Sorry, you're not allowed to buy a pony because you had a pre-existing condition. I know you have the money for a pony, and yes, there are ponies for sale. Just not to you.

No free ponies. No free health care either. Guess you were listening to Beck again. Glad they got that "fast sale" over with. It's been going on for almost a year now.

No free ponies, or health care?

Well, shit to bed Fred!!!!

To be completely honest, I have no idea of what they have just passed.

Which, I would imagine, puts me on par with everyone in the House, no matter which way they voted.

Might be good, might be bad, but if they haven't included themselves I'm inclined to be suspect of it.

Besides, the show just started.

Tonite.

The days of passing bills late on a Saturday night thinking that no one's watching are over.
