LOL, thanks for the high grade despite the tardiness… Fighting against the State takes a lot of time :-|
The real issue is not that he is not good at sports—I’m not either.
The real issue is—why are we taxpayers asked to pay for so many golf outings, when it benefits us not one bit? And—to add insult to injury—despite ALL those rounds of golf at our expense, obama is still a duffer!!!!
Very cool.
Bread? Very cool!
A++
I can’t forgive the guy for spelling “heroes” as “hero’s.”
That looks amazing - let us know if you actually do it!
Yes, bread.
I used to make a Teddy Bear bread. Kids loved it.
LMAO. Missed 20 out of 22 shots. I do better than that.
Oh, then you have talent - you can probably do this one!
I saw your girl, MaryLou Retton on tv tonight - her daughter, McKenna Kelley, is a gymnast and signed with LSU for college! She looks a lot like her Mommy!
I wondered what those girls would turn out like. I mean, they have the Mary Lou gene’s sure - but do you still get gymnasts when you mix that with quarterback genes? Interesting...love that she’s still news though!
They were highlighting three girls from a local trainer who were going to three different Universities. Mary Lou was very proud! LSU isn’t very far from Houston so it is a good fit for their family as well.
Lol
Years ago there was the story of the cute, petite cheerleader who married the halfback from college. They had TWO children.
Yup, you guessed it. The boy turned out like "mom" and the girl was built like "dad." NOT fair.
