Off topic:
I was thinking about waiting for my post until it was late AM or PM in America so that I could get involved in the discussion (have to leave in a couple of hours). But there are already some replies. Do you guys never sleep?
Oh, hell no! We're still in round-the-clock mode from last week's election. :D
Seriously, though, we have four times zones and a wide variety of work schedules in this country. There's always going to be someone awake and freeping.
I have noticed that things tend to be slowest from about 3 to 6 a.m. Eastern time. That's after most of the West coast has gone to bed, and before most of the East Coast wakes up/
It's 6 in the morning here--sun is coming up so I'll be crawling into the coffin soon. Good luck to you and your country. Thanks for posting here. Keep us updated on the latest.
Go rest, do what you need to do. The discussion will continue regardless. You are doing a great job! Just please be sure to come back.
Also, instead of the Animals' "We've Gotta Get Out of This Place," how about Golden Earring's "Radar Love," or the Tee Set's "Ma Belle Amie," George Baker Selection's "Little Green Bag" or Shocking Blue's "Venus?" :-)
LOL! I had to get up at 3:00 and stoke the fire here in Alaska, which woke the dogs up, which meant standing around waiting for them to do their business, which led to watching the northern lights. So what else is a gal to do now that she can't get back to sleep?
