Various News Sources & Freepers | Aug. 17, 2002 | All of Us

[Molly Pitcher]

Good morning everyone!

In national news, the President continues, much to the media's annoyance, his Crawford, Texas, vacation.

Bush says he's listening to differing voices on the Iraq question. [Presumably the media feels reassured about this...]

Baseball players have set Aug. 30 as strike day if significant progress with the team owners hasn't been achieved by then.

Locally, more rain yesterday for our parched area, and

a police officer, shot and killed in the line of duty, was buried with moving tributes and ceremony on Friday.

[Mr. Mulliner]

Well, I finished my book last nite (Hong Kong, by Stephen Coonts), because I got a new book: Red Rabbit by Tom Clancy!

Related to the Killer Rabbit?

[Mr. Mulliner]

Hey Raven, thanks for posting that picture. Since I live just southeast of the star, it's something I can use sometimes too.

[Bitwhacker]

Yes! But you must first use....The Holy Hand Grenade!!

[Mr. Mulliner]

Baseball fans here should read this excellent, information-packed and eye-opening essay about MLB. It's written by our own Blue's Duke who is an extremely knowledgeable baseball fan who also writes well. The guy is really a treasure to have here at FR, someone you can ask about anything baseball related and expect a very informed answer.

GAG A MAGGOT TIME: I see that great military expert, Susan Sarandon, is now giving her advice. Good Heavens!!!!

[Neets]

Ohyes...Susan Sarandan...she of course has a resume FULL of qualifying credentials to qualify as a militay expert.....BARFFFFFFFFFFFf

[Miss Marple]

LOL! Susan Estrich is on pontificating about Iraq. Please, spare me!

I weeded two flower beds and filled a trash can (this is why my neighbors are happy). I haven't been able to do the front beds with the kids here, as I don't want them out in the front yard where the younger one might stray into the road.

It started to drizzle, so I came in and despite being eager to sit down, I went straight in and took a very long shower, scrubbing really hard, because of my fear of the scourge of the Midwest: CHIGGERS.

Misty drizzle now...I hope we get a soaking rain, which is what we really need.

[kassie]

Why do they give her and her kind air time?? She is such an air head, liberal.

[Utah Girl]

OK, so how did the guy get into the "secret room" without a door?

[kayak]

JohnHuang2 has put in his 2 cents worth (really worth a million dollars!) on the subject of all the great military minds weighing in on the prospect of war with Irag. It's a wonderful read!

Bush defends planning on Iraq [Don't know what to do about Iraq? Read on.]

[Dog]

Afternoon everyone.

This article...... White House Sleepovers.. has me seeing purple. We endured 8 years of X42 using the White House as MOTEL 6 with NO MEDIA COVERAGE. Today AP has done a study of the 160 family and friends who stayed overnite in the Bush White House..... they have found 6!!!!!!!! who GAVE MONEY to President Bush's campaign.

I hate the media!!!!!!!

I HATE THE MEDIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Miss Marple]

Hi, Dog! I pinged you to the article I linked earlier this morning!

Yes, I noticed that stupid article. In addition, the 6 who were donors were also long-time friends of the President, having gone to college or in one case GRADE SCHOOL with him. Bah!

[Dog]

Latest in the Saga of Martha Stewart and that little misunderstanding of hers....:-)

Seems the FEDS were at Merril Lynch searching the offices of her stockbroker and his asst.

Seems they carted off a few boxes of evidence...

I want a perp walk.....

[Mr. Mulliner]

Oh, that was excellent! Thanks for that link, Kayak!

[The Raven]

The existing entrane door to sthe secret room was from the garage.....I'm putting an interior door - connecting to the house.

[Dog]

Well it seems the great minds of the American media ......have figured out the PLAN....hehe!

Leaks might be part of the Government's war plan......:-)

[tillacum]

Nita, have you lost your weekends? Uh, oh, you're advancing into my time in life.

[Mr. Mulliner]

Alright, who killed the thread?

[JRandomFreeper]

My hair is cut, and I'm back to the house for the rest of the day. All I have to do now, is rip out the built-in pantry, dress the spot it was in so it looks pretty, and cook a meal for all of my siblings. Should be easy enough. LOL!
