Have a blast this7/4th weekend. Count your blessings, forget your troubles. and be safe.(4th of July is the deadliest day on the road, don't drink and/or text while driving) ~ Them old US Blues! ~

The State of Vermont is trying to get 25% off the electric bills of people w/incomes below the poverty guideline. Their lawyer said for them, in a public hearing, mind you, that the 'Lectric Co. thinks all people in poverty smoke cigarettes and they will just use that savings to buy more cigarettes. Of course they fell all over themselves to deny that represented their opinions or the opinions of their employees. (In the news after) All this in the wake of a different utility in the business who shut off the 'lectric to an elderly woman on oxygen. Her equipment failed and she died. Maybe it happens every day in Chicago but we like to think that we don't do that around here. We'd love to think. (Sigh.......)

...the subject. Please? Really, we need to get on a new tack, sailing into our 4th of July weekend. ~ Can you use ~

...Blago was like the uber-corrupt one -- he shook down children's hospitals and such. He and his wife were very foul-mouthed to boot.
