I'm not sure. :( In any case, this is really bad. :scared:

2. Where ya been?

glad to see it's being reported... btw, those "two others" are New York & New Jersey.

I enjoy the comforting words from the White House, assuring us that our ports will be "no less safe than they are now."

5. Well, our nation-in-HOCK is due to be repossessed by China

sez a local wingnut doctor vacations in Russia and China, then yaks on the radio about it. This year he went again to China and sez the Chinese are a VERY HAPPY people, very CONFIDENT about their future as the #1 world power, which includes taking ownership of the U.S.A., that this will happen without a CHEENEE shot or without the Minutemen harassing them, that we are increasingly in hock to them and when the debt comes due, it will happen with the click of a few keyboard clicks.
