Dragons I could handle. I'm surrounded by orcs.
Here is a link to my Webshots page... Pictures from today are in the Apache Renegade albums at the bottom of my page.
Good Evening Bear!
At church this morning, my six year old had an assignment where he had to fill out a "I promise to..." card, with something he promises to do. He told the teacher he wanted to put "I promise to get Osama Bin Laden" and he wanted to draw a "WANTED" poster underneath it! ROFLOL!
The teachers encouraged him to put "I promise to help my dad in the yard." instead, but they took me aside and told me about it. They were just laughing!
Close to calling it a night here.. tomorrow is a Seattle day :~( Have a good night and 'morrow if I don't chat with you more in the morning!
I heard that there is going to be a TTT trailer/commercial during the awards show also... I am afraid the MTV awards will be a must see in my house!
That is Outstanding!! I'll have to remember to watch it at my sister's house on Thurs.!
I am NOT the world's biggest grump! The second biggest, maybe.
I think that is the first time anyone said that. Took a look at that thread, that guy needs psychiatric help.
Are the hobbits going to be around today or have they all turned into nighttime only vampire hobbits?
Hi Corin, Hi OT - Hullo! - Good Morning!
Ugh - Seattle Day :~\ for me.
I'll be in and out all day today, in between tasks at work. I have a desk I think that needs cleaning off in a bad sort of way.
On a side note, I bought a DVD player on Friday, for my daughter's curriculum next year August 6th never entered my mind.......really! ;^). She will be in 7th grade this September so my wife and I decided to go with the Abeka video classes for her.
We watched Pearl Harbor Saturday night. I actually thought it was very good. My wife was ready to re-nuke Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I got to thinking about America's reaction after Pearl Harbor compared with our reaction after 9-11. I don't think we have reacted anywhere near as strongly as we reacted after Pearl Harbor. After Pearl Harbor we geared up and went after the people that did this and did not stop until we had totally defeated them.
After 9-11 we were urged to go out and buy a new car or take a vacation (THAT will show those terrorist scum). Then months later we went and invaded(?) a fourth (fifth?) world country.
Today, we are sitting and cowering and waiting for the next terrorist hit on our interests. I believe that our response should have been overwhelming. We started out well but have not pressed our advantage. These terrorists should be afraid to harm our country. Instead of infringing on OUR rights and liberties we should be infringing on the rights and liberties and lives of those who would want to do something like 9-11 to our country.
All I have to say is that it is probably a good thing that I am not the President.
WHOA! where did THAT come from? Sorry for unloading a rant on everyone this fine morning. I think I shall get a cup of coffee to calm myself down.

We only have the life that was given to us. I am going to make the best of mine.
Why HOTD, that sounds positively Gandalfian. ;^) Very good advice for all of us.

Well, here's a neat DVD player anyway, huh?
