You know,

it was just wonderful to be at work today, paid via ARRA to be like the
guy in Grapes of Wrath, who ran the `good' camp for the Joads. Clean
places, safe, concerned, working for the people. Did a couple of temporary
repairs, and a nice long consult for a mother worried about her brain 
damaged
son who is struggling back to independent living, making a good society
for the most vulernable. Happy tonight, with pleasant dreams. Really people,
you want this. We are coming alive again after the long winter of 
discontent. And I mean long, like thirty years.

I sat in front of the big glass-alumnium doors at my desk, phone, notebook, 
and they came hobbling, rolling, or just wondering in like the homeless guy 
who needed the toilet. Sure, it's down there to the right, and turn to the 
left---stinking drunk, looking fugitive and wild. It is beautiful to say 
Yes, instead of No.

CG working like the WPA and OEO whatever the authorization...
