They're also fighting the PRISM set-up now, the one that allows the NSA to collect and store all your communications data. A D.C. Federal District Judge filed a restraining order against PRISM, and although its implementation will probably take years it's a step in the right direction.

Thought "they" are demanding the collectors of the info (phone companies, et cetera) store the information rather than NSA. Big deal. Still collecting ain't "they"???

Yeah, this is only a temporary restraining order on the NSA, and it would probably be as ineffective as any other RO. I don't believe it addresses the phone companies, ISPs, etc. at all, and it wouldn't take much for the NSA to "convince" them to make the records available to them.

Whatta mess! :mad:

Dropped off Horse treats and also cookies for the humans to a few people this morning and picked up some sandwich meats as they are calling for an ice storm and that could result in power outages. My sister came to visit for a while and now I'm catching up with you guys and then I really need to do some house work. Crappy day out there so think I'll just stay in for the rest of the day.

There are a few chipmunks in the yard that are just driving the dogs bananas so the barking is getting to me...... Love my dogs but nothing like a sassy chipmunk to make them forget all about behaving themselves.

I always say I'll do housecleaning on the bad weather days when I'm stuck indoors . . . and then, don't...

Miss the chipmunks living in my woodpile. After I moved it away from the house and closer to the shed, he had left and the rats move in. Great just Great. Since I'm no longer living at the vineyard and heating home with the woodstove, no more woodpile and no more chipmunks or . . . rats...

Did someone say, "Friday!"? Looking forward to a relaxing weekend...
 
The past three Christmases I have taken the wife to Bon Worth's ladies store and turned her loose. I must admit she does very well as she got several mix and match outfits for less than $100.00.

For me, just give a an Amazon gift card or ITunes and turn me loose.

I hope you had a good lunch Jillie, I love going for lunch and if it is with one of my children, that makes it so much better!
 
UPDATE:
YAAHOOOO!!! Finally Finished!!!


I have officially completed my Obummercare application!!!

Last night while tossing and turning I came up with the brilliant idea of calling in today and having them delete my application and start over, having them enter the info on their end...

On hold for an hour and a half this afternoon, but when I finally got the helpful young lady on the other end. I impressed upon her that we would be resolving this application snafu right now as I am at the end of my rope in dealing with it, she agreed that would be the best move. She completed the application over, and 15 minutes later..it's a done deal.

This only took two weeks and 6 phone calls where everyone was at a loss as to how to resolve the error message problem.

Good luck with that Jilly, my Mum always acted as though I was an immaculate conception, that didn't go well for her credibility.

Sorry your lunch didn't eventuate, coffees and chats seems more par for the course with people these days. Too busy to live.

I'll be cooking up little puddings today. Brewed up the makings yesterday and they've been left in the saucepan to soak up the ginger wine and 'mature' overnight. They're experimental so I'll let you know how that turns out.... or not. If they're as good as the ingredients smell they'll be 'knockouts'.
 
I've made 6 of 'em Jilly and they're fantastic! (Murdered one to autopsy it for taste and texture.)
I'll post a pic of the survivors later if I get round to it. You're more than welcome here Jilly, I'll dust a spare chair.

Yayyyyy!!! Frustration over so relax today!

Raining to beat hell here and supposed to turn to freezing rain. Hoping the power stays on but prepared if it does go out. I really need to clean today - love the fireplace but it makes everything dusty, so will spruce the place up a bit and stay home!
 
60+ degrees here today, melted all the snow. Now we have a lake of mud outside, the streets are flooded and the porch-hangers across the street are out in their wife-beaters taking long drags on their ciggies.

Spring has returned to Wilkes Barre. :rolleyes:
 
Just had a lovely chat to my youngest daughter, she is excited as she gets her new car tomorrow and DB will be happy it's a Toyota Corolla {black} her last car was written off due to someone running into the rear of her car, her hire car was a Corolla and won her over.
A hot day here 32c {89.6f}, Xmas day will be cooler thank goodness
