just ignore and let this one die

They are all the same and nothing will change until we figure out how to throw them all out and overhaul then entire system.

If those hijackers aimed at a different building on 9/11........

i also did not apply party affiliation to my rant.

The performances, food, decorations, etc.. are privately financed. The security ends up costing the city and the federal government quite a bit. Yes, it will bring lots of visitor dollars into the city (which do result in various tax dollars going to the city), but if it is anything like the DNC here in Denver, it will still cost the government money that it does not really have to spend. Denver took a hard hit from the DNC even though a lot of companies did well from it. Due to that, I will not get a raise in 2009, will get to attend no training classes, and may have to take up to 2 weeks of unpaid time.

When these types of things are truly 100% covered by the people hosting and attending, then I will stop bitching, but not until then.

/me covers her ears from the political discussion

Never mind Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman and their Long Way Round/Down. I just had the Long Way Home. TP was borked, so I took a 33-sim flight.

My arms ache!

Congrats! I always find that fun to do. Getting from my Bay City store from home is a long, long flight (northwest corner to southeast corner of Sansara) but I've done it before.

Sure, TPing would be easier, but sometimes the cross-sim travel can be interesting.

Need a better cape.

Agreed, it can be fun, but I kept fairly high (above 1000m) to avoid sundry security orbs and banlines. Even then, I bumped into one security warning at that height.

I am so NOT doing Superman for my next Flickr spoof. Nope. Nuh-uh.

Hey folks!

Hi Claire.. /me waves... Happy Sunday everyone! I'm making a Key Lime cheesecake today. Who wants some?

Zena

Someone on tv said it was just in case there is an incident that makes it necessary to evacuate a lot of people...



When someone you like is being inaugurated it is bringing much needed money into the local - and beyond - economy and uniting us all in a spirit of well deserved celebration. When it's the other side it's a bunch of rich power brokers draining public resources in ostentatious displays of self indulgence. Not everyone in my town agrees with the football fans who think that a new billion dollar stadium would be cost effective in the long run. But I think we almost all agree that those incompetent CEO greedheads should not be trusted with anymore anything.



Lol I know what you mean I've flown from my workshop to my house before for the same reason. Clear across the map.

From your lips to God's ear.

yummmm!

I always thought UnderDog was more cuddly:


or maybe Mighty Mouse:

Wait. Key lime cheesecake?

pretty close to my reaction... hehe

Wish I could fly off this freakin island I'm stuck on.

I figure it isnt a secret which way i voted and what i feel this country is bordering on this time around.

Just dropped by to do my duty and post something here.

I was at a dance last night wearing my Cornwall flag top. The person dancing next to me was Cornish, according to their profile, but they didn't comment on my top!

They were probably a dance bot.

A little work on the land over the weekend

Beautiful, Lexxi...both the landscaping and you.

1 user agrees.

Another pleasant borked evening everyone!

So glad I pushed myself to take those pix I had to for SL Things to Do this morning. It's the first time the woman who runs the blog asked me to help her out by doing some photos for it. First two days were a bust for personal reasons and then yesterday, things were borked too. I was getting concerned my first gig for her was going to be my last. Thankfully managed to take a bunch of them and email them off before things went kaput here, again.
