And There Was Much Rejoicing Throughout The Land
The internet tells me there will be a new short Arrested Development TV series and a movie.
Keep Doing What You're Doing
It doesn't matter what the consequences are. They know it's the right thing to do even though it's nuts.
Mr Cameron dismissed calls for "a few billions" of extra spending - suggesting it would be a dangerous gamble to "deviate" from the government's tight deficit-reduction plans, as the Conservatives gathered in Manchester for their annual conference.
The Money, You Give It
I'm sure we'll have no trouble of hitting the modest goal of 1000 donors for Elizabeth Warren in the coming months.

Wish I'd said this
"Money is like manure: Spread around, it helps things grow. Piled up in one place, it just stinks."

Where The Money Is
I wouldn't be surprised to find that there's a lot of fraud in our various welfare-y programs. I imagine plenty of unemployment benefits recipients might be getting a bit of unreported money under the table, that many food stamp and medicaid recipients might have fudged a bit in reporting their assets. But the point is that if you're making the effort to, say, defraud the school lunch program so your kid can have a crap free lunch every day, you're probably pretty fucking poor regardless. And, you know, the giant cost to government is...a crap free lunch per day.
Poopp Dogg And The Enema Man
The twosome have a piece in Fred Hiatt's crayon scribble page which lacks the word 'jobs.'
Because they don't care about anything except impoverishing old people not named Alan Simpson.

Assholes
I don't know anything about this situation other than what's in the article, but regarding this:
This tells me that her "base" salary in 2007 was $315,000. Wondering if she's getting those "financial incentives tied to performance" despite everything going to hell?
Ewers declined to speak about specifics of the four separate union contracts, but she pointed out that Kimmel management had taken $1.5 million in salary reductions recently, and that “one has to look at the Philadelphia Orchestra Association in bankruptcy and realize that [a new contract] must be a bigger piece of the puzzle.”
The orchestra owes the Kimmel $1.4 million in back rent, according to Ewers, creating a $450,000 deficit for the Kimmel Center in fiscal year 2011.
She said: “We’re not asking anyone to make sacrifices that we have not already made ourselves.”

The Cars, You Can Share Them
A quality affordable car sharing program really is the way to go in densely populated urban areas. For anyone who doesn't need a car for a daily commute, it is the way to fill the gap, for those needs between cab ride and daily rental. Cars are useful things, they aren't going anywhere, but not everyone actually needs to own one. Also, too, they take up a lot of space.
And What's Kinsley's Typical Restaurant Bill?
I have no idea and don't care, but what the hell is wrong with these people?
