As a matter of fact, all of this crap is keeping me from getting to work. I have to get into Arlington, and every fvcking way in is closed except Metro with a four hour wait. But no, it's not just the traffic. It's the radio. TOP had me ready to put my head through the windshield. Especially the man on the street interviews. |

Today is the day when couples all over America are making love again and shout ‘Yes we can’ as they climax. (hattip to the HuffPo) Let's see, maybe I can convince my wife to bring this trend to Europe, too. |

No reason to go to work. The Leesburg airport is shutdown - security. 35 miles from DC and they shut down the airport - knuckleheads! |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

Identifying narcissists isn't difficult. Just look for the person who is constantly fishing for compliments and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism. We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. | |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

It's taking him some time to check on this with plays. Either he found her and the memo, or he can't find her ................. |
