AMERICA - The Right Way!! (Day 1566) [Remember the Trade Center!!]
Various News Sources and FReepers | May 5, 2005 | All of Us

Posted on 05/05/2005 4:13:56 AM PDT by Chairman_December_19th_Society

We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail!

Good morning!!

Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!

Today is election day in Britain.

Tax receipts have exceeded US Treasury projections for the quarter--some debt will be paid down.

The prosecution has rested in the Michael Jackson case.

For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.

I too loved the push mower.

I use to tell people that we had a solar powered mower. They were fascinated about it until I showed them the "solar powered push mower."

seasonal variations from estimated tax payers responding to Christmas.

Excellent insite. Thank you. I write budgets, I don't analyze the derned things. If they balance, I'm happy. If they don't balance, I go back to work until they do.

And shame on you for trying to open the eyes of one of Iowa's most loyal Supply Siders.

It's still pretty good news, as the big Government take is in the 3rd quarter, since it actually contains April 15 (it also contains June 15, which is the end of the automatic 60-day extension, though folks are really supposed to pay by April 15 if they owe). A lot of folks pay in late March, and that is in second quarter, the quarter that was reviewed. So if payments were higher than expected in the second quarter, I would sense that to mean payments will also be up in third quarter.

Now if fourth quarter runs in the black for the Government, it's time to start screaming for bigger tax cuts!

Figures! It's nice enough to go outside to garden and I feel yucky. Not enough to be in bed, but yucky enough to not be outside. Dang it!!

What the heck! I going out to pull some weeds. Sarah's home. If I pass out she'll be more than happy to splash water on my face. LOL

Bummer that you're not feeling well. I'm in sort of the same predicament myself. My back and hips are annoying me today. I may go give it a shot anyway.

btw, I did the Hokey Pokey and the Chicken Dance this morning with my 2 little gd's. Perhaps that's what's bothering my back and hips ;>)

And I had to stop at AutoZone on the way home to pick up a couple of lawn mower sized batteries for the Seed Tenders. I was definitely over dressed to be there. The first clue was that my clothes were clean. They kept staring at me. I could never fake it as a grease monkey. I was totally out of my element. And very glad to have my purchases in tow and out of there.

And now I'm off to attempt to do garden work.

3 more items I'm just now noticing are gone from the garden. Porcelain Berry Vine, look dead, time will tell. Dwarf Mulberry has all it's leaves and blooms brown. Not a good sign. And the white balloon flower is totally absent. I think it might have winter-killed.

I have found about a dozen Trumpet Lilies that will survive. But a dozen is not enough to make any kind of impact in this expanse. I will mark them and dig them up and put them together to get some punch out of them next year (it will make staking easier, too!).

And now, I'm really heading out there. From the twinges in my back when I type, it's not likely I'll last the afternoon out there.

One more thing:

What is it with this dude who apparently was bedded down by the judge on the Talent Show (I don't watch TV except News and HGTV, so I'm at a loss for names here)?

Why is he telling a reporter she snuck up behind him and kissed him on the neck? Good Grief! Not likely she will do it again if he's going to kiss (or whatever !! ) and tell.

From what I've gathered from the reports, she's about 20 years older than him, so being of questionable character, she probably thought it would be 'fun' to see if she still had what it takes. It's amazing she's lived so long without learning that if you play with fire, you get your fingers (or whatever) burnt.

Okay, now I can go get my tush to work. I'll stop back when I come in to call 911 to carry me off.

IG, American Idol, Paula Abdul, etc.etc.etc.

Last year therewas rumor another judge was diddling. The upshot is "Who cares?" Paula Abdul has a lawyer speaking for her , who says it isn't true, etc,etc,etc.

This goes in the same category as the "runaway bride" . Not news now and never will be. But it's interesting that you should wonder. I think the answer is a generational thing. That is, in the respect that some are very interested, some just interested, some find it a passing fancy, and others just don't care.

Oh my goodness. Didn't agree with the colonel on many issues, but I salute his service to his country.

I'm shocked.

Prayers for the family.

I pulled a few weeds and moved some rocks around the pond/bog. There was no need for smelling salts or a splash of water. In fact the air made me feel a tad better....not 100%, but better.

I have no idea what's going on with that show....never watched it.

Just a point of clarification...I've never watched American Idol either. It's been on the news about as much as the "runaway" story though.

Thanks for the explanation. I think I fit the last part of your statement.

Standard & Poor's cut General Motors Corp.'s debt ratings to "junk" status Thursday, a move that will reduce the auto maker's avenues for raising funds as it struggles with global competition and rising health-care costs.

The ratings agency said GM's management strategies may be ineffective in addressing the company's competitive disadvantages, but that the company should have no trouble meeting its cash requirements in the near term. S&P also lowered Ford Motor Co.'s ratings to junk status
