Gov's still shutdown. Trump's an idiot. This will come back to bite him. No it won't. He'll easily win re-election. Government shutdowns are nothing new. This isn't the first and won't be the last.

I'm not sure we have anything like that. The closest would be a "turtleneck", similar to what you said but with a high, roll over neck. Maybe an "undershirt"? That would be the closest but mostly for men. The vest sounds nice for cold days but maybe too warm to be comfortable inside? We do "layers" when it's very cold. Helpful but not always too comfortable. trurtle necks only come in sweaters and a high roll neck is a polo neck on a woollen/silk/cashmire sweaters and we do layers too.. the vest being one of the layers when its really bitter... most of childhood wanting to do away with them.. then all the intervening years till old age strikes and its back to them in general theres self mockery about them with remarks such as ""I had to put my vest on today"" or some one is so nesh they wear two vests""

This isn't the first and won't be the last. yes I was reading about this not being unusual... .. so if its not unusual why all the fuss about it and much more importantly how come people are willing to be employed if they are not absolutely sure of being paid when pay day arrives,, and why have successive governments not sorted out the pay situation

The working without pay is unusual, too. People are starting to get fed up.

If no one else posts the Golden Globe winners I shall give it a try later on. Christian Bale won best actor for playing Dick Cheney in "Vice" and thanked Satan for helping him play the U.S. Vice President so well. Republicans were overly offended considering Cheney's reputation. Warmer weather now and later today.

Nothing new but it's turning into an extra long one with many workers working with no pay in order to keep their jobs. Trump is trying to divert attention from the requests for 10 years of his tax records and the fact that Mueller's investigation should be tied up in about 6 months. Take notice that when he has a crisis brewing he tries to create a bigger racket with a crisis of his own making.

No, they're not new enough to get him the attention he craves. He'll go the National Emergency route. Pig!

Looking forward to this one.
