Thursday/Friday Open Thread
Some new diaries have been posted that you will enjoy checking out. In the news, the big 3 are making their case again for a bailout, but face increased skepticism after their last attempt. What's happening?

It isn't really too shocking, that a Republican won in Georgia is it?

I hadn't realize that RS 4.0 was already up

It's a wordpress format. That means it's very different than RS 3.0 which lasted a whole 6 months. Maybe. I wonder if any of the rubes regret donating to the RS 3.0 fund- all $25,000 of it.
A commemorative tribute to RS 3.0:

Thats their image by the way... Yeah.
Is it really still "irony" when they cast themselves as the bad guys whose technical marvel blows up the second time its used? That may fall more into the category of "self fulfilling prophecy."

Imagination, lack thereof
My mother took me up for my monthly check up as far as the meds and she wanted tostop at some ubertrendy yuppie mall on the way. Specifically she wanted to go to "The container store" which is huely overpriced and plays the most god awgul christmas music imaginable.
What really got me about the place though was the total lack of imagination. Even the name, which on the store front is written in the most bland font, is generic to the point of making you think their marketeers are phoning it in.
And then I walked around the corner and saw a shop literally called just "Product."

I always laugh
when I think about the aisle in the grocery store that used to have all of the generic goods. I have not seen it since the mid-eighties or so, but they used to carry all of the high quality products like this:
