1: Good afternoon all, so did anyone watch the dictator in chief last night? He flat out said it.

i missed it. listed to some coverage on NPR this morning.
he raised the fed emp min wage!! to over $10!
That is more than i make hourly!
raise it across the board. originally a finance major in college i remember studying at great lengths the debate over min wage, and its effects of various markets and price indexes.
While it is not as simple or immediate at raise wages raise prices, but it will balance out, and offers up to a 5 year reprieve for many americans while the cost of living is inflated gradually over half a decade before we even out. 5 years may be enough time to take on the recession.
Fiscal responsibility should be a required course in every middle and high school.
How can we keep the countrys youth from accumulating debt? educate them BEFORE they are offered credit cards and school loans.

we tried starting Dr. Who, watched the first couple episodes. Its alright, i honestly dont see the appeal. I may give it another go, it was decent, but 80+ episodes is a marathon i may indefinitely avoid.
What in the heck is a sonic screwdriver.......... it does.....everything?

Woo hoo! I have water, I've showered, and all of my dishes are now clean! Okay, it's kind of sad when these things feel like a great accomplishment. I guess this is a good lesson in remembering to pay my bills. . .

I've got some reading to do--both here and for my graduate seminar tomorrow. . .

It was time for new cotton in the R91 already, so I took pictures of my BEAUTIFUL vertical chimney micro build...

First I dry burned and cleaned it up a bit

Boardo--I'm very sorry to hear what's happening. You're in my thoughts and I'm sending positive vibes from the Caribbean!

LD--I think Doctor Who is one of those things that people either love or hate. I love it. In fact, I like it so much that I spent last summer as a scholar-in-residence at NYU doing research for an article on the representation of gender and sexuality in Doctor Who. Even if I didn't have a scholarly interest in it, I think the writing is especially clever. (I think my first avatar on ECF was The Tardis, but I not totally sure.)

One of things that I generally LOVE about ECF is that discussions of politics don't come up much. Frankly, I'm a bit of a political junkie, and I'm happy to stay away from it here. That said, I'm with Uncle on this one. As far as the executive orders are concerned--every president from both parties has used them extensively to advance their agendas.
