It took a while to get to work. LOL! I do remember some of his speech. He talked about what he's done for the country. He also focused on a lot of issues that Iowans are concerned about...like farming and ethanol.

Cheney wasn't with. Neither was Laura or their daughters. It was just the president.

LOL! No, this is definitely not a pillow-pooping squirrel.......I can't vouch for the squirrel that Cyborg brought though. ;-)

BTW, what is difference between a squirrel and a chipmunk? Is there a difference?

Evening all.

By The Sea

Why does the sea moan evermore?
Shut out from heaven it makes its moan,
It frets against the boundary shore;
All earth's full rivers cannot fill
The sea, that drinking thirsteth still.

Sheer miracles of loveliness
Lie hid in its unlooked-on bed:
Anemones, salt, passionless,
Blow flower-like; just enough alive
To blow and multiply and thrive.

Shells quaint with curve, or spot, or spike,
Encrusted live things argus-eyed,
All fair alike, yet all unlike,
Are born without a pang, and die
Without a pang, and so pass by.

Christina Rossetti

I'm not staying around tonight. Just came from a union meeting and I've got some stuff to read over. I will match your Rossetti with another though. Sweet dreams sweetness.

REMEMBER

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.
Remeber me when no more, day by day,
You tell me of our future that you planned:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Christina Georgina Rossetti

I'm doing OK, except for a crazy hay fever, which bugs me from time to time during the summer.

It's OK. I'm used to it by now, lol. It comes and goes, so I take a few pills and it seems to work.
