Daily fiddlybits

1. Square danced last night. I want an ice pack that stays cold a long time.

2. Much yumminess this morning: cranberry-orange pork sausage and bell pepper, both diced, scrambled into some eggs. More bell pepper next time.

3. The phrase "No Representation Without Taxation" jumped into my head and I can't get it out.

4. Rob is soloing another student.

Some day I want to make a list of folks this isn't true for in the US.


1. Minors.


2. Some Felons.


3. Residents of the District of Columbia.

Remember when your parents said... okay, I don't know if yours ever said this, but mine did: "As long as you're living under MY roof [you'll follow my rules]" or "When you can support yourself [you can do things your way]"? In other words, if you weren't contributing -- as long as you were still a freeloader -- you didn't get a vote.

I would like to scrub my brain now.
