...so could you lend us 25 Billion? It'd really help us out. Of course if we'd spent our money on research into finding a better gas efficient car maybe the American public would be buying our cars instead of those Japanese ones. Also, sorry about killing the electric car, we're just owned by big Oil.
Not that I'm frustrated by the bailout... (haha)... though I have seen some great skits. There is a Pets.com one (the Pets.com mascot, my favorite, is begging for 25 Billion so he can restart the company with a huge Superbowl commercial starring Gisele) and the SNL one where they talk about how the Cadillac lights on fire everytime they try and start it. You should check it out!
Mostly I am just hanging out, currently I am watching a Charlie Brown Christmas, which is just so cute! This should be required watching for all children. It's one of my favorite specials of all time (Garfield's Halloween is up there too). Of course there is always 'Little Drummer Boy' and 'Jack Frost', my favorite Christmas movie is still It's A Wonderful Life, which I think is uplifting.
Merry almost Christmas - I hope you are all getting in the 'mood', and if not, drink a peppermint hot cocoa, it's sure to make you feel Christmasy! (or have it snow where you live, though that's probably not happening here...)

Peace, all during this blessed season!
(p.s. Ten, it's midnight your time-- are you up for chatting now? :))

It's pretty interesting about the bail out - now the congress said NO WAY ... and the prez is going to get them the moola - WHAT'S up with that. Of course I think they set a precidence with the bailing out of AIG etc. and Chrysler YEARS ago.
I have written the Pres as I figure my liberal senators and reps with vote FOR it. But I'm not too sure about Inslee?
I think the cocoa thing is a good idea - I'll just have my herbal tea though. Love Mom
