Oh, what a neat story and great pictures! Thanks, Dave. :)

Hi, dutchess! I'm here, there, and in and out!

[Billie]

No one seems to care about them and it bothers me to the extreme and in fact is down right depressing. I guess you have to be beautiful and look like a movie star to get anything.

But there was quite a lot of coverage and pictures constantly on the news at the time of their capture, during their capture, AND their release and their homecoming, I thought. I agree we're not hearing anything about any of them now, and yes, there's been a huge buildup about Jessica Lynch's book, the interview, and the TV movie, and it's not going to be over soon for her.

[Billie]

Well, what a nice surprise that was - I'm glad they are offering the discount to Veterans.

[ST.LOUIE1]

WOLFIE!!!! You're back. Again!
Someone needs to bake you some upside down cake. I would, but, well, it just never comes out right!

LOL! Hi, Dixie!!

How are you at baking pies? : )

[Billie]

Well, the bad thing about it is that I wrote all the hostesses and reminded them to change the url in their own copies of the bottom link thingies. :(

I was just thinking, oh, I have time to do that later.....and then later (this morning, that is) I am late posting the thread as I almost ALWAYS am on Mondays, and changed nothing except the link to the weekend thread, which is habit.

T Man, you did NOT see this error. :)

[ST.LOUIE1]

I traded in Percoset for Bugs Bunny and it kinda worked well.

LOL! I'll give it a try.

Oh man, nowadays when I stub my toe or something, I just remember *that* pain and compare it to what I'm experiencing and I just laugh it off. So I guess you've got that going for you: in the future you'll be more pain-toughened perhaps.

Sure hope so!

What doesn't kill you . . ..

You made me laugh, Freezie.....thanks. : )

Actually there was very little. There was more coverage of Lynch being carried out on the stretcher, etc.

[Billie]

It's my fault! :( The Album was moved, but the link above is to it's 'old' address. But I did check the new address, and didn't see your photo - probably .45Man hasn't had a chance to get it sized and uploaded yet. When they get a whole bunch of new photos in at once, it takes time to get all of the edited and uploaded to the Album.

[dixie sass]

lol, not much better. When you live by yourself, you tend to buy them rather than bake them!

I must admit my cooking skills are rapidly taking a downhill turn! I use to love to cook too. Cooking for one is a pain! Thank you Lord for Stouffer's and Marie Callendar and frozen single serve pizza's.

Is Stu the Marine I met in D.C.?

You met Graham. Stu and Brad are both in the Army. Mathew acts and looks a lot like his uncle Brad. Stu left for Afghanistan the night of the Protest. That was a heck of a note watching all of those useful idiots then getting a quick phone call before you son leaves.

[MEG33]

I am thrilled your boys are here for a while.I thank them for serving my country.Stay safe,Stu. Shopping in Afghanistan..rugs?

[TheBigB]

What's the new addy, Billie?

[dixie sass]

Persian rugs are always a good buy. Gold jewelry over there is cheap, I've heard. A burqua????? Of course, you could always give that to the ANSWER group and tell them to start making a bunch, 'cause that's what they'll be wearing in Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan when they go there to live.

You have a wonderful family, I was honored to meet the ones I did. Tell Graham and his wife I said hello and give Matthew a big hug for me! He is so precious.

LOL Well, you can buy me a bag of cookies. : )

[Billie]

I included the new link in my Happy Birthday post to you - can you go find that post? LOL! Don't make me do ALL the work around here!

[TheBigB]

Oops. Heh, heh. :-) .45MAN -did- add it to the old album just last week...I saw it. I guess he hasn't had time to transfer it to the new address yet.

[Billie]

I love that goofy smiley thingie. :)

I need to get over to P & P and say hello. It really is good to see you here today - I'm certainly not the only one here happy to see you back though. You've been busy trying to keep up with your pings today! :)

[Donaeus]

It's great when you have someone you can tease with. You seem like a very fun-loving person. :)

ROFLMSocks off. This is absolutely hysterical, I love it!!! Thank you for all the links.
