It's Over~
= new reply since forum marked as read
You're welcome. 
I feel exhausted all over again just watching the 5 minute video.
We rock Irish, America the beautiful~
For me, that show and "Lost" were the greatest ever. When I give myself NetFlix very soon now, I'm liable to stay indoors all week doing little but watching every episode of both shows again, at least once if not more. I've heard that President Obama liked Bartlett too, but I can't really think of anybody he'd be so fond of on "Lost". When that show was current, I even joined Lost University online, specifically Ben's group. We planned (and tried to execute) the worst kinds of devilment against the other houses that we could dream up. Guess I never was a real candidate for sainthood. Ben had his issues, but we loved him anyway. Though I did watch a lot of Lost on NetFlix. I need to go back and finish it, I liked it.
I picture you more like this, Irish~
wonderfully fair and balanced.
With the voice of an angel and a heart of gold.

Mahalo she
They moved in a beautiful choreographed way. Strength in motion.
John Boehner's Shutdown Endgame: "The Final Spasm of a Corpse"
Headline from

He was trying to kill us(I don't think it's hyperbole to say that) and has succeeded in taking so much away from poor babies and their mothers that.. is it any wonder we're a little bit Schadenfreud at his many political obits? 
From your link, she..
Regrettably, I was wrong. As it happens, Reid and McConnell came very close to inking a deal Monday night, but then McConnell suspended their negotiations on Tuesday to give Boehner a chance at passing a bill, which promptly collapsed under the weight of his own ineptitude and your basic garden-variety House Republican lunacy, at which point Reid and McConnell resumed their negotiation over a deal that will soon pass the Senate and force Boehner’s hand. Which is to say, I missed the all-important “let’s briefly pause so Boehner can flail helplessly while the entire world looks on in horror before we officially end this thing” step in the process.
Mahalo she.. again for the beautiful OP
And I will also give McConnell some credit for understanding the need to get this done. Oh, I hate the man, yet he did the right thing here.
Thank god someone from the GOP did.
