I have been quoted twice in papers. The one who quoted me accurately was the college paper. Funny that.
VforV, you got the message from TRC right? Try to log in every 30 minutes. All scheduled time will be paid (not sure what they're gonna do about the Incentive people but I suppose a time-stamped mail to one's mentor would prove intent to work extra hours.)
and damn but I'm glad SallhH finally got moving. I am a big fan of the Run Away theory although my nemesis is tornadoes rather than fire. Better to go and not to have needed to than...well...y'know.

ina, thursday
Time for a bowl of Wheaties and 8 hours of sleep...
Do you what time it is?
Why, it is time for champagne.
From reporter Christine Capecchi's bio:
Capecchi is a former reporter at the Catholic Spirit in St. Paul, where she advised the youth supplement Speak Up! She has been published in such papers as the New York Times, the Chicago Tribune and the St. Paul Pioneer Press. She is the author of the monthly column "Twenty Something," which appears in 30 Catholic papers across the country.
This person is writing political stories for the NY Times because exactly why???
Is that a 'before/after ' makeover photo in the MI ??
Glorious day here. Gotta go chase some leaves around the back yard.
Time for a bowl of Wheaties and 8 hours of sleep...
These are wise words.
.
Who could have anticipated that a newspaper that employed such an ace journalist as Judith Miller could be hoodwinked in such a fashion?
Two reasons for even glancing at the NYT:
--Krug
--Rich
That's about it.
Only wet leaves here.
It's just too early. The worst part is there aren't that many stations that play anything worth listening to. I'm not usually in the car long enough to listen to NPR. That station is perfect for sort trips. Old rock and roll and sappy love songs. On Sat. night they have this person Delilah who takes calls from people with really boring stories about their great loves. They're so bad they're funny.
I suppose I could just turn it off but then I have to listen to the engine noises and that always freaks me out.
May I just say that I absolutely positively do not want Bill Richardson as Secy of State?
I do like his Mr Spock in the Evil Alternate Universe beard.
However, he has been more or less dead to me since the campaign interview where he said, twice, that gay people probably chose to be that way.
jdw I agree that Sheila Bair would make a great sec. of treasury.
Obama needs to get rid of Paulson on day 1.
Plus I think I did a project for her once (long time ago.)
Wheaties....hmmmm.
Been years since I've had 'em.
About Sheila Bair from below:
she'd be a great add to the admin, imo.
Yep, I agree. I may go write something to the campaign about it.
XAn -- no, I didn't! I sent an e-mail to help as soon as I realized I was having a serious problem.

Heh, exterminator guy who came to check out my mole infestation just now admired the Obama sign on my car. He said his wife volunteered on the campaign also. I gave him one of my leftover posters and he said he would hide it from his boss, who's a bit nervous.

V4V, apparently they have the whole system down--including Spark so that won't work either-- trying to fix what's been causing the dead air problem all week. The SO was scheduled on at the same time you were so he's checking the boards for updates.
Of course everybody wrote TRC at once so they can't get responses out fast enough; plus everybody will be trying to log in on the hour and 1/2 hour...could be an interesting day.
I don't start till noon CST so I can be relaxed about it.

ronin | 11.15.08 - 11:29 am
She actually has a website I think, Delilah.com. Very religious and into missionary stuff but she has a great voice and an odd sense of humor I kind of like. I don't listen to NPR because most of my trips fall into the five minutes or less range. It's not enough time to follow what's going on. I can listen when I go to the dentist though, that's a long trip, so there's that.
Maybe the Times didn't know anybody else in St. Paul.
Wheaties....hmmmm.

Nasty fire breaks out near LA
----
More California residents were ordered from their homes Saturday as a wind-driven wildfire spread westward to Interstate 5 from the Los Angeles area, authorities said.
A helicopter drops water on on the Sayre fire early Saturday in Los Angeles County, California.
Deputy Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore said residents in the Granada Hills and Puerto Ranch area, where there are narrow streets and hilly terrain, must leave their homes.
"This fire is moving so quickly that they can't wait," Moore warned. "Don't wait until you see open flames."

This is separate from the Tea fire in Santa Barbara.

Heckuva job, FDIC.
Got a letter from T. Rowe Price saying that they've signed up for deposit protection for their commercial paper money market. Too late. I moved most of that to an actual bank that offered a higher yield and FDIC insurance.
And if I move it back, I don't get the insurance protection. It only applies to funds put in before September 19.
So there was a run of redemptions. And under these rules, they ain't ever coming back.
Has anyone heard from Sallyh this morning?
Sallyh is currently in an undisclosed location, having evacuated about a half hour ago.
She will get back to us.

Don't misunderstand, I love the show even though I think Delilah is a little too "Jesus loves you". And maybe I should say the stories are anti-climatic. They build up to this big point, some person going on and on about their lost love and then -- nothing. You're expecting the punchline to be how they rediscovered each other but they don't. Maybe it's just the ones I catch. I have heard some moving ones on rare occassions. Again, I spend very little time in the car so it's very hit or miss.
I'd planned to save my extra hours until tomorrow (need to more for the lowest tier; I'm pretty lazy), but maybe I'll do them today since it appears I won't be tired at 3.
Virginia, no, I'm working
Latest msg is that those who were scheduled to work can clock the hours (under 1157.11) but those who were going for extras this morning for the incentive cannot.
I got my time up to 31 (was scheduled for 28, plus mentor meeting etc) on Thursday, so I should be good to go. You saw there's another incentive, same terms, for next week too right?
I don't think trademark dave and Billy B. liked very much to hear the completely true story of simels at the Farm in Frisco in the 60's. I wonder why.
And simels said here, 45 years later, that the food wasn't good. That is proof that he didn't smoke any mary jane. He was the jerk. Phoebe, after she got over her trauma, said he looked like a shaved Charlie Manson. Phoebe said she would recognize those eyes anywhere.
But he did have a thing about mashed potatoes and girls' boobs and thinking having his mother's credit card was some kind of big deal.
Oh, no....
Delilah is a little too "Jesus loves you".
That does wear on you after all.
after AWHILE, excuse me.
We are seeing the birth pangs of a new Middle East....said Condi

Well, criminy, that makes sense. I they told ya it was propaganda ya wouldn't listen to em.
Well, if you interview a real Everyman, then you have to get out the hand sanitizer, and maybe wear one of those anti-germ masks over your mouth while you talk to him, because you don't know where he's been. I mean really, such a hassle.
