Hmmm.... Either a hackysak or one of the bean bags from the "Toss Across" game I had back in the 70's.

Annie - they probably work up to size C. I'm not keen on the idea of gluing up the pups, though. I'd have to take HLL's route.

Gore alleged spots that need more protection are exactly the spots we're being told that the terrorists are aiming for now. So when they get hit, Al can pat himself on the back and say "I told you so." Not that it takes any prescience on his part to figure out those are targets.

It looks like they rated his genital area. I'd give it about a 3.So he's not playing billiards with an eight ball in the corner pocket?

LOL - and the lady's name is Sultan!
You really should consider a relocation, DS; your state is going to slide into the ocean, or something else tragic.

Thanks for the relief of a Laura photo after you put up that frightful horror picture of the-man-who-won-the-popular-vote-in-2000!
I love THIS photo of Laura (at the same event):
A real lady.

Remember those hideous album covers someone put up a few weeks ago?
Well, Dave Barry went one farther and found the Worst Swedish Album Covers...whattahoot!
It's hard to pick a fave, but THIS one looks like they took a cue from the bra discussion above....

Origins of Veteran's Day:
In 1921, an unknown World War I American soldier was buried in Arlington National Cemetery. This site, on a hillside overlooking the Potomac River and the city of Washington, became the focal point of reverence for America's veterans.
Similar ceremonies occurred earlier in England and France, where an unknown soldier was buried in each nation's highest place of honor (in England, Westminster Abbey; in France, the Arc de Triomphe). These memorial gestures all took place on November 11, giving universal recognition to the celebrated ending of World War I fighting at 11 a.m., November 11, 1918 (the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month). The day became known as "Armistice Day".
Armistice Day officially received its name in America in 1926 through a Congressional resolution. It became a national holidiay 12 years later by similar Congressional action. If the idealistic hope had been realized that World War I was "the War to end all Wars," November 11 might still be called Armistice Day. But only a few years after the holiday was proclaimed, war broke out in Europe. Sixteen and one-half million Americans took part. Four hundred seven thousand of them died in service, more than 292,000 in battle.
Armistice Day Changed To Honor All Veterans
Realizing that peace was equally preserved by veterans of WW II and Korea, Congress was requested to make this day an occasion to honor those who have served America in all wars. In 1954 President Eisenhower signed a bill proclaiming November 11 as Veterans Day.
On Memorial Day 1958, two more unidentified American war dead were brought from overseas and interred in the plaza beside the unknown soldier of World War I. One was killed in World War II, the other in the Korean War. In 1973, a law passed providing interment of an unknown American from the Vietnam War, but none was found for several years. In 1984, an unknown serviceman from that conflict was placed alongside the others. To honor these men, symbolic of all Americans who gave their lives in all wars, an Army honor guard, The 3d U.S. Infantry (The Old Guard), keeps day and night vigil.
A law passed in 1968 changed the national commemoration of Veterans Day to the fourth Monday in October. It soon became apparent, however, that November 11 was a date of historic significance to many Americans. Therefore, in 1978 Congress returned the observance to its traditional date.
National Ceremonies Held at Arlington
The focal point for official, national ceremonies for Veterans Day continues to be the memorial amphitheater built around the Tomb of the Unknowns. At 11 a.m. on November 11, a combined color guard representing all military services executes "Present Arms" at the tomb. The nation's tribute to its war dead is symbolized by the laying of a presidential wreath. The bugler plays "taps." The rest of the ceremony takes place in the amphitheater.
Every year the President of the United States urges All Americans to honor the commitment of our Veterans through appropriate public ceremonies.

I loved listening to that album when I was about 4 or 5, it was part of my grandparent's extensive record collection. At that time I remember thinking "Why is that lady covered in shaving cream?"
