I'm a little bummed today, as this was supposed to be the day I got my final implants from the Dentist, but this has been postponed. Apparently the lab is a little overwhelmed by all the work that's flooded in, so I got a call pushing things back. It's just a two-week setback, but I was so ready to be done with these clunky temporary teeth after well over six months that I was counting the hours to today's appointment. I'll just have to deal with this, but if there turns out to be another delay I'm going to track someone down and give them a gumming they'll never forget.

It has been time to kill the penny for a very long time. They should kill paper one dollar bills at the same time. Doing both at the same time is actually useful, the penny slot in cash drawers can be swapped to be for dollar coins. It is such as win the fact it hasn't happened yet is barely short of being criminal...

↑↑↑ As long as we have asinine shit like the above ↑↑↑, we will have the Penny forever.
As someone who has lived in Illinois since 1974 (minus my time in the USAF) let me say, Dennis Hastert is an ass and that reasoning is complete hogwash.

He's much worse than an ass, which is why his ass was sent to prison.
