Can they pass that appropriation in September? I've got lots of leaves then and sure could use the funds to help get rid of them all.

Buff and all other affected federal workers will be happy to know that your employer-in-chief will be sharing your pain by taking his family for a vacation in Williamsburg this weekend. So while you relax and enjoy some free time, he'll be doing the exact same thing...

Don't worry, though...he lost my vote when he destroyed the manned space program.

As a Working Capital Funded organization, our warfare center will continue to operate as funds are available, probably through the end of the month.
Life goes on.
