misc.
Work is very, very busy.
United Airlines announced they are taking 600 unionized "furloughed" flight attendants back on the payroll. Were they part of the unemployment rate when they were on "furlough"?
This thing about Sistani makes me sick. How in the hell does the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA not have a plan to give a free Iraq direct elections, especially when the best-known leader of the religious majority has been calling for direct elections for months (with yours truly)? How long do they think people will listen to "there is no voter registration system, no electorate system, no blah blah blah" without people thinking "well, give them one". Its been something like 4 months with nary a word about how they will give Iraq a voter registration and electorate system. Throw me a bone and at least announce what they are doing to provide one. (I note that a voter registration/national ID system would also be useful for security purposes in putting all adults into a current database).
Don't know about murder rates so far this year, but I have not seen a single one in the Chicago press in weeks (though the police did kill someone in the first few days). The LA area got off to a violent start, and it seems like the Washington post "local" section has bodies every time they run the "crime and justice" portion.
Anyone following Judge Wolin and the asbestos wars (he handles 5 bankruptcies in the area)? I read that he was having ex-parte lunches and dinners with very well known asbestos plaintiff's lawyers, among other things. It's hard imagining how he will justify not recusing himself.
Y'all been fighting bout something? Sheesh, I step away for a week or two and next thing ya know you people are a bunch of naked children eating each other. Club don't go, please.
Hell(blessed is the agitator, for he shall inherit ___?)-oh!
