...even though we're going to have to pay them time and a half for working on the weekend.

in spite of popular opinion, the caiman threat to Olympia is very real. OK, call me Cassandra. I'm used to it. Now that the cold weather is here, they are retreating to the warm confines of the steam plants at the Capitol Campus and via the steam tunnels, at the underground of TESC. A few delegated caimans are assigned to act as lobbyists when the Legislature meets, and they will not be noticed among the others. This is why I have been an advocate of draining that body water once known as "Capitol Lake" but now called by the intelligentsia as the Fetid Lake of Doom (or FLOD, thanks for the acronym, Crenshaw!) so we can locate their tunnels and block them! Imagine an army of OlyBloggers with rubber boots walking the mud flats, picking up trash, performing a public service, and at the same time scouting for signs of the LARGE REPTILE INSIDIUOSNESS!!! Really, though, we have already had several OlyBlog cleanups along the shore of the FLOD, maybe now it is time to coordinate with Washington State Dept. of General Administration for a cleanup once the FLOD is drained. We have until Spring to prepare for the caiman onslaught. Let OlyBlog be the vanguard. Of course, in order to do so, we have to fix these little glitches in the system in order to communicate effectively. But each day that passes without the fix is like another tick on the time bomb.

but in addition to the above mentioned ills, I now notice the "search" function will not pick up posts made today or yesterday. Try searching "Ungovernor," (Greene fails to show up) or "Mishkar" (Sarah's last post)

GREAT job on the color change for "new"!!
