The public knows the GOP is fibbing
Only Republicans really buy the anti-healthcare reform lies. So why are some Dems settling for such an awful bill?

Almost disaster
_DSC2378.jpg)
Our entrance hall light fixture broke - suddenly, without warning!
I was baking a challah (another story.) The loaf was in the oven in last minute or so of baking. I heard a metallic clang and Bernie (Karen's dog for whom we are dog-sitting) started barking.
I followed the noise, and saw that our large glass bowl had come away from its mounting. Three of the four supports had failed, the fourth was barely supporting it - see the picture. At that moment, the timer sounded that the challah had to come out of the oven.
Putting first things first, I took the challah out (possibly prematurely).
I found a ladder in the garage, but it was not high enough for me to reach the fixture (and fall off, as I did last Friday, but that's also another story.) The bruises are now fading.
Fortunately we had workmen nearby in another part of the building. I enlisted one of them to help. I swung the the fixture over the railing that you can see in the background and while he held the glass I unscrewed the last support.
If that heavy glass had fallen on a person or a dog it could have been fatal.
All safe now, however.
