Bush, Cheney Left Off Mo. County Ballots


VAN BUREN, Mo. - Officials in one Missouri county are reprinting absentee ballots for the Nov. 2 general election after discovering that President Bush (news - web sites) and Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) were left off.

The ballots were mailed beginning Sept. 21, and Carter County Clerk Becky Gibbs said several voters noticed the oversight.

"We are rectifying it," she said. "There was no intent to leave them off."

Fewer than 500 of the erroneous ballots were sent out, and some have already been returned.

Replacement ballots will be sent to everyone who requested an absentee ballot along with a letter explaining the error.

Terri Durdaller, spokeswoman for the Secretary of State, said that if absentee voters who previously returned a ballot send a new one, it will replace the previous one. If they don't return a new ballot, their first one will be counted.

"The key is just to make sure everybody does get the changed ballot," Durdaller said.

Ballots that other voters will use Nov. 2 have not been printed yet.

Gibbs said the cost to print replacement absentee ballots should be minimal.

Chirac lashes out against US cultural domination
Thu Oct 07 2004 21:37:42 ET

French President Jacques Chirac warned Thursday of a "catastrophe" for global diversity if the United States' cultural hegemony goes unchallenged.

Speaking at a French cultural center in Hanoi ahead of Friday's opening of a summit of European and Asian leaders, Chirac said France was right to stand up for cultural and linguistic diversity.

The outspoken French president warned that the world's different cultures could be "choked" by US values.

This, he said, would lead to a "general world sub-culture" based around the English language, which would be "a real ecological catastrophe".

Citing Hollywood's stranglehold over the film industry as an example, Chirac stressed that only with government assistance could countries maintain their cultural heritage.

Vietnam is a former French colony, but only around 375,000 of its 81 million people speak French. English is considered by most people a far more valuable and practical second language, particularly among businessmen.

Heck, we can't even gain control of our own culture and language, let alone anybody else's. I guess Chirac thinks the worldwide imposition of the juhadist "culture" is a far better plan.

Actually, yes.
AND I got a good clean heat to cook over from it.
My brother was the one who detonated the grill and then had to retrieve all the coals..
I think sis remembers the details of that one as I was only present for the aftermath to hear "Oooh! Ooh! hot! hot! Ow! Ow! ow-ow-ow-ow-ow!"
(Yes, we stood by passively as we watched him pick up the coals with his hands.)

The Redneck Love Poem

She planned to marry Joe.
She was so happy 'bout it all
She told her pappy so.

Pappy told her, Susie gal,
You'll have to find another.
I'd just as soon yo' maw don't know,
But Joe is yo' half brother.

So Susie put aside her Joe,
And planned to marry Will,
But after telling Pappy this,
He said, "there's trouble still."

You can't marry Will, my gal,
And please don't tell yer mother,
But Will and Joe, and several mo'

But Mama knew and said "my child.
Just do what makes ya happy..
Marry Will or marry Joe.
You ain't no kin to Pappy......"

Babe, I thought I'd post this for you before your trip to Kentucky to the wedding/family reunion.

You Know You're From Louisville When...


Your "International" airport has only one passenger
flight that actually leaves the 48
contiguous U.S. states

The in-state sports rivalry is paid more attention to
than the national championship.

You live in an area that occasionally gets
considerable snowfalls, floods, and tornadoes... but
has no capacity to deal with any of the above.

You pronounce the name of your city different than
anyone else you've heard.

You think the rest of the people in Kentucky sound
like hicks.

When you think "Kentucky" you don't automatically
think horse racing or fried chicken.

You ask your doctor for an allergy cure and he tells
you to "move."

You've shovelled 10+ inches of snow and worn shorts in
the same week.

When people ask what school you went to, they don't
mean Vanderbilt, Yale, or Harvard; they mean Ballard,
Male, Manual, Trinity or St. X.

You know what the Bambi Walk is.

Your last ten vacations were in Panama City or Destin.

You make an emergency run to Kroger for bread and milk
at the first sighting of a snowflake.

You've lived here for years, yet somehow you get
hopelessly lost each time you attempt a shortcut
through Cherokee Park.

You're convinced turn signals are useless options on a
vehicle.

You hold up traffic to let a motorist you don't know
into your lane.

You give directions based on landmarks that no longer
exist or street names that have changed, but your
directions never confuse any of the other
Louisvillians

You have never been to the Derby, but wouldn't miss
the Oaks.

You call in sick to attend the Oaks and spot your boss
- who also called in sick - at the next
betting window.

You think all the REAL hicks live in New Albany.

You think the only thing Southern Indiana is good for
is buying pumpkins.

When introduced to another life-long Louisvillian, you
spend the first part of the conversation finding out
how you are connected. It's never as many as six
degrees of separation - usually three will do it.

You think a pervert is someone who would rather have
sex than watch basketball.

You've built a shrine to Rick Pitino in your basement.

You can read about Rick Pitino in at least three
different sections of your newspaper.

You think the rest of the world knows what Benedictine
spread is.

You think the rest of the world knows what a Hot Brown
is.

You have never eaten fish that wasn't fried.

You think the whole world puts spaghetti in chili.

You want another bridge built over the Ohio River,
just so long as it doesn't cut through YOUR
neighborhood.

You've experienced a "salt storm" after a two-inch
snowfall.

You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other
friends from Louisville.

I would add, "you know someone who actually blow dries their lawn after it rains.

Nah, a couple of nights ago I went out with a man whose age is more reasonable (still younger). He owns a real estate agency, and seemed fairly nice, but kinda pushy, so I'm not sure if I want to see him again.
Too many men put on a hurt feelings act if you're not interested in inspecting their bedroom furniture after they buy you a couple of drinks. It's juvenile, and Mr Too Young never tried that ploy with me.

LOL...you forgot to add that that they know what "fast time and slow time" is. When my brother used to work in Louisvillle, he was on EST at work and CST at home. So, he had his own alarm clock.

And it will surely happen that someone will ask the time of someone and they will ask "slow time or fast time". It drives me nuts.

Here's a joke that posted over at the Dose




John Kerry chokes on an oyster cracker and dies. He goes to hell where the devil is waiting for him. "I don't know what to do here" says the devil.

"You're on my list but I have no room for you. But you definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got three folks here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide who leaves."

John Kerry thought that sounded good so he agrees.

The devil opened the first room: in it was Ted Kennedy in a large pool of water. He kept diving in and surfacing empty-handed, over and over. Such was his fate in hell.

"No!" John said. "I don't think so! I'm not a good swimmer and I don't think I could do that all day long!"

The devil led John to the second room: in it was Jane Fonda with a sledgehammer and a room full of rocks. All she did was swing that sledgehammer, time after time after time.

"No, I've got a problem with my shoulder. I would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day!" commented John.

The devil opened the third door. In it, John saw Bill Clinton, lying on the floor with his arms staked over his head, and his legs staked in spread-eagle pose.

Bent over him was Monica Lewinski, doing what she does best.

John Kerry looked at this in disbelief for a while and finally said, "Yeah, I can handle this!" The devil smiled and said, "OK, Monica, you're free to go!"
