Hey, she's a Jinx through and through! She's going to keep us on our toes for at least another 18 years! But that's okay, y'know why?

Cuz we love her!

Don't worry about honey-dews, I have a habit of figuring out lots to do on my own!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

LADY IN RED

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance
I have never seen that dress you're wearing
Or the highlights in your head that catch your eyes I have been blind
The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek
There's nobody here, it's just you and me, It's where I wanna be
But I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never for get, the way you look tonight

I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright you were amazing
I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side
And when you turned to me and smiled, It took my breath away
I have never had such a feeling
Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight

The way you look tonight
I never will forget, the way you look tonight
The lady in red
The lady in red
The lady in red
My lady in red (I love you.)

 

[Lady Jag]

I vote for this one:

John Kerry stopped for a bit of Square dancing in Iowa just before he knocked that poor old lady on her ass.


But I sort of like... "Someone yelled "SOOOOO-EY!" and Kerry ran over men, women and children to be first."

[tomkow6]

As I'm sure alot of you have received a email saying that Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees for up to two years.

Well, I sent an email TO Sears, asking if this is true or not.  I got an answer.  Here it is:

 

Dear Mr. K,

Thank you for taking the time to confirm our actions regarding our associates who have been called into active duty.

As you may have read, Sears has extended its program of military pay differential to 36 months. This includes allowing Sears reservists who are full-time employees to continue participating in the company's life insurance, medical and dental programs, if they choose. The company will also hold a comparable position for these individuals for up to five years.

The information is factual.  Sears regards service to our country as one of greatest sacrifices our young
men and women can make. We are happy to do our part to lessen the burden they bear at this time.

Sears has a heritage of commitment to families and home. This is a difficult time for military families, and we are proud to be able to take these actions to demonstrate support for our many co-workers who are serving our Nation.

Again, thank you for your correspondence. We appreciate your interest in our efforts, and hope you will continue to make Sears your choice for quality and value. Sears, Good Life. Great Price.

Sincerely,
The Employees of Sears, Roebuck and Co.

Kenmore, Craftsman...what's not to love? I will do my darnedest to make any future purchases I can from this store -- although I don't usually brave the mall. It would be worth it to support this company!

Rain maker: Legend has it that long ago, Tsurugashima, Japan's pond snake slithered away, taking the rain with it. A severe drought ensued, and there was much suffering. Now, every four years, citizens build a dragon of straw and bamboo and pray for rain.
