Welcome back! (cue welcome back kotter music) No wifi at the rehab place? Bummer. And yes, there are those that have it worse.

Cloudy, looks like rain, and 64-I love days like this-they are perfect for wandering in deep thought in the deep woods...

Obama’s minions are mistaken
In their opinion of “the folks’
Our dark humor isn’t raillery,
We aren’t laughing at their jokes

We only think they are funny
Because they are clueless, too-
They never learn how to watch
For that other falling shoe

Unfortunately, there’s a problem,
As the press dishes out the dirt-
When the clueless ignore terror
People end up dead and hurt...

Thank you! They don’t have a sense of humor-they just get offended and underestimate others-that’s what makes them funny in a RMFE way...

I heard about the terrorist mom-saw her on TV, too-her voice could strip the finish off furniture-it made my teeth itch.

She’s a psycho bitch all right-either she’s lying with every whining word, or she’s Cleopatra, queen of denial-I’ll bet she had a hand in the little darlings becoming radicals, too.

There was wifi, but I was busy trying to get well and to meet all of their schedules. I finally sent my computer home. I never took it out of the case.
