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!!

Still a lot of snow out there, though it has melted down from 20 1/2" of snowpak to 17". More melting due today.

Donna Brazile lectures members of the Criminal Party yesterday, telling them they had better listen to Al Sharpton.

The left is believing President Bush is making more allusions to faith in his speeches and is concerned about that.

And Canada says it will not join in a "solo" (non-UN authorized) attack on Iraq.

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

[Neets]

That would be you, not me, of course.

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

So what is today's troll warning level?

Threat level for today is PINK, for the pinko commie stooges who need to be slapped.

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

Ooops - I forgot to ping everyone. I was so intent on trying to get hold of someone at work to let them know I wasn't coming in that it slipped my mind.

[That is what happens when you only have two remaining brain cells.]

[Mr. Mulliner]

Neets did it already, Chair. Now when Pippin comes by to say hello, it will be a triple ping day.

Yellow it is

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

so it is as though he went from feeling well on Friday to feeling well on Tuesday, skipping the in between days.

As long as Daryl doesn't get too wrapped up in insisting on remembering those days, it might be just as well.

What you are saying overall is great news, though. I am glas Daryl is back out of the hospital. I will keep him in my prayers.

[Admin Moderator]

Did pink a few days ago. Today feels more yellow.

Snow plowing update...

VDOT overnight did finally get a plow up the hill, apparently - just saw a car drive by (the first one since Saturday).

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

Somehow I was thinking along the line of white with just the slightest bluish hue - for all of the gosh durn )*$#%(& snow on the ground.

But yellow sounds good.

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

We may want to rethink yellow...

BREAKING...

Moroccan Convicted in First Sept. 11 Trial - In Germany

Now this guy was found guilty on more than 3,000 counts of murder. But guess what his sentence is?

FOR OVER 3,000 COUNTS OF MURDER, MOUNIR EL MOTASSDEQ WAS SENTENCED BY A GERMAN COURT TO THE MAXIMUM TERM OF 15 YEARS.

Why do I feel the sentence is NO WHERE NEAR meeting the extent of the crime?

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

I have to get this out of my system, sorry in advance...

15 YEARS?!?!?!

That's it??????

15 lousy years and this guy is, on February 19, 2018, he'll be walking the streets again? A person who admitted associating with Al Qa'eda people (though he said he "believed" they would never do anything like blow up the WTC)? He's 28 now - he'll be able to breath free air and still be 43.

He will still very much be a threat to society at large at 43.

Besides, let's do the math. For every life he helped to snuff out (and by his conviction, he has been deemed to help out), he received under German law a grand total of 1.825 DAYS...

THAT'S RIGHT - DAYS!!!

... for each!

I cannot believe it. My mind simply cannot get around such a travesty of justice.

Thanks Chair, and each of you who continue to remember Daryl and family.

Here's a story that was sent to me this am. How appropriate for me... and Daryl. Perhaps others might receive a blessing from it as well.



There was a group of women in a Bible study on the book of Malachi. As they were studying chapter three, they came across verse three which says: "He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver."

This verse puzzled the women and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God.

One of the women offered to find out about the process of
refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible study. That week this woman called up a silver smith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest in silver beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver.

As she watched the silver smith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest so as to burn away all the impurities.

The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot -- then she thought again about the verse, that he sits "as a refiner and purifier of silver". She asked the silver smith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined. The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left even a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.

The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silver smith, "How do you know when the silver is fully refined?" He smiled at her and answered, "Oh, that's easy--when I see my image in it."


This story is especially meaningful to those of us who may be in the hottest part of the flame right now. To know that God has his eyes fixed on those he is refining and cannot be distracted is most comforting! Nothing that happens in your life goes unnoticed by the Father.....most comforting.

He is aware of all and guess what? He's on your side!!
