      They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

        They won't get in until 7PM. Had to go crash at our daughter's place.

          I hate west coast to east coast flights. Either all day or all night.

            Sadly the redeye is the only nonstop, and the return flight the other way. I fondly recall when I could go almost anywhere in the world nonstop from CVG.

              I once took the red-eye back from San Diego, and came so close to crashing the car on the drive back from the airport that I decided to never do it again. Flying back from Europe is easier than that.

              I was only joking

                If @Horace was here he would remind us to stop our pointless banter and take a moment of silence to appreciate that @Mik might have to take a nap today. He specifically asked folks who can't take naps because of work or kids, to be sure to take an extra long moment of silence.

                Personally, I plan to take my moment of silence after lunch with my eyes closed, some ASMR playing, and it will last about 30 minutes until my watch wakes me up... I mean until my alarm tells me to stop taking the moment of silence.

                  Moments. Moments is plural, 89th. But your empathy is much appreciated.

                      Haven't read the whole thread, but I want to remind you all to stop this pointless banter and take a moment of silence to appreciate that @Mik might have to take a nap today. Those of you who can't take naps because of work or kids, please take an extra long moment of silence.

                      Education is extremely important.
