Not just the US, Todd. Most developed western countries including mine. (Shut up, Pio, it IS developed).
Desire and determination will never be out of the equation. But for those who don't have it, can't get it - someone has to look out for them.

No Todd I am quiet. I was just told to shut up.
besides I have a huge problem. i just moved offices from one building to the next and have been setting up my computer. The optical mouse on one of the computers will not work on the desk where its screen is. It works fine on the other desk. It also will not work with a mouse pad. It stubbornly refuses to work anywhere but on the wrong desk.
I don't know how it knows it's the wrong desk but it obviously does. Now I am operating this computer in the classic Da Vinci spread eagle pose and it is hurting. Maybe I need a new desk?

I would pay to see that so I think you should leave the mouse where it is.

I hate to admit this but my DDs like bluberry muffins. Up till now, I have not been able to have bluberry muffin mix in the house. Now I am going to follow Tuck Tummy's advice and program the iPod for nothing but Bon Jovi and plug it into its Bose speaker in the kitchen and bake blueberry muffins night and day. (if you didn't read the cards, you won't know what I am talking about).
BTW, can we talk about religion? I don't think we have offended enough people yet today. Oh wait, let's not talk about religion - otherwise CG (aka FH) might be tempted to post and I don't want that.

Do you think it is a Freudian slip that I can't spell blueberry?

CG? No don't tell me. It's sure to be offensive.
Don't even think about blueberry. WTH was that all about anyway? I couldn't stomach Bon Jovi for more than a second but I say GO FOR IT.
I don't think we've offended anyone. But wait, I can talk about sex and that will offend EVERYONE.

I just always think of him as CG because there is one thing he and a Christmas Goose have in common.

Desire and determination will never be out of the equation. But for those who don't have it, can't get it - someone has to look out for them. In my best British accent: Really? No, this is the failing of government, of liberal government and that is the notion of equal outcome. The truth is that there are people who don't have drive because the government embarked on a program of national pacification instead of addressing the root problem. If someone is unwilling to take care of themselves, let them become homeless. then they will elevatexd to the status of sainthood.

Oprah was the one who spewed the nonsense about eating less than three hours before bedtime causes weight gain. And eating in the morning doesn't of course.
I want to rock and roll all night
And party every day.

There is a door right outside my new office with a sign on it that says "Absolutely No Admittance!". It just really bothers me. I mean, if absolutely nobody can use it, why did they put the door there in the firstp lace? Why not just leave it a solid wall? I just can't get any work done because of that sign. I need a vacation.

My other pet peeve is all these software books I have that have 10 or 15 empty pages at the back that don't have anything on them except the message "This page intentionally left blank".
By doing that, the page is no longer blank. In fact, it was left intentionally non-blank.
I wish they would change the message to read:
"This page intentionally left blank except for this message saying it is blank which technically means that it isn't really blank even though it is intended to be. So, apart from this message, the rest is intentionally blank so the page is essentially blank except for this little bit."
Is that asking too much?

Dealan-de,
Can I ask you what you meant when you said I had separated myself from the miasma that WW created? I have thought about that since last night. I was just wondering. It kind of has me worried.
I now see WW in a totally new light - and she has on the wrong kind of makeup for it.
