i get a kick out the postal thing, they are their own entity so they should still be delivering

I was at the commissary yesterday before it closed down today, good thing you got your beanie wienies cuz the Vienna sausages were gone! And so were many shelves of goods. I'm right there with you! I stocked up on Ramen bowls. The kids love 'em.

Listened to Mark Levin's rant this evening. I had to chuckle, he was so fired up. He said they were threatening to arrest some of the vets. He said he'd bring half a million people to march on Washington if they dared. I don't think I've ever heard him so fired up! It was stupid to barricade it up. Its an open air memorial. That was done for special effects, just like the Sequester release of masses of illegal immigrants.

Some people are considered mission essential in military civilian staff Also. A friend is a secretary to a commander, she is exempt. I was surprised since, they usually put an active duty person to fill in.

Our commissary was open yesterday. They told the cashiers they had to work, but would not get paid until after the gov. Reopens. If they refused they would get fired. I tipped the bagger extra because they are mostly retirees and they won't get tips if the commi. Is closed.
