I thought Kay Hagan was one of ours.

I already don't get overtime. But--solidarity brothers. Let's hack her.



If farmers and truckers block roads when they go on strike, what would IT people do??

The joy of Congressional acronyms:

Why do they do this?  Also I didn't know that the PATRIOT Act only wanted to 'Obstruct' not 'Stop' terrorism

I particularly like the anti-Obamacare REPEAL (Revoke Excessive Policies that Encroach on American Liberties) Act and the, probably 1990s, FRIENDSHIP Act (For Reform In Emerging New Democracies and Support and Help for Improved Partnership with Russia, Ukraine, and Other New Independent States).

Interesting.

So, I went to Bikram Yoga this morning (you do yoga in a room that's like 40ºC/ 105ºF; sweaty stuff). I'm not big into yoga, but once in a while my wife drags me out. I don't mind too much, it's good to get some stretches in and the room is normally mostly full of fairly shapely women in very skimpy clothing.

This time, I was right behind a tall Asian lady. She wasn't unattractive, and she was really quite good; a regular yoga star. I mean, I was mostly focused on my own stuff and trying not to fall over, but if once in a while you have to look somewhere and someone's lightly clothed crotch is going to be splayed out a few feet from your face you'd rather it be someone you think is attractive, right? Right. You notice this stuff.

We're headed back from class and our friend (our realtor, as it happens, and rather pretty too) tells us something happened in the showers. The ladies shower (like the men's) has three stalls. One is wheelchair friendly; it's slightly bigger and has both a fixed overhead shower head and a hand held one.

So our friend is in the wheelchair friendly stall doing her thing, when the Asian lady I was behind pulls the curtain back. She gestures at the hand held shower head and says "do you mind if I use that?"

Before my friend can say anything, Ms. Yoga Star is in the stall with, lathering up. She accidentally knocks one of the fixtures down, and the two have to scramble to reattach it. They're in rather close proximity. My friend has to reach across the other girl to reach the soap.

Awkward.

Then, to top it off, Ms. Yoga Star starts shaving her pubic hair. Right there, less than half a foot away.

My friend is rather incredulous as she recounts the experience.

All I can say (having quickly checked that I'm outside of punching distance from my wife) is "I think I saw a movie like that once."

If any of you losers have noticed that my formatting has suffered recently, I have switched most of of my interwebs use to the iPad. The on screen keyboard sucks.

What do they do to warrant this tradition?

Playing their nigger fuck music loud enough to shake my windows.

It also allows the cops to search the house for weed, and thus hopefully net them some nice prison terms.
