Because I am more of a dog person, Cats are evil or at least some of them. They are very sneaky. ;)

But no dogs, they're ALL as friendly as can be?

Has anybody tried Grippo's Bar-B-Q potato chips? I can't decide if I like them or not.

Who do you think funds your friends in Sacramento?  No one could be so brazen - and continue to have the ability to be so brazen - without the entire California political establishment in their pocket. 

There are plenty of regulations, what we need is someone not connected to PG&E - or the legislature, if that's not redundant - to hold them to account, and insist they spend the money they charge for maintenance and upgrades to actually be spent on maintenance and upgrades.

To show you how bad it is, here's our local Democrat paper upbraiding our Democrat governor.  I was shocked they would write something so spot on about their allies:

Oops, put this in the Drama thread originally...

This is political, @VampireLily (heh, tried to @tigerlily you...)

Lower tax rates = Increased tax revenue
JFK's administration originally conceived of this system, at least that's the thing I have always been taught...

https://www.cnsnews.com/article/washington/terence-p-jeffrey/federal-income-taxes-and-federal-spending-both-set-records

...and Nancy Pelosi told us the Trump tax cuts were going to starve babies and old people.

Eh, nevermind...

Sounds like the girl that followed me into the bathroom at a Christmas party. 

Heh heh, ahh...

By the way, I am of the opinion that Bernie Sanders was ripped off by a corrupt Democrat Party. 
Eh, nevermind...
