By the time most of you read this I will have left on my prison volunteer trip and will return Friday afternoon I do have one short take today.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today’s took me 4:09 (average 5:12). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Take:
From MoveOn: 10 Ideas to Save the Economy: End Corporate Welfare
Your tax dollars are going into corporate coffers, not funding investments that help all of us.
Our Reich on the left is right. Their Reich on the right is wrong. This is the sixth video in the series. Please click through to MoveOn and share it from there.

Have a safe, productive and enjoyable trip. We'll be waiting …
4:17 average (still) 5:12. If TC is having weather warm enough to need a wet towel to cool off, I'll be envious.
Of course Reich is right (the one on the left of course I mean. It's one of the things that makes me angriest. I assume you've seem this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tu32CCA_Ig Did you already post it? Well, you know what they say, first the memory goes, and the next thing you know, it's the memory.
Cartoon – Cats and dogs can get along very well when properly socialized. Clearly this dog was (and of course we all already knew that you were.)
I echo Nameless' wish for a safe, productive, and enjoyable trip, and would add " and not TOO tiring."
3:14 Bow wow! Translation: feels so cool!
MoveOn — Talk about entitlements! The Republicanus/Teabaggerum talk about people being moochers with SNAP, unemployment, medicaid, etc having an entitlement attitude and the only way to deal with that is to do away with social benefits. But what many people fail to understand is that the Republicanus/Teabaggerum believe in tax loopholes, bailouts and subsidies for the corporations and the 1% which is corporate welfare, and the 1% and corporations think they are entitled to this. So who are the real moochers? I really wonder when the middle and working classes that vote Republicanus/Teabaggerum will open their eyes and vote in theirs and their neighbour's best interest . . . that is not for the Republicanus/Teabaggerum!
The sign on the lawn at my church reads "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful". Over the years, I have found just how true that is. Nobody will get everything they want in life. It is a balancing act. But even if you don't get everything, life can be fulfilling. So why should corporations and the 1% get everything at the expense of you and I?
Cartoon — Hmmmm. . . Puddy Tat on dawg!? Works for me, but just keep your claws dug in to spur the dog on!
Have a great time with your guys and say hi to them from this crazy Canuck Sasquatch! . . . and from the 3 littlest sasquatches too!
3:33 Happy dog because he didn't have to tangle with our Puddy-Tat.
Have a safe, productive trip!
I totally agree with Reich. Now if we could get Congress to listen to him, we could renew our country.
Enjoy the ride!
