Okay, so after my last entry about my shitty day, I read this, and it made me laugh like a hyena on speed.

And it was funny because I've had clients like that too.

What are the three best books you have ever read and what are the three worst? What made them so good or bad?

Best:
Gone with the Wind, Margaret Mitchell
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Douglas Adams
The Stranger, Albert Camus
Worse: I would have to say the Meyer "Twilight" books, but it's my own damned fault for reading them.

Also: can someone explain the snuggie to me? Whatever happened to bathrobes? I'm serious. Speaking of the person who has everyting, our brookstone catalog arrived today, and it had this fuzzy, fancy snuggie on the front cover. And I'm like, "Brookstone, is selling snuggies???"

I don't think I would consider it. The only person I maybe might consider it for is my brother or sister, but I would have a hard time letting go of a baby I carried for nine months, and I think the relationship issues that followed would be difficult, unless I could live next door!If your best friend asked you OR your partner to help you conceive a child, would you consider it? How do you think it would affect your friendship and your relationship?

Health insurance reform is finally headed to the full Congress, and insurance company lobbyists on Capitol Hill are working overtime to kill it. Calling is quick and easy, but effective -- your voice has tremendous power at this critical moment.

Obama, October 15 at a DNC fundraiser in San Francisco:
"What I reject is when some folks say we should go back to the past policies when it was those very same policies that got us into this mess in the first place. (Applause.)
Another way of putting it is when, you know, I'm busy and Nancy's busy with our mop cleaning up somebody else's mess --- we don't want somebody sitting back saying, you're not holding the mop the right way. (Applause.) Why don't you grab a mop, why don't you help clean up. (Applause.) You're not mopping fast enough. (Laughter.) That's a socialist mop. (Laughter and applause.) Grab a mop -- let's get to work."
Go Obama!!!

Dear Senator:
I was very disappointed about your remarks, reported in the Las Vegas Sun, made yesterday at the Senate committee debate Tuesday.
I am strongly in favor of the public option, and in fact would support a full-on public system, much like we see in Canada or in European countries. I'm trying to be realistic, though. I realize that the big insurance companies and big pharma have too much money and will fight tooth and nail against these changes. This is why we have representatives, like you, to protect us from moneyed interests and their influence on legislation.
The majority of Nevadans support the public option (source: http://www.dailykos.com/statepoll/2009/9/2/NV/357). Whom exactly, are you representing?
Sincerely,
Gina Money

I don't remember much about my interests in grammar school, except I've always loathed gym and did enjoy reading, the library and science. By the time I was in high school, the love of science was pretty much bled out of me, I didn't like math and foolishly took as little as I needed to graduate. I gravitated towards music, and dedicated all my time to it. I think with a little more guidance I could have done well in math and science; I don't expect Don to be a scientist or mathematician, but I hope he'll go farther than I did in those subjects.

I think we should skip the touch screen and go straight to a Star Trek inspired voice interface.How could touch-screen technology enhance the way you currently use your PC? How could it make things worse?

Having trouble getting motivated this afternoon. I'm week two of the big fall clean, I'm hoping to be done by Friday. I'm especially worried about having the house in order by the time I have my surgery, don't want anyone having to wade through my clutter while I'm recuperating.
What do you guys do to get motivated?
