is the equivalent of Samurai offering to fall on the sword. You do it when you think you've dishonored the boss, the job, yourself, etc. You really hope they'll stop you from going through with it. If they do, it means they are not so very displeased with your performance. But if they don't stop you, you gotta go ahead and slit your belly. (Or they may be really nice and agree to lop off your head.) I guess it's one way if finding out just how badly you've screwed up.

They would be calling for his resignation, impeachment for sure.sm
The mayor and governor should have evacuated the people from the nursing homes since they knew that the levees were not stable enough to weather a category 4 hurricaine. The federal government should have acted to protect NO citizens as well. This is too sad and we shouldn't allow this to be brushed under the rug.

Peace offering up above.

We all love our country. Let's focus on that. No matter who wins, there is a lot of work to be done.

G'night.

Lots of websites offering bankruptices for $599

My son-in-law emailed me this, and this is what I sent him in response:

Nuttin' made in the USA any more

(except for declarations of war).

Give it back to China so they can keep

sending us stuff to sell real cheap.

"Leaden" our kids and poison our pets,

and the rich get richer with no regrets!

I keep seeing websites offering bankruptices for $599. With no health insurance, mounting medical bills, a car repossession, dwindling income and a fatal disease, that may wind up being my way of "keeping it" in America. My preference would be to buy a $600 American-made car, maybe something like a 1983 Ford Escort, anything to get me from Point A to Point B safely.

Thanks, Mr. Bush.

I read that he is not offering McCain any positions -
I read that he was just talking to him about how they could best handle senatorial stuff - that he would not be offering him a position anywhere.
