Whiplash

Gabrielle Giffords returned to the House floor to cast her vote to raise the debt ceiling. Yay!

The Congress is still a bunch of childish, whiny gits. Yes, yes, they finally reached an agreement everyone hates. So fucking what? Nobody congratulates me when I finally get off my ass and complete the tasks for which I'm responsible, months later than I was supposed to. Boo!

Boogie the Giant Schnauzer has been in fine form since his return from Doggie Purgatory, otherwise known as the kennel. Go, Boogie, go! Yay!

It's not my job to do your job. Unless, of course, you want to give me a proportionate percentage of your salary for doing so. Then I'll put it in queue. Otherwise? Get off your ass and complete your own tasks. Like Congress! Boo!

I have awesome, awesome friends. Who are awesome. Yay!

How come when a Muslim fundamentalist commits a terrorist act, it's because THEY'RE MUSLIM, YOU KNOW. But when a Christian fundamentalist commits a terrorist act, it's because THEY'RE NOT REALLY CHRISTIAN. When in fact, both acts were committed by extremists. America, thy name is Hypocrisy. Boo!

I'm sure the last one was rhetorical, but it's because of the stories we tell ourselves.

Actually, it's not rhetorical. Which is why it's a "BOO."

late in the Holy Roman, when the legislative body (call it a councile of nobles) got to gether, they had a certain amount of time to complete thier job for that year. If they did not, they went on bread and water until they did. I personally subscribe to literal decimation to encourge them.

Decimation. That is AWESOME.

Decimation old Roman trick for encouragement.

That last one is the "boo" that really gets me. How blind can people be to their own behavior? :(

All the "yay"s I heartily cheer. :)
