Enjoy your walk!
The thread was the only saving grace of that debacle.
Wayne Brady, peeeewww, he stunk to high heaven. At least last year the football player host (can't remember his name) was the highlight of the show. All his mumbling and non-command of the English language was most entertaining!
MELANIE Griffith made headlines in 2000 when she vowed to smoke pot with her son, Alexander, if he wanted to try it. And just two years later, she is ruing her decision.
"I said that if my son wanted to smoke pot, I would smoke it with him," Griffith told More magazine about Alexander, 17, her son by Steven Bauer. "I did - and it backfired. He liked it. Now hes on the [12-step] program."
"My thinking was that it would be better for him to do it at home than to go out in the street and get something that would kill him. I thought it was a good idea, but ultimately, it wasnt." full story at Page Six.
Also from Page Six, a sighting of CHELSEA Clinton and Ian Klaus cozily catching a performance of "Hairspray," then dining at Angus McIndoe with Democratic operative Liz Robbins. Wonder what that's all about.
YIKES!......

Probably won't hit us but will make Monday morning a rainy pain with getting kids to school and that trip to my 9:00 dental appt. lots of fun.
On Friday, I brought those of you who now say we should just leave Saddam alone some of the most hawkish statements you've ever heard on Iraq. Did they come from the Bush White House in 2002? No, they came from our so-called allies Canada, France and Germany in February of 1998.
You can read the statements of these three nations using this link, and then read the statements from many of our other now-wimpy-then-wise allies in the full State Department transcript. We've already documented Bill Clinton and his administration saying the same things about Iraq and Saddam Hussein back in 1998 that were said in 1990-91 and that are being said by the current administration.
We've documented how Democrats like Tom Daschle were tripping over each other to beat the war drum back then. Now we see the truth: these liberals, as well as the ones in Europe and north in Canada, just went along with the rhetoric because they knew it was BS. On February 19,1998, Prime Minister Jean Chretien of Canada said, "If we do not act, if we do not stand up to Saddam, that will encourage him to commit other atrocities." Today, he's Saddam's best friend in North America simply by refusing to help stop him.
Even the WashPost Editorials have been consistent, remarkably enough.
The re-cap: Clintoon wanted to get rid of Saddam, the Euro-weenies said, YEAH! Get rid of Saddam! So clintoon lobs a few missiles and problem solved! But now there's a real leader in the White House they know their goose is cooked. They will actually have to DO something about this menace Saddam. This explains all the whinning, hand wringing and down right cowardice.
With clintoon in office they all knew he'd never really do anything, so did Saddam.
Those days are so over!
Do you know if this particular article has been posted as its own thread?
I have looked in vain and only found some short threads on the topic from the AP, but this linked article that you have provided has much more information.
Thank you very much!
This is not a good thing folks - not good at all.

I agree so much with you, JL! I don't know how to stop it though. One day we'll all be living on a govt reservation.
