"The tea table shall be set forth every morning with its customary bill of fare, and without any manner of defalcation." ... This line ... is an example of the earliest ... sense of "defalcation," which is simply defined as "curtailment." They were going to curtail the tea table! Those bastards.

2 : a failure to meet a promise or an expectation e.g. "In his response to the Gulf oil spill, Obama basically defalcated the bed."

Yeah, shouldn't that be "Nobody is more upset than I"?
To: VRWCmember
I think NO ONE is more upset than I, sounds better.

It didnt help that this is day 3 of the foster dog keeping us up all night with the barking. Help, anyone!!! PLEASE! One of the things that we do when a foster dog barks at night is to put a sheet or blanket over the crate to make it darker and more isolated. Make sure you don't reward the barking by responding and giving the dog attention.
At night, we keep our foster dog (sometimes dogs) in a crate in a separate bedroom (VRWCboy's old room that is now "the dog room") with the door closed. If the dog is barking, sometimes we will stand outside the door and wait for a while and when the dog barks again we will bang loudly on the door and yell "Quiet!" in order to equate a startling unpleasant noise as a response to barking. Only after several minutes of silence will we then go in and talk to the dog and give it attention. Sometimes we will then take the dog outside to see if it needs to take care of toilet business, then encourage the dog with positive reinforcement back into the crate. Reward calm and silence with attention; do not reward barking.

A+ for you. It would be sweet. Foster dog update: only barked for 3.5 hours on and off last night. That’s progress.

I had this same discussion with the hygienist at the dentist office this week. I said they are incompetent in every capacity, why would you want them to fail in another industry where they have zero knowledge? She finally agreed.

I don’t know how Matalin can stand looking at Serpenthead. That is true love, I guess. He was on fi-ya about the mess in his home state.

A because you just cracked me up, using my favorite profane remark, though I preface it with rat.
