somebody show Obama the memo.

Obama doesn't know which protection missile can work vs which one has been canned. But give the man a little credit. He's willing to spend more money than is needed in order to fund a pipe dream that congress voted down.

Obama OMB Admits Obamacare Penalties Are Not Taxes - By Daniel Foster - The Corner - National Review Online

It's amazing what one can find out when one learns more about communication than sitting on the sidewalk throwing a tantrum and screaming "you're just a blankity blank idiot." Look at this, for example ...

Rep. Scott Garrett (R., N.J.) had a nice gambit just now in a hearing with President Obama’s acting OMB director Jeffrey Zients.

First he asked Zients if the Obama budget imposes any new taxes on Americans making less than $200,000. When Zients answered that it did not, Garrett followed up by asking if an individual making less than $200,000 a year opted not to carry health insurance, in contravention of the Affordable Care Act, is the fine associated with that decision a tax?

After some hemming and hawing, Zients answered that the fine did not constitute an tax. Which is a problem, considering the Obama administration’s entire case before the Supreme Court is premised on those fines being construed as taxes, not penalties.

Day 14: Friends and Sand Bags #NaBloPoMo

Well, some more of our friends are moving far away.

We met them and and some more friends for dinner tonight. We don't really see them so often ... but ... we all went through one of those "defining moments" together and we have many things in common. Having one last gathering *had* to happen.

Building, enginering, and sandbags were the topic of discussion ... unless of course you were trying to escape the sandbag discussion :)

Actually there was no escaping the sandbag discussion. How high. How to interlace strength. How to build in an earthquake region. How to build without a hammer. How to ... what if ... well then ... but what about ...

Two in the group talked faster and longer than the rest of us. His wife and my husband. There may have to be some long distance discussions.

Oh. She helps missionaries and other groups design buildings and homes for undeveloped countries.

We will miss them.

Day 12: Watching Movies

Billy: Did you have fun watching movies with Ashley?

Me: Yes!

Billy: Why do you like watching movies with Ashley and not with me?

Me: Because you don't like light-weight girly movies.

Billy: Oh. You're right. I don't.
