  1. The last shutdown lasted three weeks

     

    The three-week shutdown that lasted from Dec. 16, 1995, to Jan. 6, 1996, ranks as the longest in U.S. history. As a result, about 284,000 federal workers were furloughed, and around 475,000 essential employees went without a paycheck, although they were eventually reimbursed.

     

    They weren't the only ones inconvenienced. Some benefits for military veterans were delayed, and cleanup at more than 600 toxic waste sites was stopped. The government also shut down for six days in mid-November 1995, initially resulting in the furlough of 800,000 federal employees. The Congressional Research Service reported the shutdowns cost taxpayers a combined $1.4 billion.

     

    AMERICA!

     

    CANADA! Government Shut Downs DO NOT HAPPEN IN CANADA!

     

    Just Saying

  2. I do nothing productive all day every day.  I wake up at 9:30 and grab my laptop and watch some TV for at least a couple hours while almost constantly refreshing vinyl collective.  After that I finally roll out of bed to eat, which 99% of the time is takeout then I come back home and eat and do nothing till about 2 when I get ready for work.  I swear I am the laziest piece of shit on the planet.  All I want to do is sleep 14 hours a day.

     

    It's kind of funny because at work I'm the total opposite, no one can keep up with me. 

    LOL :lol:
