    I would have considered colorising the picture of Lincoln. Anywho, off to make an attempt at HDR, this will be my first try.

    My day has been brightened by a local retailer email informing me that Clinique Bonus Time is about to start next Wednesday. I like presents and I need new mascara.
     
  4. I'm so bored, I don't want to take my math test today. I just want to go home and watch hell on wheels.

    Traffic wasn't too bad for it being almost a holiday weekend and tomorrow being the first football game of the season. That was nice.

  8. Ahhh... Relaxing in the morning on the first of six days off. First extended break I've taken all year. Wonder how much of doing nothing I can handle.

    Today I'm supposed to be cleaning, working on two reports and my poster for the conference in September.
    It's been raining since 4:30 this morning and is supposed to continue most of the day.
    I'm going to have trouble getting out of bed. It's just so relaxing...

    Um...the Constitution gives the president the right to issue executive orders. That's what he's talking about. He also has the ability to propose laws, and influence and shape policy, as well as create policy in the executive branch. And actually, if you look at the greater context of what Lincoln was saying, the strong executive comes into play, given that he laid out what would become his fundamental claim for the future Emancipation Proclamation, a presidential proclamation.

    Every president since Lincoln has been more powerful than every president before Lincoln, because Lincoln made the presidency so much stronger.

    "I am walking across the room"
    "OMG! Look who won American Idol! #awesomestthingever"
    "Had a salad for lunch, I am SO eating healthy"

    Did I get it right, or at least the stereotype that some people make such a strong effort to meet?

    I think you'd be quite surprised how supportive and forum-like some of Twitter is.
    It's the same concept as why we chose who we do to hang with here: common interests, similar or compatible thinking, good humour.
    But, at 140 characters per Tweet, you'd probably be sunk. ;)

    Actually, I wasn't protesting or mocking anything...I really did need to take a shit,
    however this was on "pointless announcements" on the TFP, which doesn't have the rep of tweets as of yet.
    BUT...we CAN get there!! :D

    I need to take a shit...No shit. ;)

    I don't think that Rogue49 can say hello in less than 140 characters :p.
