everyone with a Hobby Lobby needs to spend a little $ there this weekend. i wish we had one. My SIL is going to buy some stuff even though they are moving to Houston in 10 days and she doesn't need to buy anything else to MOVE with her!

Robbie Burns was first to say:
“The best-laid schemes...gang aft agley.”

A quote that says bad folks will pay
Is “Every dog will have have its day”

Obama’s schemes lead us astray
Enough that voters will say “nay”

To spending cash in every way
And loving windmills, and all things gay

We need some light—a shaft, a ray
To lead us from this disarray

The liberal dragon, we must slay
We’ll find a spark, a counterplay

Benghazi has become an agley item, overrun with Sandy, Sandy Hook, and the “fiscal cliff”.

[tioga]

yea, dead to me, too. I call him the “portly one” now.

[tioga]

[NeoCaveman]

That fat bully would never acknowledge a mistake.

I hope he chokes on a sausage.

[tioga]

...liberal dragon we must slay...right on. A++++

Agley

Another way of saying ugly, “Thet sure is an agley monkey you got there, Lady! Your baby? Awry! He must look more like his daddy if you know who he is.”

Some people it’s just hard to say nice things about.

[tioga]

agley sounds a lot like ugly too. A++++

[mikrofon]

As the attitude of the voters has gone agley their way, there is definitely a glee among the ugly Libs...

[tioga]

the takers are gleeful too. when the money runs dry they will riot in the streets like in Greece...they won’t be so happy then. A+++

[tioga]

is this support Hobby Lobby day?

[SoothingDave]

Shame they need to spend more time lobbying and less time hobbying.

if anyone needs a diet inspiration feast your eyes on this:

....I must admit MO's ass looks better. There I complimented her.

A little Bobby Burns quote:

"The best laid schemes o' Mice an' Men,
Gang aft agley,
An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain,
For promis'd joy!"

A cautionary note for our "leaders" in the Executive and Legislative branches.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

I think tomorrow but I support them about once a week anyway.... ;^)

I had an hour of PT this morning, trying not to go agley in the exercises. It is not enjoyable and I am a bit sore now. I’ll be hitting Academy today for the giant ball for the core exercises on my list.

Marcel? I didn’t know there were redneck mimes.
