Cyber!

poor georgie’s almanack:
When lights go out and sewage backs up it may be weather, or the Russians, or N Korea wanting us to think it is the Russians.

good and bad things

poor georgie’s almanack:
Good things seem to happen fast. 
Bad creep up slowly.

poor georgie’s almanack:
Jobs are the aspirin of the unemployed.

A The Mailman's Tale

poor georgie's almanack

There is no check in the mail.

Donkeys want --but can't pay for -- a world that never can be.

Elephants want -- but won’t pay for -- a world that never was.

All most of us want is a reality check.

Our Galaxy's Prostate Test

poor georgie’s almanack:
They just found an Earth-like planet far, far away.
But, to be ranked as habitable, it has to be able to hold its water.

Luck

poor georgie’s almanack:
Good luck usually comes at others’ expense? 
It feels much better if you don’t know them.

We must be stupider than Congress

Poor (and getting poorer) Georgie doesn't usually post more than once a day,

BUT ... It is Congress’ fault the Heartbleed bug firewall has only one full-time employee, ten part-timers, no govt. oversight, and is mostly funded by $5 and $10 checks. 

The decline and fall of the American Empire is totally the fault of Republican idiocy aided and abetted by Democratic stupidity and media fears of not showing the other side, even if the other side is stupider  and more self centered than Congress. 

No wonder Congress is less respected than bedbugs. 

And, again, we will vote in the perpetrators. 

Grrrr.
