A ridiculous thing and craziness by lawmakers but this is what is happening. Here is a little article on yahoo that goes over how it costs them money to shut down the government, which is true. I think this is grandstanding in some measure and you have to feel for the government workers and soldiers overseas who will not get paid (ridiculous, right?). But there it is...

I think it is irresponsible of them not to pay our troops who are in harms way. That is just wrong. I have a brother over there, doing a job and this just undermines what he is working for.

Anyways. Look at this mess.

In a world...awesome.

Short review...well staged, campy...the guys...drop dead gawgeous. I touched two of them, on the hand, well held hands with them. I am in heaven. I would see it again, for sure. Loads of Bunday inspiration here. No frontal, loads of buns. I am happy!

Here is small recap of the show: (to the best of my recollection)

Vegas Number (red satin suits)
Night Fever (ala John Travolta - white satin suits)
Pirates of the Caribbean (yep)
Sydney Fire Department (fireman gear)
Men of Sparta (300)
Cowboy Dance (jeans and hats)

The MC (also a dancer) was hilariously funny and very personable. Just a great show and I would love to see the full troupe in Vegas. I think this was a subset of the group for a smaller club.

Cheers and good night!

I just checked CNN. They made a deal and Planned Parenthood was not sacrificed in the bargain. Seems like the Republicans had to back pedal some on the HUGE cuts they wanted to make. Go Obama! The federal government will not collapse or close as was feared. Temporary reprieve tho...keep this in mind.

Here is the story, if you want to read it. 800,000 federal jobs saved, military pay stays, welfare, disability, public funds, state parks...you name it. How did it get to this, well we are not out of it yet. They still have to fix this and this budget deal only lasts until April 15th. This story is worth keeping an eye on.

I thought it was important enough to update on, one last time tonight. Cheers all.
