It's worse than we'd imagined...
U.S. Debt Outgrows Debt Clock
The national debt has surpassed $10 trillion, thereby exceeding the 13 digits the National Debt Clock in New York's Times Square. What do you think?
Clark Mariano,

"That's a debt clock? I thought it was just a sign that counted to 10 trillion."
Françcoise Lefevre,
Systems Analyst
"Look, if everyone just donated one dollar, we would have enough money to buy a new debt clock."
Mark Wiedenbach,
Surveyor
"At least the McDonald's sign still keeps track of the billions served…. It doesn't? Oh, man. These are dark times."

Obamanation
Last night at 3 am Kona started barking! So Hannah held her mouth shut, literally, for about 15 minutes, after which she heard some cars start in front of our house and drive away. This is what we found in the morning:Kona is an avid Obama supporter. Hali says it's because she's black. It is Utah after all, and this was one of only two Obama campaign posters out of all of them.
After having gotten mad at her for keeping Hannah up all night, Kona felt vindicated.
Avid. Derek walked in the house and was genuinly appalled to see Kona sporting an Obama cape, saying, "Ah! Kona, you can't wear that!!"
Such a good watch dog.
