I’m suspending my politweeting for the holiday. A sweet and a happy Rosh Hashanah to all.
“The [reps] who are retiring… the most neutral arbiters of the public good — voted overwhelmingly for this measure.” http://tr.im/4e3
“I’ve never been afraid of stepping in to solve problems for the American people…” Yes, John, that’s part of the problem. http://tr.im/4cd
I’ll bet my 401k against your 401k that this mess gets blamed on trial lawyers and welfare moms.
“Leadership vacuum” doesn’t even begin to describe it.
2008, Bush says “Spend billions to buy into banking system, preserve retirement savings and ease recession.” House GOP: FYITE.
Y’know, after seven years, Republicans in the House choose this exact moment to find their balls? Stay classy, GOP. #balls
Recap: 2003, Bush says “spend billions to kill people, find imaginary weapons.” House GOP: Yay!
Wasn’t all this mishegas supposed to be taken care of by McCain’s heroic 22-hour trip from NYC to DC? #suspend
One dead HP server, coming right up. Oh wait, you DIDN’T order the “Wreck Your Holiday Special?”
I’m just going to quietly go out and buy myself some lunch, a barrel and a tray of apples.
Nice when Monday kid drop is so smooth.
Gah! There was a new Alton Brown “Feasting On…” series — and I missed it.
I can’t get over the sheer number of German-speaking folk in Park Slope.
Dude, it’s called “hypertext.” Maybe you’ve heard of it. http://tr.im/3n4
Ah, boot.ini, my old nemesis. We meet again. I still have the scars from our last encounter, but you look just the same as ever.

You know, Tina Fey makes the prospect of a McCain/Palin administration just a little teensy bit less terrifying.
Amy Poehler as a hugely pregnant Katie Couric is funny just on its own.
Thanks to everyone who responded with domestic violence resources. I was, indeed, jumping to conclusions — other medical emergency.
Neighbor taken away in ambulance. Sad. If you know/are someone who works with immigrant victims of domestic violence, let me know.
Ambulance next door. @heidihoover is checking it out.

Xanadu: 7yo sees red paint in a water glass, says “Wow, that looks just like a Bloody Mary.” That’s our girl.
Family movie night tonight: Xanadu. No time like the present to completely mess with the children’s little brains.

Hrm. This VMware Fusion image is 18GB worth of data but it won’t shrink below 90GB of disk space. Not cool.

Thought I heard the 3yo crying downstairs at the synagogue. Turns out one of the classes was practicing the shofar.
Realizing that I’m still not at 100%. Head, throat, chest achy. Need coffee and Advil.
RT @bcompton Indeed, Sarah Palin has been silently pre-raptured into the office of VP.

The absence of Gov. Palin from the post-debate spinfest is as glaring as the noonday sun. On Mercury.
Holy smackdown, CNN’s instant poll is WAY over on the Obama side. Better on economy: 58% to 37%.
What @heidihoover can’t say: one of her youth group kids is now following her. Hence, the bowdlerizing.
What’s actually astonishing to me is that Obama has skilled up on foreign policy so well in 3 years. Guy’s got game.
