"I can’t feel you anymore
I can’t even touch the books you’ve read
Every time I crawl past your door
I been wishing I've been somebody else instead
Down the highway, down the tracks
Down the road to ecstasy
I followed you beneath the stars
Hounded by your memory
And all your raging glory"

i will be very surprised if there is no dragged out delay to the SNAP program up & running even tho the Dems laid down like cowards.
& Obamacare premium vote is a vaporware Repub promise
