Steve Bates said...: Watched all 21 episodes while waiting for a Ubuntu Linux system to update itself. NOW what do I do? "There but for the grace of God" doesn't cut it, does it. We don't have an El here, but we have similar scenes under freeways, bayou bridges etc. Seriously, WTF are we supposed to do?; Sunday, August 19, 2007 7:34:00 PM
hipparchia said...: heck, i've had them living in my back yard [i'm working on a post or two about it all].

we used to have more of them living under the overpasses here too, but the county recently started running them off. it's not a solution, none of it, and i don't have very many ideas on where to start. except maybe with universal health care, care that anybody could walk into a clinic or hospital or doctors office and get. that would be a start.; Sunday, August 19, 2007 8:17:00 PM
