someone on faith, hoping they’ll take you on faith too. It’s such a precarious balance, It’s a wonder we do it at all. And yet..”
― Libba Bray

Hello Joso. just read your profile. Back in the mid 1980s we had a simple graphic game on computer - a drop-and-fit consisting of partitioned three-coloured lozenge shapes to fit into a frame by matching colours across boundaries. i.e. a tesselation game. Do you know what this was?
2:58 am
scouser

may have been four-colours?
2:59 am

are you talking about tetris?
2:59 am
o-o

“The 3 types of terror: The Gross-out: the sight of a severed head tumbling down a flight of stairs, it's when the lights go out and something green and slimy splatters against your arm. The Horror: the unnatural, spiders the size of bears, the dead waking up and walking around, it's when the lights go out and something with claws grabs you by the arm. And the last and worse one: Terror, when you come home and notice everything you own had been taken away and replaced by an exact substitute. It's when the lights go out and you feel something behind you, you hear it, you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around, there's nothing there...” ― Stephen King

Imagine a man who doesn't believe in anything, hope for anything, doesn't love anyone. This is a description of a dead or paralyzed soul. This happens from great grief, or from an unhappy upbringing when parents make from their children's souls paralytics. ~Simon Soloveychik

standard brands add sugar sprite, or you can get this hippy dippy all natural stuff that separates into oil and rock.
3:34 am
sprite

ro4, could be because of the gun you were holding against her temple?
3:34 am
grannyrose

sprite, did you find the other 8?
3:34 am

3:36 am
joso

pug you sound like my dad and his cheese whiz. he would take cheeze whiz and anything, slap it between bread and call it a sandwich, cheeze whiz and cold brown beans still give my stomach a twist
3:36 am
sprite

it is not a dutch holiday, pug, as such.
3:37 am
grannyrose

not yet, sprite...will probably be talking to a brick wall...lolol
3:37 am
joso

out thanks giving has come and gone pug
3:37 am
grannyrose

not he4 pugs...
3:38 am
sprite

nah, he loves you to pieces. He will be willing to leave off his cellphone for one day, if you tell him you really need him to be there for you 100%.
3:38 am

but you all have xmas the same as I
3:39 am
sprite

I seriously doubt it, lol, pug. God I hate Xmas... wish we could skip.
3:39 am
grannyrose

yeah...i he4 you, sister...problem...hope he does...
3:39 am
sprite

or stop paying the bill right now... he might be disconnected by the time your op comes up :D
3:40 am
grannyrose

i am trying to prepare for christmas before surgery...am thinking the pain killers will probably wipe out my neurones. have bought all the christmas cards etc.
3:41 am
sprite

wow, you are good. Am gonna discuss it with the kids. See what they want.
3:41 am
grannyrose

just a few chrissy pressies to buy...
3:43 am
puglet

two summers ago my girlfriend kept complaining of this person that was always calling her. I told her to just not answer it or put a block on it. She wouldnt take any action on fixing the problem so I done it for her! I put it at the bottom of the ice chest! Wahlah that stopped it! And my girlfriend couldnt believe I done that! lol
3:43 am
joso

I think thanks giving is just you and me pug, though mine is a month earlier, christmas is all over, but strongest in christian nations aas you would expect
3:44 am
sprite

lololllll pug, you rock, girl
3:44 am
puglet

I like what xmas means but I hate it for the last few years due to no money to buy gifts
3:44 am
sprite

Xmas becomes more and more a worship of the almighty dollar.
3:44 am
grannyrose

lolol, pugs....well done, hun
3:45 am
joso

i'm surprised you don't like christmas sprite, i would think you'd love giving gifts
3:45 am
puglet

she nows keeps her new phone out of my reach--lol
3:46 am
sprite

in the Netherlands, it is with Sinterklaas that we give gifts, and Xmas used to be a quiet family holiday. But nowadays we follow the american example and it is big bigger biggest gifts, lots of noise and stress, excessive dinners, blech. I like Midwinter.
3:47 am
sprite

hehehe pug, I can imagine. But you did put an end to the obnoxious caller.
3:47 am
grannyrose

my son actually told me off this year. as my kris kringle gift, i asked him to buy me a useful gift from the compassion site. ( a christian organisation which tries to help third world countries). he said...mum, i rarely have the opportunity to buy you something personal at christmas...' what do you WANT? "
3:48 am
sprite

awwww that is SO sweet!
3:48 am
joso

hehehe, so cool pug
3:48 am
puglet

well he loves you Rose and he wants to get for YOU
3:49 am
grannyrose

yeah, i know...
3:49 am
puglet

I dont mean this a mean minded but I dont understand these country that keeps having kids knowing they cant feed them
3:50 am
grannyrose

pugs...there is no access to birth control, hun...
3:51 am
joso

I'm with your son, someone once gave me a donation to save the rainforests in my name, told them where to stick it, i like rain forests just fine, If you want to donate go right ahead, but don't pretend you are doing me any favors.
3:51 am
puglet

there is such a thing as backing out of the hole
3:51 am
sprite

no birth control, not much to do at nights but you know what, and a higher mortality rate so the biological urge to reproduce is very strong.
3:52 am
sprite

leaving church before the singing, as they call it here, pug. Very frustrating and not at all dependable.
3:53 am
puglet

it would seem like their goverment would provide them the bith control rather than seeing so many children starving and worse
3:53 am
sprite

fireflies, and I have to go. *hugs* to you all. Take care and have a good day/night.
3:54 am
puglet

bye Sprite enjoy your day

it's not really a country's decision pug, it's most often the decision of 2 nervous, excited, sweaty, ill informed teens. god bless them but not the best decision makers.

*giggle* ruby, tell him to put a sock in it...
4:02 am
rubyfoo

joso, what I (used to) like about Thanksgiving was that it was totally non-sectarian,not Christian at all. We even celebrated it here for the first 9 years or so, but it got to be too expensive and the Fr didn't get it. Especially since I would get weepy thanking God for my friends
4:02 am
joso

don't let it sour your whole day, after all you are here now, in wunderful wanderful babble land
4:02 am
rubyfoo

I used to pay more than $130 for a turkey which would have been given away free in an American supermarket
4:03 am

I try to think it' just husband's age, but the anger certainly looks like Alzheimer's. "A rose by any name......"
4:04 am

whoops, pb for me
4:04 am
rubyfoo

somebody seems very well-connected!
4:05 am

i agree, supposed to be about safe arrival at the new land, but really is about spending a whole day with family and friends climaxing with a great meal.
4:05 am

4:06 am
grannyrose

hey,, you calling me a turkey??
4:07 am
rubyfoo

I think you're more expensive than that, ro**
4:09 am
joso

really rose, you think someone is going to pay 130$ for a scrawny old bird like you.
4:09 am
rubyfoo

ah but i took loads of zinc lozenges as i felt it coming on, so, mine is going to be shorter and less severe.
6:41 am
Scrabbler

Good. I take zinc and echinacea at the first sign. And I take a higher dose of vitamin D all winter. 5000 IU/day
6:42 am
hurshy

it is depressing though, today i have to go to work instead of just staying in bed
6:42 am
Scrabbler

It's better to work than just think about how lousy you feel.
6:42 am
hurshy

not for me it isn't
6:43 am

i was perfectly happy in bed watching gilmore girls, napping, reading, cuddling with cats
6:43 am

Well, that does sound nice.
6:43 am

now, if you have a satisfying career, like you do, SC, it might be different. but if you don't care about your job at all...

It's not always satisfying. I see many uber-anxious mamas, bratty kids, and most adolescents are beyond my help.

ugh, i'm so depressed.
6:52 am
Anniebrook

and he is???
6:53 am
Anniebrook

football ??
6:53 am
hurshy

the quarterback for the green bay packers
6:54 am
Anniebrook

sorry that you are depressed..poor aaron rodgers. I re4 about Incognito and that depresses me.
6:56 am
hurshy

yeah - i had a debate with my husband about him. i said it sounds like he's had so many second chances and at some point can't they just ban people from the NFL? but then of course he reminds me that we don't believe in people not being allowed to work because of their mistakes but i said, but not making THAT much money!
6:57 am
Anniebrook

What I think he did is criminal.
6:57 am
hurshy

but other people in the NFL have also done criminal things. murder, for instance.
6:58 am
Anniebrook

and they went to prison. This guy is dangerous.
6:58 am
hurshy

yeah
6:58 am
hurshy

but
6:59 am
hurshy

prison also probably will not fix him. that is the hard question. how do you fix people when they have gotten all screwed up by their stupid parents
6:59 am
hurshy

because if you send them to prison, then they come out worse, that's not better.
6:59 am
Anniebrook

LOL, hurshy, no buts. He threaten this player, extorted money from him. I dont think Incognito should be imprisoned but I think he should be banned from the NFL.
7:00 am
hurshy

i think it is so interesting that his name is incognito and that the sort of things he is guilty of are things that kind of go incognito in our society.
7:02 am
Anniebrook

I thought the same thing about his name. I think the violent nature of football went to his he4. You are probably right about his parents. I am sure they saw signs of his bullying in his younger days and did nothing of didnt care.

7:03 am

no annie, i read about it, his dad was horrible, and told him specifically not to take any sh** from anyone - taught him to be this way.
7:04 am

it's not IGNORING signs of trouble, it's creating the trouble that that father did

10:58 am
dianedecoder

Good grief.... what's Molly on about now? Molly (and I know you read everything), your profile posts are pathetic... give it a rest. You are always on a witch hunt about something with accusations in abundance. Unless somesone is being abusive in chat, stalking or harassing, what IS the problem?? Just relax and enjoy the chat !! There, I got that off my chest....been bothering me for months as I read the negative posts.
11:00 am
Aloyisius

no clue
11:02 am
Aloyisius

I enjoy chat too, but keep it closed a lot as I try to find as many as I can, sans help.. so I miss a lot of what is going on
11:03 am
Aloyisius

.. and it looks like I missed a bunch of past tenses in this grid..
11:03 am
Aloyisius

11:16 am
zoozzoom

Just back with a cup of tea..not sure what has happened in the chat log in relation to Molly, but i have found her to be rather kind and witty...unless i have missed something...as to what is in a babblers profile.Surely that is upto the individual what they put in there...if no one likes it..then surely don't click on it to read...not having a go at any one..just saying.
11:16 am
Aloyisius

last word for me was the alt. pl spelling of "nothing", ze6.33.. guess Jerry left the scene, so I'm going to poof and get some things done. Hagd, everyone!

Molly is convinced that there is skullduggery going on in babble. She's claiming that crosshair and joso are one and the same. No evidence given so far,
11:52 am

11:54 am

11:56 am

Hello, Nan :-)
11:56 am

11:57 am
crosshair

11:57 am
crosshair

i would love to read the profile in question but she seems to not be on atm
11:58 am
Haz1558

Molly has loathed crosshair for ages, that's hardly a secret. I just don't know how she's become convinced that he's a pathological liar in need of psychiatric help - unless she's talking about another babbler.
11:58 am
crosshair

wait,found it
11:59 am
crosshair

lol,bit thin on info,but wife has said for years that i am insane,i am just her kind of insane is all;)
12:00 pm
Haz1558

Maybe someday she'll explain so that those of us who are less astute than her can share in the information.
12:00 pm
zoozzoom

I think being insane is helpful in this crazy world, Crossy :-)
12:00 pm

12:00 pm

12:01 pm

12:18 pm

she isn't fat but is very big all over, almost indistinguishable from the male, even though he weighs close to 40. She just has tiny tiny ears and his are pointed

Ahh i see...are your dogs still bringing in the mud, Ruby?
12:19 pm
rubyfoo

joso, what kind of dog was it? and how big did it get?
12:20 pm
rubyfoo

especially with this rain. The male stays clean but the "baby" looks like she lives in a pig sty
12:20 pm
rubyfoo

12:21 pm

she's very cute, though, and full of the dickens. Looks for mischief wherever
12:22 pm
joso

he was 145 lbs at his biggest, but 120 was his fit weight. looked bigger as he had curly hair. Bovie was his breed.
12:22 pm
zoozzoom

That is a nice trait to have in a dog..always playful.
12:22 pm
rubyfoo

that is huge! I'd be totally overwhelmed
12:23 pm
rubyfoo

The nice thing is that her influence is making the male playful again, even though he's almost 2 and he been pretty dignified before she arrived
12:24 pm
zoozzoom

hope you don't mind me asking, Ruby, how is your DH?
12:24 pm
joso

the most surprising thing about him was that he could do a vertical leap of 6 feet. very odd to have him eye to eye with you for a half second or so.
12:25 pm
zoozzoom

lol Joso...not keen when a dog licks my face..YUK!...i know they are happy to see us but err.
12:26 pm
rubyfoo

ty for asking, zzoozz, he is trying to be nice, but he is sad and sees the end approaching. He's very forgetful and knows it
12:27 pm
rubyfoo

Moosie jumps straight up, but only a few inches. But I let both of them lick my face and he**. And Rufe lets me put my he** on his back when I'm petting him, he just murmurs and snuggles more
12:27 pm
zoozzoom

((Ruby)) It must be hard for both of you.
12:28 pm
rubyfoo

he dogs help keep me sane
12:28 pm

12:46 pm
zoozzoom

Not good, Nan.best as you said to get it repaired,if the frost gets into the tiny crack it wil make it much larger.
12:47 pm
zoozzoom

Over here, that is normally covered by the car insurance so you would not have to pay to get it fixed...not sure if that is the same where you are.
12:47 pm

Ouch..sorry to hear that :-(
12:49 pm

better than last time though - we'd only had the new car 2 weeks when we had to replace the windshield - that one was $200
12:50 pm

Bloody hell..you have not had much luck with your windshields have you.

My sister just got a second hand car two weeks ago..and already they are saying the head gasket has blown.
12:51 pm

it's the penalty of living in the mountains, where roads are always under some sort of repair or covered in fine gravel during the winter.
12:52 pm
cybernan

Now that is an expensive one, joso!
12:52 pm
cybernan

no warantee on the car? or did she buy it privately?
12:52 pm
zoozzoom

Yes she paid €1200 for the car too!
12:53 pm
zoozzoom

Privately..so no come backs.
12:53 pm
cybernan

ouch!
12:54 pm
zoozzoom

She needs a car to take the children to school..so is frantically looking for another one.
12:55 pm
cybernan

wouldn't it be cheaper to fix the one she bought?
12:55 pm
cybernan

does she live on wight too?
12:56 pm
zoozzoom

Wel i said that to her..but she reckons when one thing goes on a car it normally means most other things are going to go wrong with it.
12:56 pm
zoozzoom

I know nothing about cars..so just say if you say so.
12:56 pm
zoozzoom

She does, Nan.

Teehee....although when sumer time hits...we also get lots of tourists coming over.
1:00 pm
cybernan

We had a great time the day we spent on Wight -- despite getting lost in all those narrow twisting lanes! I wish we had allotted a couple of days there instead of just one.
1:00 pm

Traffic then is a ruddy nightmare.

Yes you should of done....Blackgang chine & around freshwater are the most scenic areas of the island.

We have 'Guy fawkes' night here..and lots of loud banging fireworks keep making me jump out of my skin..will have this all night now :-(
1:20 pm
ursh

zoom we have guy fawkes here as well as diwali with many loud bangs - like a war zone - poor animals. Awful picture on facebook of dog who picked up big banger which exploded in his mouth - poor thing had to be put down. SPCA used the pic to try and get people to take care of their animals with fireworks
1:23 pm
zoozzoom

That is aweful, Ursh, so sad..my parents had many dogs a while back and we had to sit with them and hug them to try and keep them calm.
1:25 pm
ursh

my cats are also terrified - one under the table and one in the linen cupboard until it quietens. We have local rule which says no bangs after 10pm - very difficult to police
1:26 pm
zoozzoom

Very difficult to police is right..with all the local youth who think it is funny to go round in cars and throw them at people when they drive past..and this is way past the 10pm watershed.
1:28 pm
ursh

the authorities tried to ban big bangs to no avail - freely available in eastern/indian shops
1:29 pm
ursh

the scary thing is these fireworks are bl***y expensive and people complain all the time about a shortage of money for essentials but have no qualms spending big bucks on fireworks ??
1:30 pm
zoozzoom

Some people take apart a lot of the fireworks and make them into really big ones..the noise is like a bomb has gone off.
1:32 pm
ursh

good grief
1:32 pm
zoozzoom

I think fireworks are a complete waste of money..if i liked that sort of thing, i would rather go to an organised fireworks display than buy my own.
1:34 pm
zoozzoom

Haha talking of fireworks.....fireworks for me!
1:34 pm

good going zoom - 12 left here

We have Guy Fawkes, Diwali and Eid, all close together. I live in an Asian area and they love their fireworks, the louder the better. Tonight, it's like bombs going off. One cat went out and I don't where he is. Hope he's OK.

Not quite as cold as often as where crossy lives
5:48 pm

ugh!! you can keep it then...lol. does anywhere in the US of A have the temperate winters as we do?
5:48 pm
Jillyjill

Yes...lots of them
5:50 pm
grannyrose

it's so strange....all we ever see is your huge snowstorms, hurricanes, tornadoes, so the majority of oz folk think that the whole of america is like that.
5:52 pm
grannyrose

or in the summer, all we see is raging bushfires. why can't the more moderate weathers be televised? not news worthy i guess. but it does give a distorted view of america
5:52 pm
Jillyjill

It' a big country...something for everyone. I do like change in seasons so it's ok for me. Besides, one can always add layers of clothing..
5:53 pm
Jillyjill

Well, the fires are pretty real here in the west...whether one agrees on global warming or not, something has changed
5:53 pm
SarahBellum

Lol, all we ever see here in Europe is raging bushfires on Oz, so the majority of Europeans think that Oz is a great big desert that's often fire
5:54 pm
grannyrose

lolol, sarah....good grief.....all too true
5:54 pm
SarahBellum

I'm from Ireland, which is the very definition of temperate. It's never too hots, it's never too cold, no snow storms, bushfires or hurricanes.
5:54 pm
SarahBellum

Instead it's just grey and drizzly all year round!
5:54 pm
Jillyjill

Kinda sad how, despite an internet connected world, we still can't see the big picture...
5:56 pm

Took Bagheera to the vet this am and it turns out he was in a cat fight. The wound was a puncture wound.
6:44 pm
joso

so he/she is ok now
6:45 pm
phandmd

yeah, he is fine. So glad I had found him though. He pulls his hair out and it was 35 degrees overnight. I don't think that would have been good for him
6:46 pm
joso

oh, so not yours, a foundling
6:46 pm
phandmd

oh, no, he is mine.
6:47 pm
phandmd

have had him since he was about 1.5 yrs old. He is 15 now.
6:48 pm
phandmd

He had gotten out and wasn't coming to my calls. That is what I meant by found him. And when we did find him, he didn't come, rather he hid and made it difficult for us to get him.
6:48 pm
joso

ah, so he is otherwise fit, glad all is good now. what does he look like?
6:48 pm
joso

yea, they do that when they are hurt
6:48 pm
phandmd

he is a black cat, hence his name. (The panther from Jungle Book)
6:49 pm
joso

sleek and dangerous looking
6:49 pm
phandmd

well, maybe in his youth.
6:50 pm
joso

plump and content
6:50 pm
phandmd

well, he is underweight, so skinny and feeble looking. especially with only 1/2 his hair.
6:51 pm
joso

a black fritz the cat, the velveteen bunny of cats

7:37 pm
rolin

are other ppl finding this grid challenging?
7:38 pm
Rows

ooh, well i technically am having caffeine since i'm having guaro & coke, but i think the guaro does a good job of cancelling out the caffeine...
7:38 pm
Rows

i couldn't sleep later if i were only drinking coke
7:38 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

when the "war on drugs" gets tired of criminalizing steroids and antihistamines they're going to go after caffeine
7:38 pm
Jillyjill

Not too bad of a grid with all the pl, pt and other endings..
7:39 pm

deceptive rolin, lots of easy words, then you notice progress is grinding to a hault

moving from China to Honduras kinda gives one some fireworks withdrawals... the Chinese love their gunpowder
7:43 pm
rolin

not me,,,i hate it.. my friend's dog was bitten by another dog who was spooked by them... andin the uk any idiot can buy any amount and then set them off late night...
7:44 pm
Rows

ah
7:44 pm
rolin

if they were used under control.. then fine.. but just too random at the moment
7:44 pm
Rows

i guess on a weeknight that would be annoying
7:44 pm
grannyrose

roln, we used to do the fireworks. i can emember my dad nailing the catherine wheels to the fence, and filling milk bottles with soil, to sit the rockets in.
7:45 pm
Rows

nice, rose
7:45 pm
rolin

me too rose... and i used to go around collecting used bangers off the nature strip... i took them back home unwrapped them collected the gunpowder and my big bro would make explosions for me...lol
7:46 pm
grannyrose

it's kinda sad that our kids and grandkiddies can't enjoy the same sort of freedom we had as kids.
7:46 pm

gah, now i'm wishing i at least had some sparklers or small firecrackers
7:46 pm

7:47 pm

7:47 pm

we have 2 holidays in canada when fireworks are fired up, seems about right, too much might make them too common
7:47 pm

well it could be a sort of pay-back?? from all that noise they make late at night..lol
7:47 pm

8:01 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

type word into the "add word" box, and it the game would accpet it, it will say "not in the puzzle" (if not, it will say "not found in the dictionary")

8:03 pm
Rows

hada, raro, serio, etc.
8:03 pm
Jillyjill

McAuliffe won, and Cuccinelli lost. So, the hard-right bigot lost. Good riddance to him. He's our former attorney general.

Book Doctor Gwen

you know, i can find almost anything on the web except election returns. i mean returns from my onw little suburb. every time there's an election i try to find them, but all i can find is *precinct* data, with no totals, no info on who won
9:12 pm
dcseain

We area strong-governor, unitary state. The governor can introduce legislation. So this pleases me a lot.
9:12 pm
dcseain

sbe.virginia.gov has all ours. One benefit of a unitary state.
9:16 pm
dcseain

hi, joso
9:17 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

well, i just spent few moments trying to find them again. i can't find who won city council seats, but i did find results of school bond issue
9:20 pm
joso

your election was mentioned on the daily show DC, as was our mayor
9:20 pm
dcseain

school bond in my county passed by the usual about 75%. :)
9:21 pm
dcseain

Ah, your mayor. You must be in Toronto :)
9:21 pm
joso

yes, not normally a notorious city, ty Mr. Ford
9:22 pm
dcseain

Having lived through a Marion Barry administration in DC, i feel for you.
9:23 pm
joso

normally I dislike our mayors powers being so weak, but at the moment it's a blessing.
9:27 pm
o-o

Detroit holds an election for mayor when a state-appointed emergency manager has all the power?
9:28 pm
o-o

I guess the winner will have time to play Babble.
9:29 pm

I find detroit fascinating, such an unusual set of problems and set of circumstances.
9:30 pm
Bugsaw

any clues for the re 6, please?
9:31 pm

re6, listen again
9:31 pm

I find Michigan politics to be reactionary to the point the state constitution has no purpose.
9:31 pm

thankyou joso, I was going nuts

"The "trickle-down" theory: the principle that the poor, who must subsist on table scraps dropped by the rich, can best be served by giving the rich bigger meals." ~William Blum

o-o, the attorney general's race is now to close to call.
9:58 pm
dcseain

Blum is quite right.
9:59 pm

good .... is Bob McDonnell going to ride off into the sunset without repercussions from his ethical misadventures?
10:01 pm
joso

yes, it amazed me at the time that anyone anyone bought into trickle down, and some still do even today.
10:02 pm
dcseain

No, he's still under investigation, as are parts of his staff and his wife.
10:03 pm
dcseain

One good thing McDonnell did in his term is keep Cuccinelli on a short leash.
10:23 pm
