I too almost left the DP. So the humor in it is not meant to be derogatory. It is intended to show how we just can't leave. Designed more to pull us together than divide. Most replies to this post indicate that it worked exactly that way.

Funny Big Mike. I tell myself I'm going to take a break from DP about once a week. For the first time in my life, I didn't get a Christmas tree this year because I was on DP all the time. When I finally went to get the tree, they were sold out.
Maybe next week I'll take a break.

On December 30th, 2008 Kevin Tuma says:

So you came out ahead!
Christmas trees are a symbol of our absurd consumer-driven society, in my opinion.
I was in Sam's Club last week, and people who should have been spending their hard earned cash on storable food were buying silk and plastic poinsettia trees. They were just snapping the things up. Half the baskets in line had one--they were ridiculous looking puffballs of red silk poinsettia leaves attached to a dead ficus trunk with plastic stems. They looked like something out of the old Dr. Seuss cartoons.
I was thinking to myself "Boy, times still haven't gotten as hard as they're going to...but people are in for a rude awakening."

comes in spurts.
I was very involved with this site during the primary. I mostly lurk now though. Soak up all pertinent information and only reveal myself when the mood so strikes or I see a topic that I just can't NOT reply to. OR if I happen to stumble on info that I haven't seen posted. Which is rare.
Other wise, I am quiet.
Unlike tonight for some reason. :D

Actually, just a handful of them were Jewish. Mike knows how to throw interesting parties...we had a Mars landing party years ago!

You can imagine I got into it with an English-born socialist friend who started with You support Ron Paul? He's a failed politician. I knocked him to kingdom come and set him straight, but we're still friends. He agreed to watch, America: Freedom to Fascism if I send him the link!
