Oh I agree with you,snugs. It's easier to have a male boss than a woman. It's very rare that I have a woman boss who isn't trying to fix my feelings, which means she's trying to project her emotional problems onto me or anyone else.
I have had one really great woman boss.
Yes, maam. The Bush White House started nudging back a bit and he does not like it.
Bwhahahahahahahhaa
Great to hear you are getting broadband you will think you are in heaven LOL
OK I will just do a link to the dessert today LOL
I don't know maybe it is the Clever Freeper Company, that and I have almost all my Citrus trees blooming including one that is supposed to be a Tangerine, but also is some kind of lemon in one tree. It is so unique to have Mauve Buds (lemon) and White Buds (Grapefruit,oranges,etc) on the same tree, I thought I was seeing things. Spring is renewal, and as a Grove owner (LOL) these Beautiful Buds and Blossoms can cheer anyone up, and bring ear to ear grins.
And he delivers it out to the world in such a solemn portentous tone. He seems to think he's come down from the mount with a stone tablet.
He doesn't hold it internally. He has a tank that his servants carry around for him. You don't want to know where they plug in the hose when it's time for him to talk. Teraayzaah is actually off stage playing a large instrument, not unlike a pipe organ, to form the words.
And that pompous tone is a side effect of the old instrument she uses. It dates back to when it was used to power William Jennings Bryan's speaking engagements in his later years. Teraayzaah got it as a wedding present from her friend George Soros.
Boy, from your words to God's ears......
BTW I am now reading Ayaan Hirsi Ali's book "Infidel" and this puts everything into a different perspective.
It's a good book but there are scenes that are so awful, it had me up half the night, they were so bad.
LOLOL.
I LOVE the squeak toy idea.
Gosh, samantha, I am so sorry to hear you aren't feeling well..and thumbs ARE quite necessary when posting.
Actually, though..this would not have been a good week for you on FR with your computer problems.
FR was SO SLOW all week, that I just stopped posting for a long time..it just wasn't worth the headache.
Yeah i agree.
When Murtha talks think "Senile crooked old Geezer" and you can laugh at anything he says.
$$$$$
Murtha is now the sock puppet for Tim Andrews, ex-D congressman, Maine, and now a leader of Win Without War. Unfortunately for the WWW movement, Murtha is just showing the world how lame their position truly is. It was Andrews who made the video of Murtha saying how Congress was going to stop the war in Iraq. A video that did nothing to stir up the WWWs but lots to enlighten ordinary Americans after it got posted to YouTube and various blogs.

The Sunday Morning Talk Shows - The Review
Madness in March
By Mark Kilmer
Sunday, March 18, 2007
On MTP, Chuckie Schumer snarled. He did offer that firing Attorney General Alberto Gonzales would give the Administration a "fresh start" at "respecting the rule of law." He said that he had "proof" that AGAG had used politics in firing the U.S. attorneys: four of them said that he did.
On FNS, fired U.S. attorney Bud Cummins insisted that he "served at the pleasure of the President," while other fired U.S. attorney David Iglesias argued that he was fired because he was going to drop the boom on Pete Domenici.
On TW, Senators Leahy and Cornyn were in almost total agreement, except that Leahy will have his Senate Judiciary Committee vote Thursday to subpoena Karl Rove, Harriet Miers, and Bill Kelley, while Senator Cornyn wants a legitimate investigation without that "political with hunt"
Next on TW, National Security Advisor Steve Hadley referred to the latest version of Pelosi-Murtha as an artificial and arbitrary timeline which they know the President will veto; he asked Congress to drop the "political charade" and pass a "responsible bill."
Also on FNS, Arlen Specter declared that Schumer had "crossed the line" by presiding over an investigation into the firing of the U.S. attorneys on one day and presiding over the DCCC and blasting Domenici on their web site the next.
The roundtable on MTP was a lot of noise, but Tom Andrews did manage to tell us that a large percentage of Iraqis sampled for some survey were more qualified to determine U.S. military strategy than were our own generals and colonels.
On FTN, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates told host Bob Schieffer that we would know how the surge was working this summer but that the Iraqis were keeping their commitments.
Although she did not used the childish term, Diane Feinstein on FTN told Schieffer that AGAG and Karl Rove should be frog-marched from the White House and brought forcibly before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
On LE, host Wolf Blitzer cited the Washington Post in arguing that al Qaeda in Iraq was no threat to the U.S. mainland. National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley argued that this was because they had their hands full in Iraq; if we left, they would certainly try to attack us here. In other news, Hadley said that we would not deal with the Palestinian government of Prime Minister Ismael Haneyeh because they had not renounced violence, recognized Israel, and agreed to abide by previous agreements.
The show-by-show review is beneath the fold.

Good stuff, as usual.
Well, I wish I could say the same, but when YOUR looks go honey, I will read your posts with more objectivity. :-)
