Obviously, the Affordable Care Act’s open-enrollment period got off to a dreadful start, though there’s ample evidence that the system is the midst of a dramatic turnaround. Besides, two months of website troubles do not a year make.
And while Obama’s detractors will also note that no major legislation was signed into law this year, that just makes 2013 identical to 2011 and 2012 – when Americans elected a divided government featuring radicalized Republicans unwilling to compromise, the fate of good bills with popular support was sealed, but that’s hardly the White House’s fault.
Songs will never be sung in honor of Obama’s fifth year, but the “year from hell” talk seems disproportionate given the circumstances. There have been disappointments, but 2013 just hasn’t been that bad.
“Make sure that she can cook a meal, you need to eat some meals that she cooks, check that out,†he said. “Make sure she carries her Bible. That’ll save you a lot of trouble down the road. And if she picks your ducks, now, that’s a woman.â€
“They got to where they’re getting hard to find,†Robertson remarked. “Mainly because these boys are waiting until they get to be about 20 years old before they marry ‘em. Look, you wait until they get to be 20 years old, the only picking that’s going to take place is your pocket.â€
The Duck Commander company founder added: “You got to marry these girls when they are about 15 or 16, they’ll pick your ducks. You need to check with mom and dad about that of course.â€

Morning mon peeps. Raine, I did get your card last week. It now sits as the center piece to my collection of holiday cards on my desk here.

Heart's "All I Want to do is Make Love to You" Deconstructed.
You know, I’ve actually been on this date before. They haven’t said a word to each other — haven’t even exchanged names, for God’s sake — and already she’s convinced she’s in love. Whatever uncertainty existed regarding who the crazy person is here has now been put conclusively to rest.

This is the best thing I will read all day. It's not even 10 AM. I quit today.
All I wanna do is make love to you
I’ve got lovin’ arms to hold on to
Lovin’ arms? I’m sorry, but that’s pure conjecture. Given the lack of ambient light, for all she knows he’s got hooks for hands. And even assuming that the object of her sudden and completely irrational lust is whole-bodied, it’s possible that his arms aren’t lovin’ at all. He could be psychologically incapable of anything resembling intimacy. He might have curly yellowed mountain-guru fingernails. He may suffer from poor circulation in his extremities.

All night long
We made love
Alright, once and for all, can we please dispense with that pervasive lyrical filler “all night long� Can we all get together and admit to ourselves that it’s bullshit? That no one in the history of humanity has ever actually, literally had sex from dusk until dawn? That it’s probably a lot more like “Ooh, we made love for, like, seven minutes or so, at which point he pleaded exhaustion and asked for a time-out, which was sort of a relief because he was dripping sweat in my eyes like Chinese water torture, and he flopped onto his back and lit a cigarette, which we shared, and when that was done we started up again and this time it lasted maybe five minutes tops, after which I took a shower while he turned on Letterman, and when I came back I found he’d gone to the vending machines and bought a bag of Cheetos, which he was eating in bed, which was mostly fine because it’s not like it was my bed at my house or anything�

The Redskins launch a search for their eighth head coach (including an interim coach, Terry Robiskie, in the 2000 season) since Snyder purchased the team in 1999 from the Jack Kent Cooke estate.

8 coaches in 14 years? Methinks the problem does not lie with the coaches.
“Fourteen years as the owner of the Washington Redskins; seven different head coaches,†Keyshawn Johnson began. “Fourteen seasons. That, tells me, I don’t care how smart and how much money he’s made; he made his money doing things other than owning a football team. So hire the right people to run your football program. Stop recycling the same guys over and over. You tried it all; the best in college football, guys that used to be hot in the NFL. Why don’t you try something new for a change and see if that works? See if hiring a new guy works.â€
That didn’t really make much sense. Too many coaches, too many approaches, so try something new?
“This is the thing, he has tried everything,†Cris Carter noted.
Which made more sense.

Was it that empty for the whole game? Did people start bailing when the weather turned and the Giants started losing?
Quote by Raine:
The weather was truly craptastic yesterday. Raine, Snow Ice and rain -- cold cold rain. miserable stuff.
Snow would have been better.

You guys that aren't in the New England area are lucky you haven't had to deal with all the annoying commercials they have!
According to police reports, Carolyn Unfricht and Daniel Camarda were inside a Cartersville hotel arguing about the Bible and specifically the Ten Commandments
Unfricht told police things got heated when she hit him across the face with her Bible. Camarda retaliated by throwing her across the room.
Both are now facing battery charges and not surprisingly, the police report states they were “highly intoxicated†at the time of the arrest.
