Hmmm...a moment of peace.

Yassss, nothing is happening for the moment. I can dig it.

This morning on the way here I heard the evil squirrels chirping that bubbly sounding chirp that signifies evil intentions. They were behind and above me, and I could almost feel the tiny wafts of their fetid breath hitting the raised hairs on the back of my neck. I made it through unscathed, but tomorrow, I may have to call upon the corvids to watch my back.

I note that the administration, particularly the VP, is further beneath contempt than even I thought they were. Here's an example:

One could argue that the NE needed power, but how much more did they need it than hospitals in the affected area? This reeks, as do many things surrounding the "response" to the predicted hurricane.
