There should be a reality show following those folks. Make it like the Real World where Reps and Dems have to live in the same house.

I started going through that site.

4. WHAT 'FAKE' INTERPRETER HAS TO SAY

I already said that he is full of shit.

What's the website? Or did it get taken down?

6. IRAQ WAR VET ACCUSED OF STEALING MILITARY IDs

That's pretty messed up.

Is that how that Sandra Bullock movie starts?

8. WHERE TO PREPARE FOR DRONE JOBS

So, you can basically get paid to fly an r/c plane?? Sign me up!

Time for them to start talking about movies no one has seen or really want to see.

I also forgot my morning hot cocoa. Which just totally sucks, since it's fucking freezing outside.

I had a moment a few nights ago. I checked the weather on my phone and was all psyched it was going to be -9 and -11. Then I realized I had left my phone in Fahrenheit.

It's -2F (-17C) with the windchill. Seems awfully cold for this time of year. It doesn't usually get like this until January.

That would be a welcome change. We are in a cold snap. It's been -30 for over a week.

Congratulations!! Moving on up.
