Poor baby...
I went to sleep in the lazyboy again.

Is that really your dog! My brother and wife have a darling yorkie named Starla. They worship that dog. I will send you a picture if I can think of it. If I don’t, remind me...LOL!

Re: those teeth. One afternoon, my husband came in with some of those teeth in his mouth. It was when they first hit the market and he got real close like he was gonna kiss me and then gave me that big smile with those teeth and I nearly died laughing. He loved doing that crazy stuff. He has been in Heaven 5 years now. I hope he’s still having fun pulling jokes. LOL~~~I bet he is!!

Naw....not really my dog but a fun pic Yorkie sent me when My Daisy Doy lost a few of her teeth.

Here is a pic of my dog.....she loves to sit up straight & look out the window.

I look forward to the pic of Starla.

Would you believe these are actually pacifiers!

It sounds like your husband had a great sense of humor & love for life JC...bet he's making people smile in heaven too! *hugs*

Cute picture! I am partial to piglets. Having raised many farm animals in my youth, the piglet still is my favorite. A 10 on the cutie scale. The little grunty and squealy noises they make are neat too. I helped my dad deliver piglets a few times. What a memorable experience. That was over 30 years ago, still remember it well.

Thanks, TCP.

I thought that picture was so cute. Never been around pigs much but I understand they are very intelligent.

First, your dog is so cute! The reason I asked about the first dog is, I thought you might have posed it for a picture, but it would be hard to do. Your pictures below are wild and crazy!

We shouldn’t be waiting to march on DC, we should have been there weeks ago and raising hell as freedoms were take from us and the economic future of this country was destroyed before our eyes.

Once again I'll say a big amen!

Iranian women have more courage than the average "American male".   They are willing to die for liberty while we let socialist take our liberty.   With the exception of our troops, who can't save us from ourselves, are we still the "home of the brave"?    Not so much, anymore.

P.S. on this pic again! I just read the last line of your post and I could not believe they were actually pacifiers. I am not sure whether I would have purchased one of those for either of my babies...LOL! For a little joke inside the house, maybe, but not out in public....LOL!

I've got more.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Reform means beneficial change, or sometimes, more specifically, reversion to a pure original state.

Reform is generally distinguished from revolution. The latter means basic or radical change; whereas reform may be no more than fine tuning, or at most redressing serious wrongs without altering the fundamentals of the system. Reform seeks to improve the system as it stands, never to overthrow it wholesale.

I think the Democrats are proposing healthcare revolution that they are calling healthcare reform.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Fascism, ... , comprises a radical and authoritarian nationalist political ideology and a corporatist economic ideology.

In the economic sphere, many fascist leaders have claimed to support a "Third Way" in economic policy, which they believed superior to both the rampant individualism of unrestrained capitalism and the severe control of state communism. This was to be achieved by a form of government control over business and labor (called "the corporate state" by Mussolini).

Liberal Democrats are quick to call conservatives fascist yet it is they that engage in fascist economic policies.

From Little Big Politician:

Republicans who have affairs with women are thrown under the bus.    But, Democrats can copulate with other men and still remain in office, which makes them strange to me.    My Democrat Representative claims that he doesn't and that's why I call him "Doesn't Like Hombres".    Of course he's lying.

Of course, Grandfather.

Chimp Eden
If the Lord delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us. —Numbers 14:8

Eugene Cussons rescues chimpanzees. Orphaned by those in the business of bush-meat trade and taken from the jungle as infants, many have lived their entire lives confined in a space smaller than a prison cell. When Cussons arrives to take them to the game reserve he calls “Chimp Eden,” he often finds them hostile and untrusting.

“These chimps don’t realize that I am one of the good guys,” Cussons says. When he tries to put them into a smaller crate for the trip to their new home, they put up quite a fight. “They don’t know that I’m going to take them back to Chimp Eden and give them a life so much better.”

On a much grander scale, God’s offer to liberate us from the slavery of sin is often met with resistance. When He rescued the children of Israel from Egypt, God took them through difficult places that caused them to doubt His good intentions. “Would it not be better for us to return to Egypt?” they cried (Num. 14:3).

On our journey of faith, there are times when the “freedom” of sin that we left behind is more appealing than the restrictions of faith that lie ahead. We must trust the protective boundaries found in God’s Word as the only way to get to the place of ultimate freedom.

Sin’s lure may look like freedom
But in its grip we’re bound;
It’s when we’re bound to Jesus
Real freedom will be found. —D. De Haan

Obedience to God is the key to freedom.

Bible in One Year: Job 3-4; Acts 7:44-60

Those are great, fewz! They all hit the nail on the head! I love Wikipedia! I go there a lot for a variety of information! (This is frivolous and beside the point, but Barbara Walters will be 80 in September, who woulda ‘thunk’ it? Wikipedia has it..LOL!) Wonder how many nips and tucks she’s had?

Now back to serious politics from you!
