Good Morning!

Welcome to Tuesday's Open Thread. The month of September is a lean month for Trader Joe's crew members at Store #171. On September 1st, our manager initiated a “Biggest Loser” contest at our store along with a $300 prize as incentive. Little did I know when I signed up what these guys are capable of in their quest to win. Ice cream, doughnuts, and fried chicken showed up in the break room, mysteriously, during the first week of the competition, followed by some smack talk about which one of us would not last till the end. As a fellow competitor you know what I say? Bring. It. On.

The only statement in the other post is

"This is why we don't have nice things..."

gjohnsit provided me the video.

Will you watch?

Will you comment?

This is a test. Be strong. Believe in yourself. Do whatever you want.

Scientifically calculated results tomorrow. (You can believe me. I'm on the internet).

I am not a young person, but, in my entire voting life I have never, ever voted for a candidate in which I had virtually no qualms about whatsoever. To be honest, I think I just shut off the part of my brain that used to say, "this isn't nearly enough" and just lived with it. So, about the title. Yeah, I know Obama used 'audacity', but he has long relinquished any form of boldness (as in,the day he was elected), so I'm claiming it for Bernie Sanders. It fits.
