No, not the latest LJ news or rumours. Christ, people, there's more going on in the world than a little internet community's restructuring.

Congressman sleeps on cot to save cash

At first glance, with a title like that one would expect to read about some stunt for charity. But nope, this congressman from Utah is actually sleeping in his office to save on having to rent an apartment in DC.

And before anyone starts making jokes about rich people being insanely frugal, please note that the man has a wife, three kids, and a mortgage. I don't blame him. I may be a Democrat, but that's one Republican that has the right damned idea in my opinion.

...although if I slept at the office I'd never get any actual sleep. Those fucking researchers never seem to go the hell home.

random, news
