Does my paycheck get docked for not putting up Wednesday’s word? Do I lose my Obamacare?
Re: the left’s tax and spend monomania
Can nothing be done to contain ya’?
Wasting all of our cash
Turning commerce to trash
Paying liars like Carney to explain ya’
A+++ Nah, just so you weren’t the one who pulled the plug on the server.
I did also. What happened?
Server crash. They had to buy a new one.
Monomania
When I explained to cousin Philbert that monomania was a single minded obsession he suggested widening out our goals to multimanias for the sake of variety.
Not hearing very well cousin Philbert thought I said moMomania and went into a daddodepression which required the voltage be turned up.
Philbert has a fear of nuclear power so he may be suffering from mononuclearosus or something.
Anyway don’t let monomania turn into malaise or you could have monomaninaise.
I am one of those monomaniac Freepers checking every hour to see if the site is back up! Yay and welcome back, everyone.
Glad we are back up.
Had to buy a new server?
What does this do to our budget?
Don’t know about the budget, but I think that they were planning a new server in the near future anyway. I think that is why the quarterlies jumped into the high $80k range a couple of fundraisers ago. Does anybody else remember?
As usual, you’ve got an amazing handle on today’s word. A++ LOL
LOL I didn’t check every hour....just once or twice a day. I figured I needed the break from politics. I actually had to do something else with my time. A++
Crimony crickets! A company badgering doctors to prescribe scooters? I know that I could use a scooter, and my orthopaedist says “no”. He thinks that relying on a scooter will make my recovery slower. I grab one every time I go into a store that offers them, however.
Surgery is scheduled April 5.
I’ll have to go with Fraidy’s answer as I have no clue. Time to make a donation, though.
Never tried one, I walk even if every step is painful. I need the exercise.
I’m bone on bone in one leg. It is WAY too painful to try to navigate around a “large box” store, or a supermarket, without the scooter. I’m going to get it fixed in April, but I suspect that I will hurt a whole lot more afterwards for a while.
