I got warmed, but not warned.......
:-)
Well, dang, that was last week!
Try to keep up with us, Nully the tortoise!
BTW, what did I say?
*wracking brain*
Sixty-eight teams. Thirty-four bowl games. Eighteen days. One national champion. Thats sick. LOL Would you say this bowl thing is out of control? So whats the most and least attractive matchups? After the BCS Championship Bowl $17M pay out the Capital One Bowl offers the next best pay day but how viewable is the LSU vs Penn State matchup? Mike Huguenin the College Football Editor at Rivals.com has some thoughts on that.... well, he has 34 thoughts on all that. LOL
Lol! Okay, I think I got it now...:)
Unless you were, as I was, trapped on I-12 north of Saintsville.
Some nearby towns got a good bit more than us and it lingered for several hours. :) It was an event! LOL
How good to see you. I think sharky is also around here somewhere.
By the way, on my recent foray into your area, I was pulled over by a member of local law enforcement who thought it fitting and proper that I contribute to his parish as compensation for my rather hasty journey. Ouch.
Okay, Nully, man up - Sacremento is getting snow tonight aparently and yes I know they are quite north of you but with this very UNpredictable weather, you never know. You could get some any day soon. We have -16 and NO snow!! I like it because the sun is shining and yeah it’s nippy but at least we aren’t plowing through snow. I’m happy. I hope my decorative bushes are. I need to get them mulched. This came on very suddenly and they don’t like that. Uggghh!! CO
Um hmm - you don’t mean it?? You were speeding???? For shame catpuppy!! CO
LOL Well, we thank you for your generous donation.
Speeding? Never. It must have been a malfunctioning radar or something. Maybe my generous contribution can be used to repair it. I wonder if my “gift” is tax deductible?
LOL
You're quite welcome. I did attempt to subvert justice by mentioning that I was a personal friend of an LSU fan (you) but he seemed disinterested. Perhaps he was an impostor, merely pretending to be a Louisiana copper.
FOFLOL hrrrumph! What a humorless so-and-so he was!
LOL, you rascal - I doubt that your “gift” is tax deductible but your extra CO2 emissions are a big sin ya know. EIIIII, What a crock. Hope you are doing well in that very Hoooomid Florida!! CO
Obama wanted non-religious Christmas?
Todd Starnes, blog, 7 December 2009
President Obama and the First Family were planning a non-religious Christmas, according to Social Secretary Desiree Rogers. Ms. Rogers reportedly told a gathering of former social secretaries that the Obamas did not intend on putting the Nativity scene on display a longtime East Room tradition.
The account was reported in the Fashion and Style section of The New York Times. The White House confirmed to the Times that there had been internal discussions about making Christmas more inclusive but in the end tradition won out and the Nativity scene is once again in its traditional East Room spot.
I just received an email response from the White House for comment. Heres what the First Ladys office says:
It has been a part of White House Christmas decorations in the past, it is on display in the East Room for all to enjoy and it will continue to be a part of White House Christmas decorations moving forward.-snip-
There is more on this subject
Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League, accused the president of trying to neuter Christmas.
Unlike almost all Americansincluding atheiststhe Obamas do not give their children Christmas gifts. We know this because Barack bragged about this last year to People magazine. So it should come as no big surprise that he and his wife would like to neuterChristmas in the White House. Thats their natural stepto ban the public display of Christian symbols. Have any doubts? Last April, Georgetown University was ordered to put a drape over the name of Jesus as a condition of the president speaking there.
If the Obamas want to deprive their children of celebrating Christmas, that is their business. It is the business of the public to hold them accountable for the way they celebrate Christmas in the White House. We know one thing for sure: no other administration ever entertained internal discussions on whether to display a nativity scene in the White House.
However the punk, the gargoyle and their brood chose to celebrate in the upstairs private quarters is their business but they seem to think they can do whatever they please with the public rooms as well. I read they'll spend ten days in Hawaii during Christmas and New Years. They sure are stomping in some high cotton courtesy of taxpayers. How many vacations have they taken this year? s
Um I’m not quite sure about you yet Darks!! You really would be interesting to meet I’m sure. CO
I’ve come to despise them all and am in favor of term limits for every branch. No more than three 2 year terms for congressmen and only one 6 year term for the senate. Elective office ought not be a permanent career.
