Welcome to Sanity Island

President Bush traveled to Manassas, Virginia today where he addressed a crowd at Micron Technology Virginia on Fiscal Responsibility.

The full text of his remarks can be read here.

Ninety six years ago today, our fortieth president was born, and later tonight, Former First Lady Nancy Reagan will present our nation’s forty-first president, George Herbert Walker Bush, with the 2007 Ronald Reagan Freedom Award at a gala dinner in Beverly Hills, CA at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

To honor President Ronald Reagan on the anniversary of his birthday, President George W. Bush has designated United States Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton to place a wreath on President Reagan’s gravesite on his behalf. Colonel James B. Seaton III, Commanding Officer at Camp Pendleton, will conduct the ceremony, which will commence at 11:00 a.m. with a music prelude beginning at 10:30 a.m. by the Camp Pendleton band and the United States Naval Academy Men’s Glee Club. The ceremony includes a color guard, chaplain, a brass quintet, a 21-gun salute, the placing of an official wreath from the White House on President Reagan’s gravesite, and a fly-over by the March Air Reserve Base. The ceremony’s guest speaker will be the Honorable Edwin Meese, former Attorney General under President Reagan, who will deliver personal remarks. The ceremony will be held at President Reagan’s Memorial Site at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, located at 40 Presidential Drive, Simi Valley, California 93065.

I'd rather have the money, too, but this insurance is catastrophic --- for costs over $5000.

I'm just damned lucky Medicaid and Medicare paid for those MRI and CAT scans I had done a few years ago.

AARP? They're a waste of money, besides their liberal bent.

I think the laser surgery here is not all that costly. My pest control guy had it and his was $1800 for both eyes.

I would imagine that's how much it would cost me here if I had it done, but it's probably well worth the money if you really wanted it done.

I mean, $2800 sounds like a lot for just one hearing aid, but for me, it was worth it in the end to be able to hear. With my limited income, I could only afford one hearing aid. My dearly departed grandmother bought the other one for me.

AARP is a liberal bloc group. I would never join them -- even if I were eligible (smile)

I know but the candy part of the pralines was just the glue to hold the pecans together. They are delicious, though. I think they really taste like the candy I made as a kid but we just did not drop them by spoonfuls. If you want a very easy recipe then the one I used is the one to use. Even a kid could make these.

I'll be lucky I think this year to have any pecans. Depends on just how well my pecans trees come back from the damage they suffered from the ice.
