  1. Ha ha Gem.

    The next time I dress up for Halloween I’m dressing as a French motorcycle terrorist.

    -Black helmet two sizes too small
    -battered leather jacket with diagonal zipper
    -tight black jeans
    -jackboots.

    And all I’ll say all night long is,

    “Get een the fecking cahr!”

  2. Question for the tech nerds out there:

    any recommendations on how I could wirelessly play music from my computer on my home stereo system? Does that Apple Airport Express thing do that? Sound quality isn’t really a concern.

  3. I’m not blaming Wall Street. I’m blaming certain key elements of the financial sector which oversold, over-financialized and over-mortgaged our economy; it’s just easier to say ‘Wall Street’ as that’s where many of them are.

    The point is, both the Repubs and the Tea Party are blaming government (incluing the infamous ‘get govt hands off my Medicare) when it’s main screwup was lax and non-existent regulation. By the Bush admin. Now most of that is also a fact, larded with opinion

    Fruit-flavored candy like Jolly Rancher, Skittles, those strawberry things, Sweettarts, and Spree were the candy I most liked to get.

    Chocolate candy like mini-bars of 3 Musketeers, Snickers, Twix, Hershey: no thanks.

    Think I’ll go “stock up” at lunchtime

    -IJ, you and I would make good trick or treat partners then as I hate all the fruit candy!

  5. Benson, why would I be complaining about manufacturing jobs? Oh I get it, like Theodore Dreiser. Well, point taken.

    But the real question is whether or not the jobs we are losing will be replaced with new ones.

    I don’t know the answer to that.

    Maybe.
