Still fuming at the perfidious treachery of McCain, Graham, and Powell, I am starting this thread early today. Please post your comments, thoughts, and any news stories of interest.
All who contribute to the cause are welcome!
Hi, Raven and everybody.
The president was terrific today and boy was he angry.
We're trying out a new Thai restaurant tonight with friends; some curry is calling my name. LOL
I won't go into it ....but today was been the PITS!
Replay of the presser ON NOW CSPAN #1, in case some folks wanna watch or record it.
David Gregory segment coming up SOON.
Oh, I am so sorry. I know your family is having a rough time. Prayers offered for all of you. Hang in there.
(((((((((Dog))))))))))))
The e coli threat has widened to Wisconsin. PLEASE EVERYONE toss out any fresh spinich you have in your possession.
This is a classic example of HOW terrorist *could* easily taint our food supply.
Dog, prayers for you...
I have several families on my mind this week...elderly parents who have fallen and are in the hospital...a friend's sister undergoing an MRI for a possible brain tumor...There's an epidemic of these events this week among our friends...
I believe I will be eating boiled veggies for a few days except for stuff I buy at the Farmer's Market (all local).
Thanks for the prayers.
As strange as it seems, the fire isn't that close. It's just the terrain here makes smoke settle in low spots and I'm kinda in one. Though some of the people I work with were evacuated.
Now I haven't tried that ripping sound with my BCD, but I can get the clown fish to come up to me when I rub my fingers together (it looks like I'm doing the gesture for "give me some money" or "it's expensive"). I love tube worms only I call them Christmas Tree worms. I make them pop back in the coral, too. Also, the spaghetti worms, if you gently stroke or pull one strand, the whole slides back into it's hiding place. Cool!
When I was learning to dive and practicing my fin pivots, I lay on a flounder! As I rose the first time, it scurried forward but not very far and I lay on it again. After that I had trouble doing the pivot because I was playing with the fish!
I forgot to list the octopi that I've seen. But no babies.
I was doing a wreck dive in Bali and the guides put a relatively inexperience diver with us. JT and I spent a lot of the dive pulling him up away from the floor and away from the sting rays down there. He almost swam into them several times.
For me one of the saddest parts of that is that it adds to a prejudice I've developed. Every time I've been swimming with someone from his country, one of their nationals has had to be rescued. I don't know what it is, usually they've seen someone younger or more wimpier doing something which takes training and they've attempted it too, only without the training. The worst was when three early elementary kids were playing and treading water in the deep end of a pool. The guy must have assumed it was shallow because the kids were "obviously" too young to be able to swim well. So, without thinking, he walked off the side of the pool. The guy had no idea how to swim at all! He was unconcious when we pulled him up, but started breathing on his own and was revived. PTL! Now, I've not had to rescue everyone of this nationality, but just one from each group when I've been around them. It gets tiring and you want to say, "Okay, all _____ STAY AWAY FROM THE WATER!"
(Had to update my WinAmp in order to hear The Shirelles a la .m4a...;-))
Hi, Bit. You're exactly right. I think part of the reason we've seen low poll numbers if because the Rats got emboldened at the president's reluctance to fight back against the left's lies.
Now, Toby dear, your antecedents are a bit unclear to me. Just which got bent, the tractor or the tree? I'm thinking you meant the tractor but perhaps you meant the tree.
I'll be praying for better days for you and your family.
Yippee!! I thoroughly cleaned/disinfected our bathroom...the on my mil used for 3 years...and then thoroughly/disinfected/ cleaned it again.
Heaven..sheer heaven... to take a shower in the master bath... once again.
I threw mine out this afternoon. Some of the casse were in counties very near here.
