[dixie sass]

I've seen that story many times before and it always touches my heart.

[dixie sass]

"If you understood what communism was, you would hope and pray on your knees that we would someday become communists. Jane Fonda quote.

[nicmarlo]

ty sassy....there's no words over that? My monitor is picking up outline of letters, but I can't read it....my monitor screen is a lovelylimish green. My letters are not quite black. : )

[dixie sass]

Hanoi John and Jane.
and then right over their heads is Kerry saying "amen sister"

You definitely need a new monitor! Or a new video card? I understand that monitors are fairly inexpensive now.

Military Monday hello to my lovely sistahs and Finest friends. My work ISP was down today...talk about withdrawal!

Praying WITH our troops. God bless our veterans past and present.



Off to a political meeting. If I don't get back here tonight may you all have a blessed evening.

[dixie sass]

Be safe dutchess!

[nicmarlo]

Hanoi John and Jane

Thanks! That's very funny!!! (I know monitors are inexpensive.....but I want an expensive one, lol...the flat screen...so, I'm suffering in the meantime with my green screen, till I can afford the flat one....I'm hoping I can get a new one soon, now that Christmas is over. I bought airline tickets for my daughter to fly out here from CA, and, of course, then there were gifts to buy for both my kids...hopefully, soon (very soon) I will be able to get rid of this monitor!)

[dixie sass]

Where is everyone? I feel like Bambi looking for his momma in the snowstorm - Mama? Where are you Mama? It's that time of the year for tear jerker movies, isn't it?

[dixie sass]

I know what you mean. I want to upgrade and get a new everything with all the bells and whistles but can't afford it.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

[nicmarlo]

keep both of 'em crossed! and thanks much!! : )

A Nation's Strength

What makes a nation's pillars high
And it's foundations strong?
What makes it mighty to defy
The foes that round it throng?
It is not gold. Its kingdoms grand
Go down in battle shock;
Its shafts are laid on sinking sand,
Not on abiding rock.

Is it the sword? Ask the red dust
Of empires passed away;
The blood has turned their stones to rust,
Their glory to decay.

And is it pride? Ah, that bright crown
Has seemed to nations sweet;
But God has struck its luster down
In ashes at his feet.

Not gold but only men can make
A people great and strong;
Men who for truth and honor's sake
Stand fast and suffer long.

Brave men who work while others sleep,
Who dare while others fly...
They build a nation's pillars deep
And lift them to the sky.

...Ralph Waldo Emerson
