I thought the Russians were the potato winners. Snow, cold, some sort of weird Russian nesting dolls, potatoes then.... Vodka.

Thanks to all the Putin, I push Russia positively whenever I can. It takes a lot of cunning to turn potatoes into endless entertainment and I believe the Irish just tried to eat them. Etc.

NO OFFENSE to anyone whose ancestors were part of the potato famine, and etc. :)

These are the facts. They receive no tax dollars and have to meet a retirement funding requirement that no other organization in America has to pay up front. Without eBay and Amazon they'd likely be bankrupt by now.
It's unfortunate that the private sector in the US doesn't give a damn about workers anymore...
Used to be if you went to work for a company, did your job well, and took care of business, you were rewarded, and eventually retired.
Now it's quite different. Everyone is disposable, and profits are everything.

Strangely, this becomes more obvious when we see a government sector still grinding by the old rules, despite an apparent lack of concern for doing the job well...

We could shop for our Mel. She's itching for a shiny.
Went to change batteries before I go... two with freaking nicks :-x... they live in a battery case ?!?!?!? And guess what I did NOT order. Yep, the better battery wraps that were recommended. Tonight if there’s lightning at your house, it’s just me rewrapping with these creasey, thick wraps I DO have :(

I found them slightly compelling, but I was like, 2.

But, you misread my post! I was talking about all the DREADFUL stuff Russians had to endure before coming up with Vodka! I don't much care for tea, silver samovars or whatever weird objects they used to keep their tea "hot" in their snow caves and etc., I'm merely pointing out that Russia did a great job of coming out of their "sinkhole of suck" with vodka, LOL.
