I would be happy enough with just a reduced work week and reduced hours each day -- something like 10:00 - 2:00, Tue thru Thr -- with the same pay and benefits, of course.

OMG, Nothing would get done. They'd sit around and argue all day long. ![]() But that would be different from today's politics how? |

Oh Geez...can someone snap their fingers and make it Nov. 5th already? I'm tired of talking about candidates, and platforms. Let's get to hanging chads, voter suppression, and election stealing already! Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system. Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help! Help! I'm being repressed! |

Ok you win, I can't really argue with that. ![]() How did your fashon show go yesterday? Also,Jerboa, congrats on the balloon. I'd have to go back and find the thread but I thought there was talk of having a balloon gathering on Nov. 8th. You should certainly join in for that if you can. For the record, I hate discussing politics more than I hate anything else in the world, and generally don't. ![]() The show went...ok. There's rarely a show without some kind of mistake somewhere, and this was no exception. Overall though, it went pretty well.

Much better than having someone take away that which you've worked for, to give it to someone who sits on their ass and expects a handout. Nice generalization. There are plenty of people out there working their asses off and still just scraping by...they experience one bad turn and suddenly need a little help, and you're going to label them all freeloaders? You may have worked for what you have, but you're still lucky to be where you are. Oh, and I really don't want anyone who thought this was a good idea governing our nation: ![]() _____________________
~Now Trout Re-Re-Re-Certified!~
I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things. Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut. |

Oryx's work schedule is far from a normal 9-5 day. She works nights -- therefore her drinking at 9:00 am is like me drinking at 4:00 pm. And Thr morning is the start of her weekend. I knew that only too well . . . which is why I was surprised why she should be commenting on the dislocated sleep patterns of others.

I have to listen to enough of this crap at work, and at home, I'm not dealing with it here. And by the way, that "may have worked"...no kiddo, I've been working my ass off since I was 17 years old and on my own. Nobody gave me a damn thing...ever. _____________________

Hey Ann, public apology - sorry to get short with you. But I really DO hate discussing politics, and especially don't like being lumped into categories.
You vote your way, I'll vote mine. Peace. _____________________

Speaking of that treasure hunt. Are there things for guys too? So far, the two hunts I've done have had loads of stuff for women, but unless nada for the fellers. Is it worth slogging around all creation looking for the ghosts? Men get almost nothing worthwhile for free in sl, Jerboa. Pep (Except the odd woman) _____________________

I have been getting college kids that are younger than my daughter showing up at the door wanting to tell me who I should vote for. ![]() That's why God gave us shotguns. Works for political hacks, home improvement salesmen, religious fanatics and trick or treaters. |
