We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail!
Good morning!!
Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!

At an Arizona fundraiser, Teresa predicted that The Evil One would be captured before the election.
She also said she was embarrassed to receive tax cuts from the Bush Administration. (But the real question is whether she sent a check to the Treasury returning them--bet she didn't!)
Oil has reached $49/bbl.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
The next entry was from a scientist discussing tripedal locomotion in spider monkeys. LOL!
You would think that the robotics geek would be more informed. I thought everybody knew a dog named Tripod from their youth. 8>)
/john
Only when the vet students were learning amputation by vivisection.
/john
At least Tripod lived. Contrary to what some at FR may believe, I am on the dog's side.
Shall I start calling you names so you'll feel at home ... ;-)
John, I'm off to bed. Tomorrow's a busy day. We're setting up for our company before we leave around 8:00 AM. We went to a reception tonight. The trophy is a cool 22.5 inches tall, the exact measurement of a band step when marching 8 to 5. That's eight steps every five yards for the non-band members. We saw some old friends and met some of LD's friends and I'm to bed.
I'll greet folks in the AM. Good night.
Kay, LOL! I was called a puppy-killing muslim, or moslem, terrorist male who cannot be trusted with children or old folks.
Good night.
Since I probably won't "see" you in the morning ... hope y'all have a GREAT day! It sounds like so much fun!
You can read a little bit about it here ... news14charlotte.com ... (I don't think that's one of the sites you have to register to read). There are some links down at the bottom with a little more info.
God bless you and yours.
And don't worry about the party... it's less than 200 folks. ;>)
/john
Thank you for the information and link.
In the next few days, I need to write you a freep-mail with a zillion questions. NC is growing on me. You and your hubby may be able to provide some information that I need.
/john
Just a quick wave hi. I'm not feeling well, the guy next to me at work was diagnosed with strep on Monday, and now I have a very sore throat. :( I stocked up on the orange juice, chicken noodle soup, etc and I am taking it easy this weekend. and I'm off to bed. Toodle-loo!!!
Take care of yourself and have a good weekend.
/john
Take good care of yourself, Sweetie! Rest Well.
We will be leaving town Wednesday evening and be gone until Sunday night. Heading down to Charleston for a conference until Saturday (just in time to miss the hurricane, we hope) and then to Wilmington. And we hope that our accommodations are intact when we get to the coast.
I hope it's not strep, sweetie. If you really suspect that it is, get thee to a doctor. Strep will keep coming back until you knock it in the head with an antibiotic. (*voice of experience*)
I'm going to check out for the evening before I go to sleep at the keyboard.
I'm gonna' start Dawn patrol early (getting ready for the airplane - here in Copenhagen)
Glad you started it early, because again the cat got me up. I am going to start making him sleep in the garage if I can't break him of this habit. Grrr.
