The Democrats couldn't get enough votes despite having a majority because of the Dixiecrats.<br /><br />But who gets the credit? JFK or LBJ.<br /><br />And yes, I'll definitely miss stuff like "Watercooler with the Devs" unless someone else steps up to the plate on that.Balkothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12425374556730828853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4121163861977080819.post-1733796894744152962013-11-29T13:50:24.844-06:002013-11-29T13:50:24.844-06:00Should ask him to swing his yacht by ;)
As a soft...Should ask him to swing his yacht by ;)<br /><br />As a software developer, I can empathize with Ghostcrawler a lot. I get friends and family all the time saying, "Why does suck so much?" and I can only respond, "I don't even work on that product, let alone that feature." People just don't seem to understand how that works for some odd reason, despite it being explained many times. Though, it doesn't seem to be much different with folks blaming the President of the US for all sorts of things when it's really Congress that created a given law or bill, so I guess that's par for the course?<br /><br />Still, his line of communication and his slightly snarky attitude will be missed. I hated the uncommunicative Blizzard of old, with their inscrutable patch notes coming from upon high. Talarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17684944568000522986noreply@blogger.com
