Just heard the other day that Obama-wan, with a single stroke of his mighty pen, has ordered the shut-down of JFCOM here in Norfolk, with an expected net job loss (both civilian and military) of 4000. On the heels of that story was one about breakfast foods, how bacon is up 44%, eggs and other basics also on the rise. The cause, as the talking heads explained it, was increased demand from "emerging economies." Seems a vicious circle to me, sending men and women into

[quote]There's a difference between 'emotional' and 'emotionally stable', at least in my mind. [/quote] Agreed. Just because someone is not good at hiding their emotions does not mean they are overly emotional, out of control emotionally, or otherwise deficient in the arena of self-control. In fact, I think an inability to hide one's emotions indicates a generally hone

Even without a speck of id or proof of address you have the legal right to cast a 'provisional vote.' You'd then be given a set amount of time, I think it's 7 to 10 days, to return your proof of residency to the local board of elections, at which time your vote would be counted. Know your rights! I'd have made a stink and a half, and would have remained on-site while I called the board of elections AND the local media. Some of these volunteer poll workers h

It seems Jared Loughner, the perpetrator of the mass murder in Arizona over the weekend in which a federal judge and a nine year old girl (amongst others) were killed and a Congresswoman was critically wounded was just your average nut-job. He has a few youtube posts up, mostly gibberish about creating a new currency, the way years are enumerated, 'conscience dreaming' (by which I can only assume he means 'lucid dreaming') as well as some minor rants about grammar (his own is atrocious)

[quote]And while it seems we've come to believe that emoticons adequately express our feelings, can you honestly say a "sad face" evokes the same emotional response in you as seeing the pain in the eyes of your friend/family/co-worker as you discuss the issue with them over coffee?[/quote] Wow. I'd give you double karma for that if I could.

It's been a while, a long while. And I've been blogging on a site that didn't allow html code at all. Would someone be kind enough to remind me how to embed a youtube video on here? (snickering and references to my general lameness will be temporarily allowed.) Thanks! S.

[quote]but to your Hotmail account (the one with the forbidden moniker). [/quote] Ah well, that 'splains it. I rarely log in to that one, mainly because it drowns in spam from me using the moniker both here and at Blogster. Pearlcaster is my mainline, bfd, and I'm glad to see you too!

[quote] Not only an article, but one with poetry! I hope Draginol lets by gone be by gones....and you can start posting here in all your glory...[/quote] Me too. Angie told me all I ever really had to do was say 'sorry' so here it is...(as if he's reading)...SORRY! Is she still around? (angie=karma.) I emailed her @ stardock when modman died

[quote] I didn't know about the falling out with Holly. Didn't know about being disabled, either. [/quote] The dark is sweet and peaceful, big daddy, I won't sully your serentity with too many ugly details. Just suffice it to say that she's a very bad gurl, worse than me in every way because she reaches out and touches folks away from the keyboard, a line I've never crossed even though I've threatened to

Just catching up: Some of you here already know me, some don't. My previous moniker is dead and shall remain that way forever more, so please address me as FP or fuppet for short. I'd rather my real name not be used on public sites. In regards to my old nickname, one I'd been using for several years now, it became more of an egregore than a nickname

/facepalm. The above remark was for Tova, thought I was on her blog. You just got some free karma, M-post, lolol! Are you the one she's referring to? Don't feel bad. I lived with my momz too. Until I was 17.
