Mitch McConnell for Pres. 2016 and General of Counter-Terrorism for VP.
I thought you would be interested in this story I found on news.msn.com: US ambassador summoned by Germany over NSA spying ( http://news.msn.com/world/us-ambassador-summoned-by-germany-over-nsa-spying#tscptme, )
Wait a second? Didn’t Snowden first go to China? Where China and their reverse-technology, was granted the rights to reproduce the Grundig SW radio? I hear people in American jails, know how to increase the band-with of small transistor radio’s. What could China do with a Grundig or cell phone, like the Samsung knock-off.
Now didn’t Germany discredit our secrets, as found in the German newspaper?
As for France, just how long were they (like Australia in Afghanistan) going to provide there battalions, in the Syrian civil strife? Long enough to see the US weaponry as a Socialist Country? Then pull-out and leave us to boots on the ground?
Now: what about Switzerland and that $2,800.00 a month? Doesn’t that story sound familiar, as in the US $10 Million dollar theory?
What happened to our spy-plane brought down by China? If France and Germany are really worried about spying? Wouldn’t we infiltrate the Belgian Arms Race? I think they have enough to worry about, with the Saab software in Fighter Jets? Comprendee-Vous?
No. One Global Problem? Malnutrition.
That reminds me of my sister....
We were threatened with rain last night, but I don’t think it did. I slept uncomfortably, crowded by Shannon! The dog is leaving today, what a relief for the cats.
I need to get Kathleen up and sort some laundry, and then I’ll think about breakfast. A boy just told me we need more cereal, so I guess I’m going to Walmart later.
And the dot came back, the very next day...
LOL!
I went to a Quincianera celebration once, when I was 16, and thought I was going to dance my feet off to the ankles.
I don’t recall how late it lasted, but I do recall dancing. And dancing. And DANCING!
And it wasn’t even my party!
La Quinceanera was already looking exhausted at 8:00, but more people were still arriving! Punctuality just isn’t important to them, which is fine as long as everyone’s on the same page.
They were on time (1:50) for the church service, which was important. Father Gary was having a minor tizzy because he’d forgotten it was happening, and people were coming at 3:00 to decorate for Advent.
Poor Father Gary!
Did I tell you my rent went up? Again? It’s gone up because I’m getting a COLA “raise” on the next check, and the government wants that money back!
I sure hope I begin to get back to normal. I need to make sure I can do the errands on Tuesday without being so breathless I fall down.
And of all things, I think I’m developing an allergy to the birds...
Oh, no! (Comprehensively!)
Anoreth made us all watch “Top Gear” while she was here. Funny show.
{{HUGS}}
Thank You Sarge.
I love Top Gear! I try not to miss it. The guys are so funny together. Their chemistry is perfect.
It’s 38 degrees, and so far, it’s sunny, but that may change. I’m not going anywhere, anyway, but I hate gloomy days. I get so depressed.
Anoreth showed us an episode on Youtube in which they were “gardening” at some sports figure’s house. The guy shows up at home, and there’s an upside-down backhoe on the lawn and a building’s on fire. Hysterical.
We have 40s and Sunbeam.
Be careful kittahs. Red dots sometimes have triggers attached to barrels with magazines. Sometimes is better to leave the red dot alone or carry a bright light.
I have yet to see an episode of “Top Gear” that wasn’t funny, and most often they are side-splitting. The fact that I learn something every episode is beside the point. It’s a great show.
People grow up faster in the frontier, they have to.
If one thinks am a bit down today, one would be correct. Maybe tomorrow will be better and one is still allowed to pray.
Sometimes the official, in charge, after the flag flies does change the ruling and picks up the flag. Prayers for a picking up of the flag or someone, in the booth, deciding to add back one second. After viewing Alabama and Auburn yesterday, one knows one second can make all the difference. Please excuse the football analogy but one second decided by an official can make all the difference.
One second may not be enough time for three steps, mister.
But it’s usually enough for two.
