This picture really gives you a sense of the enormity and size of the undertaking in NYC:

Oh my, annie. Look how small they are compared to the piles and piles of debris.

All this while his Presidential Library team goes about preparing to take down the monument to slavery on the grounds. Whataguy.

Start your GUILDin' day with a l'il heartwarmer!

Story about a future Guildette in the making! Link. Please note: she has a genuine sense of caring and concern; she makes something happen unstead of sitting on her little fanny and whining about the sad state of affairs; she has a good grasp on what matters vs. what doesn't; all her clothes and accessories match; she has a mind of her own and she uses it!

Ah! The illustration! Not on the website. Here it is --

Usually we only see these pictures from a news report. These up close pics with people there really show the enormity of the attack. Thanks annie.

Wow. The first Black President sure has that group fooled. If a Republican was bulldozing this, it would have made headlines.

[Howlin]

Come on, annie. You know that doesn't count because it's "HIM," The Great Black Hope!

[Howlin]

I wonder if anybody will even ask the NAACP or Jesse Jackson about it. / sarcasm.

[WIMom]

What would be interesting is seeing is a side-by-side of her listening to x42 and our President. Look at that expression compaired to the bored, ho-hum attitude during the speach to both houses.

[Beep]

Wow. Just -- wow. I still cannot believe all of this. I think I'm still in shock. ;-{

[CheneyChick]

Ick. Is that pearls x42's hag is wearing?

[WIMom]

Have you ever given thought to doing a Guild List? I see Jim is working on that stuff now.

Hmmmmm -- excellent idea. Are there pix of that on the 'net??

[Beep]

Faux pearls, no doubt. Mustn't upset the oysters! (But wiping out 6,000 U.S. citizens is okay; at least, we cannot retaliate, because naturally "Terrorists are people too.")

/sarcasm

[WIMom]

What a great story, SLJP. Thanks for sharing it.

[CheneyChick]

We used to do a ping list every day and it got really long! We've been asking for this for a long time - this is great news!

[Beep]

Thanks WIMom! The illustration was based on a photo of my nieces. I was really pleased with that! If you want to see it to compare, let me know?! I need to scale it down anyway. It's a huge file and takes up megaspace on my website! (I wrote the story, in case anyone didn't make the connection. It's one of my published doo-dads. In a few really nice books too; the illustration is from the most recent -- a "coffee table" Christmas compilation.)

[CheneyChick]

Duh. I think I misunderstood the Bump List. It won't actually ping people, right?

[WIMom]

Plastic and paint.
