AMERICA - The Right Way!! (Day 685) [Remember the Trade Center!!]
Various News Sources and FReepers | December 6, 2002 | All of Us

Posted on 12/06/2002 4:50:00 AM PST by Chairman_December_19th_Society

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 in 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!!

Now, the cleanup. More than 1.5 million people remain without electricity in North Carolina this morning.

Algore visited China recently, and it is believed he was paid to speak at a communist government-linked think tank. People could pay 50,000 yuan to get their picture taken with Algore, or 100,000 yuan to buy conference sponsorship packages.

Algore claims he was paid by BusinessWeek to attend the event: "I can tell you specifically our contract says DnmStrategies for BusinessWeek," says Jano Cabrera, spokesman for Algore, as reported by Drudge.

Drudge also reports that Nancy Sheed, spokeswoman for BusinessWeek, says: "This was not an official BusinessWeek-sponsored event. We did not pay any of the participants in the event. We did not pay any of the speakers at the event. BusinessWeek was also not aware that anybody had been invited on behalf of BusinessWeek to speak at the event."

Algore also attended an informal lunch on November 18 with approximately 30 members of the Asia society, sponsored by Hong Kong chairman Mr. Chan. Chan was an independent director of ENRON. Algore knew of Chan's relationship with ENRON because a source said he "told him before we went into the lunch."

Algore may be the master of reinvention, but he does not seem to have reinvented his pechant for Chinese money.

For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.

A chocolate cigar, if you don't mind.:)

That was fun. I learned a lot about Tennessee. Have you ever heard of a town called Soddy Daisy? That was my favorite.:)

I'm surprised at how many towns share names with towns in Wisconsin............Madison, Oneida, and Pulaski, to name a few.

Nothing beats Rolling Stone-cover Algore.

Except maybe Soggy Under-arms Algore.

Who do the Saints play this weekend?

Haven't heard of Soddy Daisy. We have very near us a Bell Buckle and a Wartrace.

Do you have a Cambridge, Wisconsin? I grew up in a small town called Cambridge and think I once heard that there are around 40 states that have a Cambridge.

One of our main rivals, another town in our county, was Oxford.

The Ravens. In Baltimore. It depends on which version of the Saints shows up: the one that plays like their life depends on it, or the one who likes to play down to their competition. Hopefully, it's the former, because the defense is finally starting to come around.

Yes, there is a Cambridge, Wisconsin.

I wonder how many Green Bays there are in the U.S......

The Titans lost to the Ravens two weeks ago. It took just about the worst performance by Steve McNair and we still came up just one point short of beating them. The Saints should roll!

Sister Bay is up in Door County, about an hour's drive from here. Maybe a bit more. Beautiful area.

I'm going to type this up and take it to my mom, now. Thanks for your help. I now have 42 clues. My mom had started out with 22 so we've added quite a bit.

The Saints should roll!

They also should have rolled against Detroit, twice against Atlanta, and Cleveland two weeks ago. They have an amazing knack for tanking in games that should be easy wins. I don't know if it's the players going in expecting to win, or if Haslett just doesn't get them mentally prepared, but they always have a tough time against teams they should blow out. They have no trouble beating good teams(the 49ers, Pack, Steelers, and most assuredly the Bucs will attest to that), but they just can't seem to take care of business in the gimme games.

I just finished making cinnamon rolls, and stuck them in the freezer before they rose again. I'll take them with me in the morning, and they will thaw and rise on the drive over. When I get to the unit, I'll preheat the oven for 30 minutes, and they will be ready to pop in and we'll have fresh, hot, home-made rolls to go with my home-roasted Tres Rios Costa-Rican coffee.

Some will say that I'm a suck-up. Some will realize that I'm just obsessive about feeding people. grin!

.....sigh......fresh hot cinnamon rolls.......that sounds SOOOOOOO good............

I ordered a bunch of stuff from British Gourmet; it arrived today; a couple of different cheeses to go with Christmas dinner, some Double Devon Cream, some tea biscuits, chocolates, ginger beer, and some strange concoction I'm drinking right now: Dandelion and burdock; it's a soft drink; not too bad. Also some little candies & stuff for the dinner, including the cutest things I've ever seen: sugar mice! They're about 2 inches long, pink ones and white ones, on sticks. And they look just like little mice! Those Brits.......

I have tears in my eyes from laughing so much. I especially loved the Kangaroo (am sending that to a buddy from Singapore), the SHCOOL sign, and the movie line-up.

Thanks for a great laugh!

Do you have crackers? Those are those things you pop open and they have a hat, prize, and joke inside.

We have them every year. My mother loves them!
