I laid an egg in my previous boss' office (them prenatal vitamins make stinky gas) when he called me while I was on maternity leave to come by during the 3 hour window between breast feedings and still didn't have my paycheck ready. I hope he liked it.That would have been funny for Franken to leave his butt flakes all over the White House.
Have you ever read Fame and Love in New York by Ed Sanders (of The Fugs)? It included neighborhood designations like HoHo (Hoboken, NJ) and YoHo (Yonkers, NY). The ex lives in the Yonkers Riviera, and from the first time I visited him there I called it YoHo. A few years later, it started appearing on billboards for real estate (mostly luxury rentals).
I don't see this in quite the same way as most others seem to. It looked very much like an exercise in dominance -- the Great and Wonderful Emperor Orange summoned his court, because it would demean the ruler to come to them. Loading our Senators on buses to be taken to a jury-rigged SCIF is supposed to be a sign to us peasants that our "statesmen" are nothing more than servants to the One True King. Pretending that this is simply another sign of incompetence or bizarre showmanship will allow the trumpers to make another, slightly more unreasonable, demand in the future. And then another. This was meant as an insult and a show of dominance, nothing more nor less. I am going to be asking my Senators to refrain from bowing down before President Onatechnicality in the future, before he is busing them to an undisclosed location from which they may not emerge.
Another book I truly love is The Island at the Center of the World by Russell Shorto. It's mostly about Manhattan, where I live (on what was once part of Peter Stuyvesant's Bouwerie in the east village), but covers a vast amount of New Amsterdam history. The ex lived first on Van der Donck Street and this was the book that taught me Adrian's history.
Nothing shocks me more than USA Today's upgrade to thoughtful journamalism and New York Times downgrade to "Nuh uh" and "But her emails" levels of discourse.
So you worked 308.5 hours in a 336 hour, 2 week pay period to make 22,500 after taxes? Impressive... most impressive, but not really close to 12 hours a week. See, there's this thing called MATH. Some people use it.
(It's a common nickname given to him as Harold Watson Gowdy III. But you probably already knew that and are being obtuse for comedic value. Play on.)

Trump was just overexcited to find out where North Korea was.

It won't be Steve Jobs.

Back in the day there was a two-reel Mitchell Bros. epic porn film "Inside the Box Factory."
This looks like a great career choice! I just ordered from Amazon "Spamming for Pennies for Dummies."
