Altura, I'm so glad you said that about posting. I didn't want to sound like my own echo, so I was saying nothing. But, the other evening, I said that I'm trying whenever possible to get on a thread early if it's one that the Bush-haters are apt to pop up on. I suggest not posting to anyone in particular, saying your say, and then NOT reading any of the replies.
FR was established to spread the truth, and if we don't do that, what's the sense of having FR?
If you can get on a thread early, that's great since many people only read the first page. If you can't, then post anyway and then disappear.
It is HARD not to read the replies, but if you've made your statement you just have to rely on newcomers and visitors to know the truth from the hatred which is spewed so liberally on FR lately. Remember, most people don't like to spend time with hateful people.
Bush is so cool!
I'm glad he's able to go bike riding like this. He certainly deserves some alone time. God bless him always!!!
AGREED!
Good for you - and think how wonderful of a service you'll provide for new Moms! EXcellent!
The kids are great. Big changes coming for a couple of them.......well, three of them.
Only one coming home for the summer......the baby. :)
I have one week of class, then finals, and YES, I'm ready for it to be over. This class has taken MUCH prep time, and I'm ready for it to be done.
Summer will take us to Colorado.........TWICE. :)
How about you? Kids and Mr Homemom doing OK?
Good evening all
Never seen that first one of the 2 dogs in the limo.
Hi and bye, snugs!
Congratulations what would you like on your toaster?
Please ask another friend to take you to the dr! Breathing (or not being able to) is nothing to mess around with. Don't you have asthma, too?
Brandon looks older, is it the hair cut?
I was on a thread earlier this afternoon when one of those "I'm-so-conservative-that-no-one-will-ever-be-conservative-enough-for-me-so-I'm-superior-to-you" types posted what ultimately looked like a hit & run about everything being "Bush's fault." Called GWB the favorite MSM buzzwords (which I won't repeat, you know 'em). I was so angry I posted a reply ending with how sick to death I am of the bashing. I was ready to get flamed and had what I thought was a pretty good riposte, but I never needed to use it 'cause as far as I know it didn't return. Durn!
Hello, and how are you? Did you go visit the queen on her b-day?
No, I've never had asthma. My mom kept trying to convince me it was allergies. But my throat doesn't even hurt. It's just hard to breathe.
This might sound like a wierd question, but are you very angry with someone or at something? There is a school of thought that when we get laryngitis or throat problems in general, it's due to being so angry we literally cannot speak. Normally I don't subscribe to that kind of stuff but ya never know!
Thanks for the pictures--what IS it about the glasses that's so appealing?
Sounds like you're ready for the less-strictly scheduled summer. We are too! Esp. when the weather is so nice.
So, big changes, huh? I'll FReep you with my suspicions. :-)
We're all doing well for the most part, and thanks for asking. Just when I was thinking it was all out of control, God showed me in an amazing way that HE is in charge--thank goodness--I can't imagine the mess I'd make of it--LOL!
FReepmail in a minute.. .
Yes....I took that pic after papa took him to the barber.....next week papa has plans to get him a *flat top*.....yikes!......little Thomas is turning out to be a little forkel....red hair and blue eyes, just like daddy....
I think you are right about posting to some of the threads altura. When our smartest people stay on the sidelines it is detrimental to FR. The quality of discussion goes down. My problem is not having enough time to spend checking out the threads. But I do at least post if I think what I have to say is worth while. As my tagline says, I never use the word "you" in a debate. It keeps the debate impersonal and is less likely to cause friction.
