Just another environmental issue to ease you to sleep tonight – I just watched the whole documentary, and I’m more angry with Dick Cheney than I’ve ever been:
TJ/ BABY EINSTEIN AND ITS ENTIRE MANAGEMENT TEAM SAVE FOR THE COORDINATOR AND THE CUTE GUY SUCK HAIRY SCHWEATTY BALLS!!!!!!
Actually, I think the cute guy sucks balls too, but in an entirely different context.
Work sucks, then you die.
KTHANXBI!
@Tommmcat Still Gets Carly Confused With Meg: That’s pretty funny.
One of the last acts of Cheney/Bush was to open vast tracts of NY State including the Catskill Park where we live. They would have allowed drilling for gas to go on in the Catskill high peaks wilderness. It was all done very secretly. At first it looked as if it couldn’t be stopped but just about 3 months ago something happened which I don’t entirely understand but which it seems has stopped it from happening here at least. They were being required by the DEP to run a full environmental impact study for every bore they sank which ties everything up in years of process and huge amounts of money. Doubtless they’ll be back. Both the worry and the safeguard is that this region provides most of NYC’s drinking water and the city has no filtration plant. Of course, some bright spark will be tempted to grab a quick profit by selling off some of the city’s thousands of acres some of which are next door. But we stopped a casino and an appalling ‘resort’ golf club so maybe we’ll be lucky.
@Tommmcat Still Gets Carly Confused With Meg: You OK? This is not sounding happy.
@Benedick:
I am okay. I’d like to see some serious Titus Andronicus shit go down over there though, if you know what I mean. Those people make my life hell.
Still at work, by the way.
@Tommmcat Still Gets Carly Confused With Meg: I must have missed that thread … good luck? Hope everything works out?
@Tommmy:

@Original Andrew: @blogenfreude: @Benedick: @JNOV:
Thanks guys. Just a tough day. Plus, all that slurping from the BEC.
@Tommmcat Still Gets Carly Confused With Meg: My significant other isn’t usually here on Wednesdays, but came over tonight because she needs to get some work done and I have a password-protected broadband network that WORKS. I feel, sort of, your pain.
@Tommmcat Still Gets Carly Confused With Meg: Easy, baby. Here’s a drink of Korean tea to calm you down.

@baked: @Tommmcat Still Gets Carly Confused With Meg: I just rejoined the gym. I have got to lose 15 lbs or buy new trousers. Or lose 15lbs and buy new trousers. And Catt, hope your day is better. Just remember we’re always here to abuse you.
