Thanks for the ping Snugs. I’ve been quite busy lately, internet challenged, etc, but hope is well in your corner of the world.

I am amazed how draining it is and they are likely to be here for about another 10 days.

I can see where it would. That mischievious look on the president’s face is priceless. You can really see how much he is like his Mom in pictures like this one!

How does one get on a ‘ping’ list and how does it work?

That is a lot of work to have to put up with in your home, but bet it will look very nice once it’s finished.

God does work in mysterious ways sometime! LOL! This seems to be one of them!

I have seen the pattern emerging of the press and the democrats talking us into THINKING we’re in a recession, all the indicators to the contrary.

Why, we out here in West Texas are BEGGING for people to hire. There are FOR HIRE signs on every store front...including the store I work for. It’s incredible that we can be suckered like this!

People can be unbelievably idiotic — they know they’re doing fine, but can still be convinced that everyone else is doing horribly — after all, the MSM tells them so every day . . . no critical thinking abilities whatsoever! [Tomorrow is going to be particularly grating because the MSM is just waiting for the release of what they are going to portray as the worst ‘job report’ since the Great Depression!]
-

BTW: It seems as though the Texas economy is doing great (just read an article about the ‘surprising’— to the media — growth in the Houston area); yet another reason we’re thinking about moving to Texas some time during the next 2 or 3 years — just in time to help GWB with his library!

Hi! Ok, I’ve got a question for everyone, I missed the President dancing, does anyone happen to have a video link? My mom was telling me about it today, but since I’m back to working full time I don’t get much news lately. She said it was really cute too. :)

Come on out here. It’s a great place to be. We don’t put any stock in what the (as Tony Snow calls it) the “has-been media” say. We KNOW what’s going on. We see it every day. When Dairy Queen is paying nearly $9 an hour, there IS no recession!

I just shake my head when I hear the dramatic tones and see the panic in the headlines that we’re just one paycheck (or lack thereof) away from total devastation. It’s just not SO!

Buckles served as an ambulance driver in WWI after enlisting at age 15.

My hubby's Grandaddy did the same thing in WWI, but he was 26 at the time.

The Real Estate market is suffering the same thing. There are real problems in SOME areas of the country, but in others, the problem is peoples' perceptions. Housing values have dropped about 20% in our area, even though the economy is fine here, and unemployment is low. Folks just got spooked with the national news, and with the credit crunch, even people with good credit got worried that they'd be in trouble if they took on a mortgage, so they just aren't buying that first house, even though this is the perfect time to buy with lowered values and low interest rates. Unfortunately that just spirals up the line, because if someone doesn't buy that starter home, the seller of that starter home can't move up to something larger, and on and on.

Folks in real estate around here are just livid at all the negative press, because they know what the economic situation is, and they know that this area is not suffering from those problems, but still folks believe what they read, and interpret that to assume the same is going on around them.
