So anyone besides me affected by the shutdown of govt? Currently catching up on some house chores , grilling and beer drinking.

Not yet, but I run out of funding halfway through next week. The furloughs over the summer hurt enough!!!

Sorry to hear that. I have school loans if I was to not get paid I would be in trouble. Seems it is going to affect the Blues too.

"Brenden Morrow’s debut with the Blues may be put on hold, and the recent shutdown of the U.S. Government could be playing a part in his absence."

Well If this goes through the weekend, I am allowed to apply for unemployment. I guess I get to see the bureaucracy of applying for benefits while oversees.
