  1. Do we know what kind of leave of absence she was requesting?  I find it hard to imagine that they were telling her she'd be fired if she didn't show up to work today. I work at a place with stellar benefits, but if the same thing happened to me I'd be paid for as long as the sick time lasted and given an option for leave without pay after that.

    Democratic attendance: Perhaps the greatest X factor for the vote is whether Democrats can deliver on their confident projections of full attendance. It would require the return of members like Rep. Dwight Evans (Pa.), out since July following what his office called a “minor” stroke; former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), who is recovering from hip replacement surgery; and members like Reps. Raul Grijalva (Ariz.) and Gerry Connolly (Va.), recovering from or in the midst of cancer treatment.

    I get that illness and injury happen, but what the hell?  These aren't your typical office workers who need the income to survive.  These are some of the most important jobs in the country.  Either you can do it or not.

    Colorado Bend overnight a couple of weeks ago.  My tent in the last photo is the small orange one.  Green one were some interlopers I had to send to their correct tent site.

    Ah. The old $30 Ozark Trail Tent.  I suppose anything that gets them out on the trail is a good thing.

    Not so sure on what you have  though.  Looks a bit like my Copper Spur, but the fly doesn't look exactly right.

    I know what I'm doing and where I'm posting. You are reading my posts and instead of taking them at face value coming up with a bunch of #Kamala2024 fantasies about how smart you are and how dumb everyone else is. 

    You want to talk about taking the bait and looking like a jackass then look in the mirror. 

    It's not my fault you're a fucking dipshit begging for approval on a rival fan's message board. You are a habitual, low self-esteem aggrandizer hanging on to dogshit politics to make yourself feel better.

    I don't need any of that. My life is much more complicated and problematic and I have plenty of actual real-world concerns to bother me without some two-bit fuck dipshit Tech grad like yourself attempting to explain politics to me like the entire two party system isn't just a fucking sham to keep morons like you busy.

    You're an idiot and one that isn't worth my time. You're the type of idiot that as soon as anyone mentions "Joe Rogan" you throw a fucking fit and immediately attempt to engage in some sort of horseshit faux-intellectual identiy-politics fueled bullshit rant about how smart you are yet you're the dumbest motherfucker in the room. 

    Baby Baby, Takes a Little Time, but Somewhere Somehow you have to let this go, or you'll have Scars in Heaven. After all, That's What Love is for

    Tell me you’ve never worked as a roadie and have never shacked up on the road with a Christian pop singer who received Grammy nominations for song and album of the year in the early 90s, while she was having problems with her husband, and it just so happened that she had passed through several towns where a string of arsons and attempted murders took place that involved a rival musician without telling me you did, and where witnesses described the main suspect as a woman in her 30s running around with a man who looked to be 10 years younger than her.

    That kind of experience would have cemented in you the notion that a well-paid law firm can easily shut down any questioning from police and deflect blame elsewhere. 

    I don't mean to dismiss the two man pissing contest over Broseph McBrohiem, but can we go back to this, just for a minute?  Is this some movie reference that I'm missing, or are you telling us you have carnal knowledge of Amy Grant?

    lol. They had a nice conversation about diving safety and DCS (the bends)...then Juliette proceeds to do exactly what one would do to get DCS....and doesn't appear to be in the slightest bit of pain. For our non-diving audience, she should be dead from an embolism or near dead from the pain/shock.

    They'll have it kick in next week I bet.

    MAGA Boomers, aka my MIL, will never know anything about this. Fox News won’t talk about it, so it doesn’t exist.

    Not only are they talking about it, they appear to have picked a side (at least for now).  Indian engineers don't watch FOX all day.
