    Friends of my parents, both smokers, had this. One died last year. Made it to 87 but only because he was rich. Rough last few years. His wife is doing better but still shaky.

    I had a similar dream too, but solved the aging problem by not expecting to live past 30. Here I am now pushing 60 and wondering wtf.

    Communist totalitarianism is wonderful and good and as American as apple pie as long as it's corporations doing it not governments.

    God's Lube

    Somewhere, over the gas station. By the way, I really don't like the name LUBE IT USA anyway. First of all, lube **what**, exactly? That's kind of personal, isn't it? Or does it mean lube **everything**? That'd be terrible! Nothing would get done, everything and everyone would just be sliding all over the place and falling down and slipping everywhere. Also, it's very demanding, LUBE IT, USA! RIGHT NOW! AND THAT'S AN ORDER! I don't like being told what to do by my lube.

    Comcast WTF

    Comcast made it through the whole icepocalypse, then died sometime last night after the ice started finally melting. I logged in this morning from my phone and it said it'd be repaired by 1pm. Still out now 9:30PM. Took off work today because no internet, tomorrow not sure if I should try to limp along on tethered mobile or risk driving to a coffee shop or the library (if it is open). Any idea what is up? My power (EWEB) has been just fine in SE, just 2-4 second long glitches every couple hours. Why did Comcast choose to take a dump right at the end of this?

    Paul Holvey recall petition gatherers lying

    Just had a Paul Holvey recall petitioner come by. They said that it was a petition to help grocery workers recover unpaid back wages. Went thru a whole spiel about that. Then I looked at the petition, it was the Paul Holvey recall petition. Sleazy tactics say a lot about a cause. If you have to lie about it, it's probably not a good cause. I have seen this pattern before with other petition gatherers in other cities. Hard no.
