Good morning! I was up and so started the thread....
Ralph Nader, the bete noir of the Left, has proclaimed his candidacy.
Hillary is going so negative, shrill and sarcastic in her Ohio and Texas campaigning, it's only going to scare more voters and delegates to her opponent's side.
Speaking of the weather, it’s been raining all weekend and cold here - in norhtern San Diego County.
We always welcome the rain, but enuf already. And there are snow-capped mountains around us.
Oh golly, what will I have for breakfast, there’s so much to choose from. Decisions, decisions.
Good Morning Everyone. It’s beautiful in central Texas, this A.M. Our temps should hover around 80 degrees, and like nw arizona granny, the weeds are growing.
Funny you talk about phone calls. My parents received calls from Slick and Chelsea. I received a call from a Hill campaign volunteer. We are all conservatives. Couldn’t figure that one out...other than Hill is desperate.
Thanks for the links, Molly, and we’re glad you’re back!
Good to see you too, sweetie.:)
A cowboy named Bud was overseeing his herd in a remote mountainous pasture in California when suddenly a brand-new BMW advanced out of a dust cloud towards him.
>The driver, a young man in a Brioni suit, Gucci shoes, RayBan sunglasses and YSL tie, leans out the window and asks the cowboy, 'If I tell you exactly how many cows and calves you have in your herd, Will you give me a calf?'
Bud looks at the man, obviously a yuppie, then looks at his peacefully grazing herd and calmly answers, 'Sure, Why not?'
The yuppie parks his car, whips out his Dell notebook computer,connects it to his Cingular RAZR V3 cell phone, and surfs to a NASA page on the Internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite to get an exact fix on his location which he then feeds to another NASA satellite that scans the area in an ultra-high-resolution photo.
>Theyoung man then opens the digital photo in Adobe Photoshop and exports it to an image processing facility in Hamburg,Germany.
>Within seconds, he receives an email on his Palm Pilot that the image has been processed and the data store d. He then a ccesses a MS-SQL database through an ODBC connected Excel spreadsheet with email on his Blackberry and, after a few minutes, receives a response. > >Finally, he prints out a full-color, 150-page report on his hi-Tech Miniaturized HP LaserJet printer and finally turns to the cowboy and says, 'You have exactly 1,586 cows and calves.'
>'That's right. Well, I guess you can take one of my calves,' says Bud.
>He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks on amused as the young man stuffs it into the trunk of his car. > >Then Bud says to the young man, 'Hey, if I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you give me back my calf? '
>The young man thinks about it for a second and then says, 'Okay, why not?'
>'You're a Congressman for the U.S. Government', says Bud.
'Wow! That's correct,' says the yuppie, 'but how did you guess that?'
'No guessing required.' answered the cowboy. 'u showed up here even though nobody called you; you want to get paid for an answer I already knew,to a question I never asked. You tried to show me how much smarter than me you are; and you don't know a thing about cows...this is a herd of sheep.
>Now give me back my dog!"
Hah !!!
Iowa Granny likes the jokes.
>>Bit, I’m glad my name is restored to me
My screen name on eBay is TN_Freeper!!! I’ve been selling my film cameras and older stereo gear.... and now, I’ve seen how much my old comic books are worth (I have a few issue #1’s) - I’ll try that.
But not one person has asked what a Freeper is.
LOL
Being unemployed sucks.
I did call one of my former co-workers and asked her if she wanted to go sit on a park bench and feed the birds....she thought that was funny....but I was serious...
Orientation is this week?
Orientation is MARCH 4TH!!
Whoohoo!!! Consider these next few days as a vacation, not unemployed. :-)
