I'm in DC--its definately hot--we sort of jumped from winter to summer without any real spring. But our building is also old and traps heat. Living on the top floor, it's like a sauna by the end of the day. I have a funny feeling that even if I don't give myself permission, I'm having a slack ass day anyway! And your right, it was ages ago. Thanks for reading!

It's official-- I'm completely unmotivated today. Maybe it's the weather, or my horrible allergies acting up, maybe it's because my boss is out of town, but whatever it is I HAVE NOT ACCOMPLISHED ANYTHING TODAY. It's been "one of those days" from the start. I woke up with an achy head from all the pollen that's drifted into my bedroom. I've been keeping

The previous Spanish government was a perfect democracy. They chose to do what they felt they had to do, the population were upset with them and chose to replace them. Nothing wrong with that. It does not make the new government more democractic, just more representative of what the population currently feel. <br

Personally I think your analysis is a little bit flawed. Thanks for the comments, but it wasn't my analysis--it was NBC Nightly News. I agree with your comments. My intent wasn't to investigate why it happened, but rather, what effect it might have.

The problem is that violence to women ensues because they won't stay in the kitchen where they belong. They just go gallivanting around, being troublesome. Should never have taught them how to read, I tell you. now you are just picking fights with me voodoostation <img src="../images/smiles/bigsmile.g

51% is still a majority, however thin. Take into account the 3% margin to the negative, that would be 48%, right? conversely, 3% to the non-pessimistic would make it even bigger than 51%. Right? Right but the same holds true for the 54% that disapproved...it could be as little as 51% or as high as 57

you won't get your secret crush ha ha! Is that why I haven't gotten my secret crush--well, now that I know that, watch out friends, your inboxes are about to be filled! Mr. Frog: Thanks for actually filling it out, I didn't think anyone would do that. I suppose the more *informati

The new ad campaign by KFC irritates me. Do they really think that if they change the name to "Kitchen Fresh," instead of "Kentucky Fried," consumers are more likely to purchase it? I'm insulted, but I'm not actually a patron of KFC, so I suppose I shouldn't be--the ad isn't actually directed at me. But come o

It now has to be a super majority, just like the Dems in the Senate do when appointing a Justice. Isn't that right girls? why the "girls"--simply because I disagree with you doesn't mean you have the right to belittle me by referring to me as a "girl"--I would never say, Isn't that right boys? I'm mor

Unless it's something bad like a coup, I still don't see anything wrong with applying pressure. You are right that it is not as extreme as a coup, but the guilt trip ( I'm so disappointed that the Spanish government is giving into the terrorist ) is a blantant disregard for the democratic will of t

I'm not a big fan of email forwards in general, but I'm even less of a fan of those silly little forms that require you to fill out a long litany of your favorites: color, salad dressing, tooth paste. Please! I don't care enough about tooth paste or salad dressings to be interested in which one my boss, boyfriend, or friend's cousin's mother's newphew is choosing. I

Reply #19 By: Super Baby - 4/21/2004 5:21:08 PM So if we are upset with a country's choice, even if it is the majority, then we are anti-democracy? One can still support democracy and think that the majority of a nation made a stupid decision. Still, I'll remember this when you criticize a decision supported by the majori
