As ABC quietly slinks into submission at the feet of the Klinton thugs and congressional dumbocrats and edits "Path to 9/11" at their behest, one must wonder where, oh where, is Timmy "Chill Wind Blowing" Robbins??

If your child wants to know what a "hypocrite" is, just have them watch a lib for about 10 minutes.

I have had Rush on on the computer for my son this week. He has been home sick. He is even watching HGTV with me. He thinks he is a peace loving independent, but I raised him and I know better.

Apparently, the 'rats are still hyperventilating and whining over the yet-to-be-shown program. You've got to wonder what they are so afraid of...

I'd better go get the grill lighted-it is sprinkling just enough off and on to deter a small fire-there is no breeze, so the fire is not going to be ready for awhile once lighted, either...

We had sausage/bean rigatoni in pasta sauce, with a salad. I found these neat little spray bottles of wine spritz for the salad...it was delicious.

I've been out all day, away from TV, radio, computer, etc........I really don't want to have to turn the TV on at this point.....

A true FreeRepubalic killcow,
Makes the members sit up and say 'Oh Wow,'
And Hillary Duff,
Is pleasant enough,
Though her namesake inspires a chaste vow.

Those are good aren't they - we bought two flavors of that "spray dressing" this summer - some genius thought up that one!
