in my life at the moment. Won’t discuss it.

Have a happy Fourth

and, enough about me.

Check and see if your town has the following resources: Free Windows Excel and Powerpoint classes at the local library….I say thanks to DPL. They’ve got other great resources too.

And yay, only cigar bar patrons and casino gamblers will be able to smoke in Colorado starting tomorow.

Ambivalent about more genetic testing for Colorado’s newborns…in about five years, I figure someone wanting to scare us needlessly about genetic conditions will use the stats to say, “Why have reported incidents of [pick the illness they are now testing for] risen so dramatically in the last five years?”

Because you started all-newborn testing for them in 2006, dim-bulb.

It reminds me of the ad run by Senator Wayne Allard to court seniors/the disabled sometime back…

Paraphrased: Social Security has risen every year since Senator Allard took office.

When confronted with the fact that Social Security has automatic cost of living raises written into it, the Senator’s staffer pulled a Dan Fielding and said : “What’s your point?”
