QUOTE OF THE DAY: From the Presidential Radio Address today.
America's economy is on the right track. Over the past two years, we've added more than 3.5 million new jobs. More Americans are working today than ever before. Home ownership is at an all time high. Small businesses are flourishing. Factory output is growing. And families are taking home more of what they earn.
These are hopeful signs for our economy, and we must work hard to sustain that prosperity. When members of Congress return next week, they need to take action on four key priorities for the American people. [The President then discussed each of the four points.

Rats! Forgot to turn on the "pinger" and lost out on being first----or even top 30 probably! Thanks for the great pics, Wolfstar!

Pinging you to my birthday greeting in #10.
Good day, LUV W and everyone. It's a lovely day here in Southern California.
Cool idea for a birthday greeting. Love the photo and your caption.
Toaster winner - what do you want?
Ah well, top 40 it will have to be!
I've just been informed via FReemail that Sunday is Jonny's birthday, not today. But that's OK. As I told the emailer, better to celebrate it a day early than not at all. It's the thought that counts, after all.
That's very sweet of you, Wolfstar--thank you!
Hey--an Anime birthday! Thank you :)
LOL! Close enough :)
