...any special plans for the weekend, youse Americans?
Me... um, hmm. I'll be painting some, probably, and maybe getting back on the strict diet/exercise tip. Maybe. :o
No real plans, now that I think of it. No dough to really go anywhere or anything. Maybe it's time to use my pass to see Mountain View or more of Palo Alto or something.
You?
P.S. "Longer Weekend" is a song by Polarboy. You haven't heard of them, and they're gone now, but they made one really good album.

Buh, simple celebration with my nuclear family. Formal party this weekend I do believe. Next weekend I've got to drive to Chicago to get shit-faced with my boys. I think my uncle is taking me to a strip club or something, not sure.

Awww.... sorry.
It's just that Monday is a holiday in the States, so a lot of us have three-day weekends coming up.
But, yeah: we care. And we try harder. ;)

F'ing Europeans. You all don't get stupidly long hours for 6.50$, twice as much vacation time or some such number. And universal healthcare. Did I mention good quality whips? As in cars, old timer.

What is that -- about nine bucks an hour?
Some European cars are excellent, yes. Not many American cars are.

My kid's coming home (y) because his laptop won't load its OS (n). That's what I'll be doing on my two-day weekend. My work doesn't acknowledge the contributions of our nation's presidents past or present.

Cost of living won't have it. Can't raise a family properly, also consider the fact we have to pay for our medical insurance.
Heh, good automobiles? Are you thinking like the early first half of the 20th century perhaps. Not no more, american cars for the most part are inferior to German/English and of course Japanese cars. Even with the heavy tariffs placed on them. And safer for the most part, German cars capable of 80mph+ safely. Autobahn creates higher levels of safety.
I wan't out. Will try to make my escape this weekend. What do most people do anyways? Go camping?
