at "containing" the energy before it finally fails. More bang for their sick buck, I guess.

I'm waiting to see if Mamma gets arrested tomorrow. Apparently she skipped out on her OCT court date for felony shoplifting last June, and the police have said they've got handcuffs with her name on 'em. Hope her (ex) husband brought enough money for bail...!

Also, the latest on their money situation is that they were getting WELFARE payments in addition to the "off the books" money they were getting from this-n-that. The GOP are freaking and peaking over that, of course...~!
