now let's get to work because they're not done yet.

The new trend now on DU is the subtle threads popping up about southern bashing, they're
trying to hide their ways and what better way to do it than to remove from public discussion
their prejudice and discrimination actions.

So let's get to work.

A pack of them has been nipping at my heels today. But I kicked back! (not as hard as I can, though)

Oh, the tangled webs they weave...

Yet, "We Shall Overcome" regardless.

Welcoming back our Federal Workers. I just saw the vid of Pres Obama giving his speech on the Shutdown and Default that was averted. It was magnificent!

Joe brought muffins!

From your link..

Look at those smiles.

What a beautiful way to welcome back our furloughed workers! A smile a handshake and a slap on the back! Oh and we can't forget the muffins.

Beautiful day, we scored for the home team!
