The Friday Thread

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

I highly recommend it. Our contact with humanity is minimal and swift, and it's not the same people everyday. Sadly, with our families, drama abounds.

I've had a work break since May, when I fractured a lumbar vertebra. Not really a vacation. Bonded with my puppy and taught him all kinds of stuff, as long as I could do it sitting in a chair or leaning on my cane.

The days of the week are irrelevant to me.

Ouch, sorry to hear that! Glad about the puppy though :-)

T'werent me...I don't wear hats or caps. I let my curly locks sail in the breeze.

If I could grow a bunch of hair like that, I'd let it blow in the breeze, too. In fact, they would probably call me "the breeze," and even write a song about me. :D

Well, if JTA finds a gold or diamond mine on a Friday, such as this, his wishes will come true. Meanwhile, I will commence to get my Friday on. Also, sorry to hear that k9nanny is apparently injured. Hope things will get better for you in that regard. The reason I even wrote this is about your last statement....."the days of the week are irrelevant to me." I pretty much feel the same except on two of them I don't have to get up early. But here it is; your words reminded me of the general philosophy of the GOP. The days of the weak are irrelevant to me. Happy Friday folks. Be irrelevant; or not. 8-)

Depending on where you work/what you do, you potentially have several Fridays/Saturdays in a row coming back thanks to Labor Day, so fret not.

I think if it weren't for weekends, nobody would ever get anything done. Think how many times you hear at work, "I'll get it to you by Friday," or "We'll start that on Monday." It provides a regular break in routine that creates natural (or is that "natcheral" Mr.B?) deadlines and starting points. But in addition to that, weekends are fun.

Yeah, but I still have to take at least one of those to fight weeds and bushes, burn the victims, and celebrate my victory with the ritual searing on open fire of a dead pig and consuming same, which some call a sin. Now and again this slash / burn / sin routine sort of makes me feel guilty, but not enough to stop.
