Blissfully disconnected
I have not had the teevee on since just before 8AM.

No radio either.

Just a few quick check-ins here at DU.

And ya know ..... it does a clown good to just be blissfully ignorant, even if only for a day.

So what did I miss and about what ought I be po9utraged?

1. That's how I do it.........
I'm still trying to recover from the news that there will be no "House" tonight, but a PRESIDENT OBAMA PRESS CONFERENCE is a more-than-adequate substitute.

It takes a national event for the TVs here to be turned on during the day.

And, yeah, dipping into DU is how I found out A-Rod confessed.

World kept turning.

Nice, huh, Stinky?

So, what's for dinner?

3. After nearly two weeks without power,
and limited radio access (rock oldies,some weather, no news), I can tell you how NICE it was. I haven't checked in about news now until today. Thanks for starting the thread, because I need to know what is going on as well!

4. Whoaa, dude. That means you missed the breaking news that aliens landed and sucked the brains
out of all the GOPers on Capital Hill. It was total pandemonium.

Afterwards, everyone remarked on how you couldn't tell the difference.

"Cripes, I'm already hungry again."
