OHHHH>....I am SOOOOO glad the DOSE is here....NEED this dose of SANITY......I spent a few hours at the state Capital in meetings testifying FOR Charter Schools...then trying to see State Reps/Senator....I got so angry....our State Senator's secretary had this on a file cabinet....one of those word cube things......with these words....

STOP...EVIL...PRESIDENT...WAR....HEALTH.....

(I might have left out a word or two)......I was SOOOO angry.......OKAY...I'm calming down now! I'm going back to look at pictures of our President. Thanks, Gretchen.

***Her response was, of course, YES, to which she added, "My Mom has EVERY word George W. Bush has ever said on tape!"***

Just how many tapes is that, Ohio?

I was shocked to find, during my organization of our entertainment center yesterday, about 15 tapes with the pres. and /or Laura on them. Now I can get my fix any time! I have blank tapes ready to go, by both VCRs.

Volunteer to walk your precincts...it only takes a couple hours on a Saturday to find out what you'll be doing, a few hours to go to only your Republican neighbor's houses and pass out literature and urge them to vote (and that way, you get to find out who, in your neighborhood you can TALK to ;-), and a couple of hours on Election Day to see if your neighbors voted, and then urge those that didn't to get to the polls - it being SO important. VERY easy, and you feel soooo good afterwards...like you made a difference!

That needs a reprise.

I think we need to spend an additional $100 million for high school and intermediate reading programs.

I think we need to stop federal funding of education, but that's just me.

If teachers had any sense of morality and responsibility as a group (not addressing individual teachers), they would be ashamed to have some government program for high school literacy, when they should have taught kids to read in grade school. I've never understood why teachers haven't risen up and realized that all these literacy programs are just a slap in their face, and in effect, say that they can't do their jobs.

**"...and you know, when I had my ears pierced, gravy came out..."**

Huh?

I hate to tell you this, but the man kissed ME on the cheek, yes he did.............

They say no such thing. It's making sure that the kids who need help get help.

LOVE your tag line!!! Have you seen the cover of the new SI? I hope the jinx isn't true!

Yep, saw it. Maybe New England will be on the cover nest week, to even things out.

Apologies for getting off topic. Those are great pictures of our President, as usual.

Doing OK, homemom........no e-mail yet, no word on how he's doing.......but time is passing, and that's all I'm asking for right now.

No matter what, he should be home in 9 weeks..........that's just ONE grading period! :o)

[ilovew]

Ack! Really?! When?! Where?! What'd you do?!

[GretchenEE]

Dear goodnesswins, welcome back to The Island, and thanks for standing up for the good and the right, braving the onslaught of the ignorant, with all the ugliness that goes with it, for us in Oly.

[mrs tiggywinkle]

I don't know if told you but...I get together once a month with dear friends (7 in all) for supper and fellowship and prayer. Your Eric is always on the prayer list. God bless him sweetly. <><

Huh?

That was a line Joan Rivers used about Elizabeth Taylor; a rather cruel reference to her weight.

[GretchenEE]

I don't like to think what our educational system would be without federal funding.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

Good to see ya, kiddo!
How ya been?
Ms.B

[homemom]

Thanks; you made my day! :-) (more mail there!)

**That was a line Joan Rivers used about Elizabeth Taylor; a rather cruel reference to her weight. **

Extremely unkind.

Sounds like you're hanging in there. . . I'm sure it's so good to be counting down, especially when the weeks are in the single digits.
