"Going to funerals" has gone from #18 to #2 on Joe Biden's "to do" list.
I am about 25% sure of this.

I actually think that she'll do a good job as Secretary of State. And this gets her out of the Senate which is a good thing.

I wasn't trying to be obnoxious or anything. Just thought any Hillary supporters would want it to be spelled right. I've been cleaning all day, and this is the only thing I'm sure of. I certainly can't vouch for my efficacy as a cleaner. Plus, I can't edit your post heading.

I'll be happy to vouch for your efficacy -- want to come over and help me clean out the guest room tomorrow?

If not, wish me luck . . .

Hell's bells. If only it were one room... Sure! I'll clean your guest room! You can clean the rest of my house.

Ouch! Thought you were done with the rest of your house.

It is only one room, though -- gotta wade through all the political stuff so a guest can actually stay in the room starting Sunday.

Eh. I'm on a Sisyphian challenge. The guys will just pit it out all over again, so... However, I feel like I've made an effort, if for ONE DAY, the place is relatively non hazmat material.

Its OK, I wasn't trying to be obnoxious either.

I was trying to work my wiles on the edit function, hit "poll" with no poll instead & apparently crashed the board, or at least the server, or at least it looked that way on my end anyway.

Yes. :D

I say it, and all y'all know I know how to spell supposedly, and as T points out, I say prolly too, as well as probly, and I'll prolly start tpying probly now.

I had a weird server error, too. Like a death screen thing. Then it all came back. It was odd.

I just hope that on her first visit to Germany, she does not repeat her previous comment that the Rhine is a French river (Germans get a little snippy about things like that).
Innocent, naive and whimsical. And somewhat footloose and fancy-free.

Usually people up for Sec of State have enough experience in foreign affairs that they dont have to lie about their experience.

i will take a leap of faith on this one and believe Obama knows something I dont.
