Say FGS, think the Associated Press will report any of what's related on #510, *accurately*? :o)
Great to know you're still in there fighting, Angel.
Sounds like you've really kept yourself hopping.
That's quite a schedule you're maintaining.
Just remember something, OK?
...save something for yourself. ;^)

I do save some for myself, and my sweetie makes sure of it. I'll have to post some pictures of us out on the rocks climbing. :o) Except, they're all of him and my daughters since I'm always the one snapping the pics!
I didn't do that, did I??? I'll check the puter at home and get on that during my short break between spring & summer semesters (about 3 weeks,wahoo!!!)
You're very welcome. I'm glad I could provide some good news. And that, my FRiends, is why I want to go into photojournalism for my Masters...I want to brighten the world with GOOD stories....there's enough bad stuff out there.

Fought a kid 5 years your junior who I'd swear had pure testosterone for blood & successfully made his eyes water while preventing him from knocking me out with some mighty fancy flying kicks he'd -- *obviously* -- been practicing.
Also broke both my required boards on the *first* of the three tries we get, too. Not an "easy" thing to do, y'know.
Actually truth be known, they didn't really "break."
...they *exploded*. :o)
say MUD, my brother, did you see the GREAT coverage the national media gave the funeral for the CSS HUNLEY crew????
we southrons got LOTS of good publicity for the HERO-MARTYRS & the TRUE CAUSE!

"Senators were trying to put together a compromise plan that would raise taxes over the next two years by just under $1 billion. This would be well under the $4 billion initially sought by the Senate. After balking at any tax increases, the House earlier had agreed to a $691 million tax package. Its leaders signaled it might raise that figure to $972 million.
Sen. Thomas K. Norment Jr., R-James City, the Senate floor leader, said Friday that he expected a deal would be reached by today, with senators holding the tax line under $1 billion. Senators and delegates could not agree on what caused the breakdown. Sen. John H. Chichester, R-Stafford, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, said there was nothing to act on today. Sen. John Watkins, R-Powhatan, a new member of the Senate Finance Committee, said senators had agreed on several options that would meet the $1 billion threshold but that some members of the House had objected.
"When you are dealing with 16 or 17 people, one person holding out is a problem," Watkins said, referring to the Republican delegates who strayed from the party's anti-tax line and joined with 36 House Democrats to endorse a tax increase. The coalition voted 52-46 in favor of a $691 million tax package last Tuesday. That was not enough to satisfy the Senate, but House leaders signaled they might accept a larger package close to $1 billion. Del. Harry J. Parrish, R-Manassas, who said Sunday that he expected a budget would be agreed upon within a week to 10 days, said he remains optimistic that a deal is near. "I just don't think that they had time," Parrish said of the Senate. "I knew that was going to be a problem. You had to put a coalition together in the Senate like we did in the House."
NO NEW TAXES...MUD
Congratulations, my FRiend...that honor is well-deserved as you've obviously been working hard to attain it!!
"Also broke both my required boards on the *first* of the three tries we get, too. Not an "easy" thing to do, y'know. Actually truth be known, they didn't really "break." ...they *exploded*. :o)"
LOL...I'm sure they did, with you focusing yer considerable heft behind said thrust!! Hopefully you got the performance on videotape or DVD...that's something to review over and over in the privacy of yer own home.
Hey CelebrityJudges, look what our FRiend accomplished!!
