Thought for the Day "If reality wants to get in touch with me, it knows where I am." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Handy Latin Phrases
when describing our troops . . . in Latin:
suaviter in modo, fortiter in re
"gently in manner, strongly in deed"

On this Day in History 1944 General Dwight D. Eisenhower,
future President of the United States,
received his fifth star
Happy Bill of Rights Day!

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE :

Radix had given Lady Jag one of those new fangled electric coffee makers for a Christmas present.  Within a week
she was taking it back to the store.

The lady at the return counter asked her if it worked.

"Oh sure, it makes a great cup of coffee.  Just like the booklet said, I plug it in, set the timer, go on to bed, and,
when I get up, the coffee's ready!"

"So, ma'am, what's wrong with it?"

"I don't want to have to go to bed every time I want to make a pot of coffee."

I know this might be off topic, but do you really like the atkins pancake mix? It tastes a little... earthy to me. and the syrup is too sharply sweet.
