Practice makes perfect.....post on....
extra + for that!
i love brit more than you, obviously ; )
I think that Newsweek needs to have the s*** sued out of them by every family who lost a loved one as a result of their military-bashing lies. That is what would happen to Ford, GM et al if their product caused this to happen.
Their "Editor", Mark Whitaker, should be on a plane right now, flying over to those nations and apologising in person. Then (if he makes it back) he should go apologise to the President, the Joint Chiefs, and then an open letter to the troops. But somehow, I doubt he'll get around to it.
Brit and I share something very deep, very special.
(OK, even *I* got creeped out on that one)
well a hue and cry needs to be mounted so that they don't feel that they can just let this go.
There once was a woman licentious
with morals of lib'ral consensus
she put down her boot
and stepped on a Newt
then they kissed, and we ask where the sense is?
i bet he would like ME better though.... ; )
A+++ what IS going on there, does anyone know what newt is thinking?
See my #43-he needs to be sued, along with his liberal rag until his wallet is turned inside out-I wonder which family will be the first to hire a barracuda for the job?
Good Lord, woman, I hope so.
Did any of you Catch Col. Hunt on Fox last night blasting Newsweek..........I am really surprised he maintained enough composure to not use and forbidden words on the air. He was absolutely outrage.
I caught part of that-I wouldn't have been able to keep my cool...
no, i was engrossed in Stuck in the Suburbs on the Disney channel. xsbrownie went upstairs for her bath, the remote was across the room from me and i was stitching away, not even noticing that i was the only one in the room watching this teenybopperish show when xshub walked into the room and said ARE YOU WATCHING THIS...?
Isn't this a Friday sort of word? That runaway bride link: ick. Issues does not even begin to describe that woman. Seriesly, I knew a girl in college who was dating a guy from a different college, and he sort of "bragged" (who talks about this stuff, anyway) about their "pure" relationship and how they prayed together and stuff. Meanwhile, she was working her way up and down the guys' dorm hallways. Very skanky. Very Wilbanks.
He was impressive in his restraint - but you could tell just how furious he was.
That's funny.
yeah well i don't normally do fridays, as those are slippy days. to be honest, i sat down at my desk and that is the word that popped into my head unbidden. voila, WFTD. yes, she is a skank, doesn't seem to be a doubt about it.
wet towels? you want to hear what puts a strain on a marriage? xshub invited a family over to dinner at our house on Sat PM, behind my back, while i was out doing errands. he had never in his life done anything like it. i was so incredulous that all i could do was laugh.
