I'm back! Gosh I missed you guys!!! :-) I had no one but my Mom and Dad to talk politics. Sheesh. Next time, I'm just gonna have to rent out a condo that will fit all of us in it. ;-) Let's just say this: 10 people in a 2BR/2BA condo is not comfy. I slept on the floor, I slept on the fold out couch (I think the mattress on that was made out of seashells from the beach), I slept in the back bedroom with the baby and my sister. I slept on the deck by the pool (during the day of course!) and I swear that was the best nap I had the whole time I was there! Although it came to an abrupt end when Cammysmom decided to wake me UP to tell me that I had been SLEEPING for a 1/2 hour. What is up with that? ;-)

The week was a quiet one, the kids spent most of the time at the pool. Mark managed to hook up with some 18 and 19 yr olds and Michael found a couple of boys to hang around with who had all come to the conclusion that girls were "Too bossy and talk too much! And they have cooties!" One day we saw about 10 or more dolphins swimming about 50-60 yards offshore...at first, some people from up NORTH (no offense to youse guys) thought they were sharks because of their fins only to find out after grabbing their kids and running and shreiking from the Atlantic Ocean to the nearest Lifeguard stand that dolphins in general do not eat people. We had jellyfish all day Tuesday; I think I was the only one (besides the boys) that did not get stung. Then, on Wednesday, we had a big surf from the storm system named "Cristobal", which made it fun for the locals on their surfboards but not for the people who kept trying to get past the waves, only to be knocked down again and again and again. Unfortunately, the rest of the week the beach had a strong riptide/current and undertow, and after I realized that Mark and I had drifted quite a ways from the beach we were at, I got us out of the water and we never did go back in again. I think that if I had stayed in I might be in Cuba by now. No, actually, the sharks would have eaten me. ;-)

Oneida....prayers being said for you (((hugs))). Hope things work out for you. Hang in there, babe. ;-)

I heard on MSNBC this morning that BILL CLINTON helped WRITE that speech (if that's what you want to call it) given by Terry McAullife the other night/day. I read most of the transcript of his speech and I could not believe that people could be so very viscious. I always knew he was a jerk, but I guess I didn't give him enough credit...he's also a scum sucking dipwad. However, I noticed today in our local paper in "Letters to the Editor" that the American people were not happy about it. This even included DEMOCRATS who said it was a disgusting and revolting speech. Hmmmm. Somehow I think that this will come into play in November. (I can dream, right?)

Molly....check your FreepMail. :-)

Chairman.....you are now driving to Jax to look at property and then back up north again and then west?????? Good luck! You will need it! ;-)

Hey Kehoe...it's the BUCS vs. the FINS tonight. I even have a "Chuckie" doll all dressed up in Bucs stuff..:-)

The kids went back to school today....I can hardly believe it. Seems like they just got out yesterday. The top of Michael's head is now up to my chin. I am seriously thinking that I may have to have Dog UPS me a booster seat by the time he's 10. Or perhaps a stepladder.

Oh yeah, one more very important thing: My brother and his wife (who, btw, got married on September 11th, 1999) told us all on Sunday night that they are expecting their first baby in April! My brother is so excited about becoming a Daddy! Although, he's a little nervous because his sister-in-law had twins last year, and her grandfather was a twin. They will both be anxiously awaiting the first sonogram. :-)

I think that's all I have for now....

Well, considering the X42 and mcawful's whole personas are revolting and disgusting, it is not unexpected that anything they produce will also be both revolting and disgusting. These people are lower than whale poop on the bottom of the ocean (and a whole lot less useful!)

I truly hope this comes back to bite them like the rabid RATs they are...

The American people are no where near as naive and dumb as they think/hope they are.

Welcome back! That doesn't surprise me about the speech. One thing I noticed, after looking at the transcript, was that McAuliffe had borrowed whole phrases from President Bush's convention acceptance speech. This was an effort to needle Bush, or I should say, bait him.

I can just see UOX42 gloating as he gives McAuliffe the speech, saying "Heheheh. This'll really get that frat boy."

It is my personal opinion that the Dope from Hope Who Loves to Grope (thanks W.) is consumed with jealousy of the man who replaced him. He cannot stand the President's close family and KNOWN, repectable father, his much beloved mother, his loyal wife, his two beautiful daughters, his close siblings who are achievers in their own right...

Every time he sees President Bush he is reminded of all the things he is NOT, including PRESIDENT.

Armchair psychology moment now over.
