Although a lot of people didn't like his trivial comments, I have been watching 60 Minutes and enjoying his comments since I 'had' to watch 60 Minutes when I was little because my parents were watching it. With most of the original cast now gone, I wonder how much longer the show will last.

Got Ideas?
The White House, Washington
Good afternoon,
When President Obama says that we can't wait to put Americans back to work, he's not just talking about the White House. He's talking about all of us. That "we" is everyone.
The President has a proposal -- the American Jobs Act -- that economists say could put nearly two million Americans back to work. But some in Congress are determined to block that jobs plan, so we're getting started with concrete actions that President Obama can take without waiting on lawmakers to debate legislation or pass a bill.
We are looking at everything that the government can do, and we know that some of the best ideas are going to come from people like you.
If you have an idea for something President Obama can do without the help of Congress, or know of a program in your community that needs to go nationwide, I want to hear from you.

President Obama believes that creating jobs and growing the economy are national goals, ones we all share as Americans.
And as the Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, I want to make sure that the President hears about plenty of proposals to help accomplish those goals.
For the past few weeks, I've been leading a series of meetings here at the White House to come up with steps we can take right now to create more jobs -- without Congress.
That's why President Obama has signed orders to streamline research grants for entrepreneurs, help families refinance their mortgages, and make it easier for graduates to repay their student loans.
These are all actions that couldn't wait.
Now we're looking for more ideas just like these, concrete steps we can take right away to put people back to work and help make communities stronger.
Take a minute to share your idea:

I'm really looking forward to hearing what you have to say.
Thanks,
Nancy-Ann DeParle

BEEEEEauuty-fulll DAY!
ZOMG! this is my favorite kind of day, aside from the perfect Ferris Bueller summer-type day. I"m wearing my red rain coat and my purple corduroy pants, and my hair is doing the right things, and it's dark and rainy! Either the world changes on days like this, or it's me. Parsimony suggests the latter. If I was working downtown today I would SO go to Shalom Deli on Wells for lunch and get a way-overpriced 1/2 corned beef and swiss toasted on rye sandwich with matzo ball soup and a can of Pepsi. Alas, I'm not. But it's okay because I had waffles and Snickers for breakfast!!!! And I'm going to make more coffee! Happy happy boing boing boing.
I hope you are having a great day too! Enjoy the coziness of the weather especially if indoors. And notice how people seem nicer when they're all bundled up.

BLURGH!
I can NOT NOT NOT make myself work on my lit. review, which is apparently "All Wrong!" anyway today. I will try now...I just keep staring at it.
the sound of....
SILENCE!!!!
SILENCE SILENCE SILENCE!!!
:) but seriously, the only thing making noise right now is my hard drive (need to fix that), and my typing. I love it! Home Alone XVIII Starring me. YAY!

I need to look into this
I thought most apartments had balconies. Is this not the case? I think a balcony is necessary.
