We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail! [President Bush]
Good morning!! Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!
At the NAA(L)CP conference, the Rev. Jesse Jackson labeled President Bush and AG Ashcroft as the "most threatening combination in our lifetime."
A Congressional panel has subpoenaed the records of Martha Stewart's broker.
And the President is pushing his plan of tough new penalties on corporation leaders who undertake corporate fraud.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
...Guennie is smiling again.....
....Guennie is happy....
...Guennie is riding away into the sunset singing...Happy Trails......
.....Guennie is tired of talking in the 3rd person......
Off to walk Cassie.
Great letter. Do you suppose some CEOs will use the my dog at it excuse?
Miss M: President Bush made me write this. HAR!
((((isb))))
Tator, thanks for clarifying the JC Watts retirement for me the other day.
Trying to get caught up from the week-end. Just amazed at the triumph of hubris over common sense that Eppers (?) displayed at the hearings yesterday when he jumped in to defend himself after pleading the fifth. Also tickled at the triumph of Grandma over chutzpah when I saw Jenna out fishing with Grandpa and Dad thereby providing the photo ops denied when she walked to the helicopter under cover the other day. LOL!
So - okay - hi, everyone. Happy news: the shy family is soon to be reunited on a full time basis as grampashy is moving here within the next week or two. I'd appreciate a wrapping of ATRW prayer as he drives across country alone. Thanks!
LOL! I thought the same thing, Miss Marple. I am invisioning many who work with my husband composing these even as we speak .... I also enjoy the thought that these CEOs have to justify their compensation ... still ... government seems to be getting ... bigger?!
This worries me ... another example of the few screwing it up for the many, maybe.
Miss Marple suffers
fools not lightly in the least
Truest of friends, she.
Unexpected strength
Guided you through those rough waters
Undaunted you are
What to say about
A woman who likes gardens
And big, loud ka-BOOMs?
Brain just rounded the back end of my property and coming up to the side of the garage ...
How was 97 received in the area?
We'll be getting to Syracuse less often, now. Smiles...Thanks for the prayers.
Mind took a curve and now is headed towards the vegetable garden ...
And, yes!!! *Prayers*, indeed, for safe travel ... and that your nest will finally be full again. *grins*
In my wacky brain ... it means ... Peals Of Laughter ... which seems to be even happier than LOL.
Oh, no, OneidaM ... that would be like me planting plastic flowers ... HAR!
I found a recipe for fresh tomato soup, which I am hoping you will walk me through ... when the time comes ... *grins*
And OF COURSE I'll walk ya through the soup toots.
You will notice if you read the speech that many of the things are not government controlled. He is suggesting that shareholders require it, not mandating it (my letter has a bit of poetic license).
You know, when you work for a company you usually have to fill out one of those dratted personnel forms before your review, rating yourself on your performance and what areas you need to improve upon. I am thinking this is a good thing for the CEO's to have to write these letters.
Dear Disney Shareholder,
Well, here in the Magic Kingdom we have been workiing hard at expanding our market. Although the Gay Pride Day didn't bring us quite the crowds we anticipated, our next cartoon in which we re-tell The Bible from a space alien viewpoint is sure to win back those Christians who are boycotting us in their misguided way.We have solved the labor problem at Euro Disney by agreeing to hire unemployed immigrants that France has been having trouble placing. We will be modifying Sleeping Beuty's Castle into a minaret shape in order to accomodate our cultural diversity.
All in all, although we have had a rocky year, it seems that we are turning the corner. In an effort to further streamline our operation, shareholders are being asked to forego their courtesy passes to the Magic Kingdom this year, which will save us a bit on postage and personnel. I am sure you will be willing to make this sacrifice.
New projects for the coming year include a remake of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" with live characters; our people feel it would be appropriate to set it in Washington, DC.
All in all, this has been a satisfying year, and I am sure you won't mind approving my salary of $15 million annually, plus bonuses, stock options, private jet, bodyguards, and a masseuse.
Sincerely,
Michael Eisner.
PS: Paul O'Neill and John Ashcroft want me to say hello.
I am sorry that there is no letter to explain my compensation as you requested. I phoned it in to my secretary, but she seems to have lost it.
While I busy myself writing it, please go to my website and read about how to make a George Bush voodoo doll from potpourri and pine needles. It's a good thing.
Sincerely,
Martha Stewart
