Gee, I just want to get through Thanksgiving first!!!!!...LOL

Agree!, BUT, I am going Christmas shopping today...the weather is too good to pass up going out and running about...

[DollyCali]

Thanks .. I thought I had heard that, but not really being a long time follower of all these folks, tend to still confuse them.

Had to laugh re: comments on new furniture/pets demise related. I will never have a life without pets, I don't believe.. I have learned to get a little less crazy than I did when I was younger about it.

I visited a male neighbor a few weeks ago.. hadn't been to his place for about a year. we had a party there/football related. He just got a few cats & a new dog late 2002. His place was never House beautiful, but he did have nice things.. typical bachelor -- lots of clutter (actually that is me too).. when I got there about a dozen folks were there, chatting & waiting for game . I chuckled quietly to see the expensive modern furniture resembling at trunk of a shagbark hickory tree! The cats had complete control of the house. Never having children, these were his kids & were very loved & very friendly.

My indoor cats don't claw gratefully. Litter boxes are ignored often & the rug shampooer gets lots of use. good quality/High powered air filters are good...

We often do idiotic things for "our loves" don't we?

[DollyCali]

I love his careful way of speaking... his gentle voice..

I am going out lated today, but for a hopefully long bike ride... I too cant pass up the weather - BUT NOT FOR SHOPPING..

Great open, Chair! Good morning, All.

[Guenevere]

Mornin' Thirds....what's the weather in beautiful Denver?
...those Rocky Mountains still there?...:))

[Two Thirds Vote Aye]

Mornin' Guennie! It's going to be sunny and in the high 50's to low 60's until Wednesday evening.....snow coming then. Colorado Rocky Mountains have not moved to Canada with the liberals. They stayed right here in Bush Country! :))

[Iowa Granny]

Good Morning Sweetie!

[Peach]

And a very fine morning to read your essay, Chair. What fun it was to read!

[Miss Marple]

We must have a new postmaster at our local post office. I haven't been there in three years, but had to go there this morning to pick up a certified letter with our car title.

Three years ago the place was pretty spartan. Now they have all sorts of displays and knick-knacks for sale. Therre is a window with Disney stamps and stuffed Disney characters, all sorts of collectibles associated with stamps, and CHEERFUL WORKERS. The whole place must be under new management.

[Guenevere]

#26...OK, just checking, Thirds. LOL

Morning to you IowaGranny :)

[Guenevere]

#29...LOL, even our post office doesn't have Disney stuff :)

[Miss Marple]

Well, I felt like I was in an alternate universe. Three years ago, the most prominent decoration was a poster which said "It is a felony to assult a postal worker."

Oh...Spencer Abraham is resigning.

I'd like to call everyone's attention to a thread and the website to which it refers:

4th Annual Tree for the Troops

It's a cyber-tree with the decorations representing messages to the troops that one can leave at the site. No registration, no strings of any kind, apparently.

And then I would like to call your attention to the latest revision of the ATRW ping list. Please copy and use this newest version (especially if you use the list for pinging people to other threads) because someone has requested that their name be taken off.

If you would like to be added to or removed from the list, please let me know.

I am fearful of all these people leaving the Administration. The ones I WANT to leave are still there, ie: Ann Veneman

[ohioWfan]

Colin Powell just announced his resignation!

[kayak]

I agree with you about Christmas being rushed ... was in stores early last week where the Halloween candy and decorations were being replaced by the Christmas stuff. Thanksgiving pretty much gets shoved aside.

..... One notable exception ... the Cracker Barrel right down the street from our office (our home away from home for dinner all too often) has some really cute and/or pretty Thanksgiving items. They are getting out their Christmas stock, also, but have the Thanksgiving theme in the most prominent places.

Sorry to have inserted the Christmas trees in my #33 but I think exceptions can be made for our troops ... ;-)

[Miss Marple]

I hate to see him go. He was a good Secretary of State, despite all the carping from some around here.

However, I am sure he is burned out with all the stuff he has been involved with. I am grateful for his service.

[Miss Marple]

Is Ann Veneman not working out? I don't know a thing about Agriculture, so can't make a judgement.

We should have lots of interesting news over the next few months, what with nominations and confirmation hearings.

[kayak]

Well, we already have a revision to our newest revision of the Ping List.

Please use this very latest one, hot off the keyboard, when you use the list.

Molly the links are extra-great today. I'm thoroughly enjoying reading them. (And remaining faithful to my laundry duties while I enjoy them, LOL.)
