What happened today???
I left for work this morning at 9:30 and just got home (it's been a loooooong day) and from what I see, the shit has hit the fan!!!!
I don't have any internet access at work, just came home and I see some posts from admins and others that are so out there.

1. Tension over tomorrow

2. Maybe but...............
most of what I have seen is about tsunami 'conspiracy' theories. What does that have to do with tomorrow's electoral vote and Conyer's challenge?

3. Everybody
Edited on Thu Jan-06-05 02:25 AM by Maple
is jumping on everybody else over every possible subject. The snarking has reached high levels today.

If you check the top of the board you'll see the admins comment on a NY Times article that mentioned DU and the tsunami. That seemed to set everybody off, and it was open season after that.

6. I had seen the NYT article yesterday and........
it didn't seem like it was that damaging.
Conspiracies??? What about the 'vast right wing' one from the Clinton years????

9. Well I didn't think it was a big deal either
but, possibly because of all the tension here, it caused a shitstorm.

Any other time it probably would have been laughed off.

11. There is hope
that the Dems might get rid of Bush and install Kerry. And since Kerry won't even be there tomorrow, a kerfuffle broke out about that too.

It's just been that kind of day.

5. I work in food service as a manager and had someone who..
came in to get their paycheck (it was payday today) at the time time he/she was supposed to start work. Instead that person said, 'I found another job' , so I was short a server and had to take that person's place.
So, yeah, I just got home...........sigh

7. You poor dear.
You should rest your feet. I hope you are off tomorrow (today), because Will thinks it will be an exciting day. On Olbermann's blog, he says that 6 senators will contest the election, but he didn't have the proof.
