Hello again...& Welcome to ATRW for Tues., Apr. 19!
As the week continues....
John Bolton's name is set to be sent to the Senate Floor for confirmation as UN Ambassador...
Longtime Republican Cong. from Illinois, Henry Hyde announced his retirement at term's end.
For the first time in 4 weeks, gasoline prices at the pump have dropped...a few cents.
An Iraqi Maj. General and his son were assassinated late Monday returning to Baghdad from Madain.
And the Cardinals met for the first day of their deliberations with no new Pope selected.
We Will Not Tire, We Will Not Falter, and We Will not Fail!
Yesterday I couldn't find it, TALK ABOUT WITHDRAWAL!
Good Morning Everyone. Slept in this AM.
Years ago, when a friend was bemoaning the fact that she had just turned 40, she was dumbfounded when I told her to "Be happy and rejoice". She asked me "Why should I be 'happy' about growing old?" Instead of asking her "What is the alternative?" my answer was "Now, you can do anything YOU want to do or say, and others will excuse it by saying 'she's just an old broad'. LOL
LOL! How true.
Uncle Floyd is a joy. He is 88 years young, still chops wood, goes for rides in ultralights and drive across country to see relatives. His favorite t-shirt says:
"When I die I want to go peacefully in my sleep just like Grandad did.
NOT screaming in terror like the passengers in his car."

He's always been a slimeball and will sink to any level to benefit himself. He'll even live with ole broadbeam if she wins the whitehouse.
Ewwwwww,I can't even think about that evil person back in the White House.
Dark and cloudy down here but still in the 60s.
I think the democrats are bringing in everyone they can think of trying to blacked Mr. Bolton's name. They sit and blab and blab, finally getting to their question after 9 minutes. I think they've become unhinged, not that I believe all of them are hinged.
I heard that AIR (ERR)AMERICA radio is going down the tubes!!!!!!
I do hope that the "potty mouth" Al Franken goes away....far, far away.
I can NOT stand that man.
Good Morning. I had a rough night last night. I took a Tylenol PM at 9:00, went to bed at 9:15 and was still awake at midnight.
NOW the Tylenol PM is working. I am groggy and dragging.
We had a rain shower this morning. Just enough to wash the dust off everything.
The sun is shining now, but it is very humid. Sort of like a July morning. It was 71 at 8:00 am.
Hope everyone has a good day.
Hello. I finished an assignment and got it sent off. Now, I can play. All the relatives have gone back off to their homes. I seem strangely unfocused at the moment.
For the nonce, I will enjoy listening to Mr. Cheney at the OKC Memorial. Then, I'll look at my flowers some. Later today, I have a few things to begin. Prayers are for the Cardinals in the Cistine Chapel.
HERE, HERE. But I'll never let my gray show through.
That would be awful wouldn't it?
Whew! For a minute there, I thought your comment was about prairiebreezes great uncle Floyd! Then the ole synapses clicked when I got to WH and I KNEW you meant x42. Lawdy, lawdy, lawdy. (Southern speak for OH, LORD!) LOL
oops.......Meant to put you in the heading. Sorry for my senior moment.
Did your thumb heal ok?
Don't be upset...
Hello, are yo working this evening?
You mean to tell me that Al Franken isn't good enough, smart, and gosh darnit! people don't like him?! ;^)
