"...can be deployed in local chapter and national relief operations to drive supplies and people into disaster areas that other vehicles might not be able to reach."

Yeah, right. Let me get this straight. They want Hummer owners to drive their $50-60,000 Hummers into disaster areas? These are the same people who drive these beasts through the mall parking lot and slow down to a creeping crawl to traverse the harrowing face of......... the speed bump.

it appears as though the Red Cross has had trouble with its blood drives, so in an effort to lure potential donors they have brought in Monica Lewinsky and some of her pals to give a little quid pro quo.

Man, and I settled for the t-shirt, coke, and cholesterol screening.

Lazamataz can always be counted on for a good comment!
Also, I believe Jenna Jameson is also a member of the hummer club. It will be my mission to CONFIRM her membership :-)

In mid-summer I have a dozen hummers buzzing my feeders. Cute little beggars.

Interesting fact about humming birds-
Do you know why humming birds hum?


Because they don't know the words.

LOL. I love to watch them guard a feeder. They get downright nasty about it. They also let me know if a feeder is low by finding me outside and hovering in my face making a chattery chirping. If I'm inside they hover in a window or at the French doors to the back deck until they find us.

In the summer, I have a hummingbird feeder hanging on my kitchen window.
They are beautiful.

Feeding the squirrels and other birds now.
Bitterly cold here.
Poor things.
Also offer a heated water dish.
I read that more birds die of dehydration than hunger during the winter.

Water isn't a problem at my house. We have a pretty creek bordering the back of the yard that never freezes.
