In his state of denial anything's possible, my friend.
This too, you shall learn.
"And does Landru have any recourse?"
HA!!
Yea, I do.
Call his wife.
...& tattle on 'em. :o)
You said it, Mudboy!!
My father-in-law is retiring this year after professorin' fer over 30 years at W&M...MUD
Well, if getting the best & deepest tan in (my) history can be counted as "production"?
Yea; been kickin' real booty.
Tan lines to kill for; so K tells me.
Drives the fairer sex 30-somethings into a *frenzy*, I've noticed. :o)
"I miss ye though Lan..."
Why?
I'm around; although, due for another sabbatical, yesterday.
"I have column due to be printed, in view of advice you gave me last weekend...And I think I made you proud on this one..."
I'm sure you'll make me proud, Happy1; you always have.
More importantly (I'd bet) you've done yourself justice; while, learning a critical component constituting what's to become "your" niche'.
Naturally, you'll do me the homor of forwarding a copy of it to me, later? I need to read inspired stuff too, don't forget.
Might even consider posting [it] here to Black.
Lord knows Mud needs all the help he can get 'round this joint to keep it from going into a state of cardiac arrest.
"Landru...I love you..you are the bestest buddy an Irish gal could ever have!!!"
>blushing<
Just remember something here before ya go getting all gushy, H1.
This fight we're in & especially the one you've just witnessed??
Took but a *second* of time.
The fight goes 18 rounds. [read: an entire lifetime]
So just keep your eyes and ears open and pace yourself. OK?
Let them bring to you every inspiration you'll ever need to write articles having themes that'll really *connect* to the type of reader you're seeking.
Those who'll go outa their way to buy whatever pub your work ever appears because when you write, you're speaking "for" them.
Humans *love* to be validated today more than ever before in our history.
Validation takes *courage*, which as you know, is in very short supply.
You then, are to "be" their courage.
For your task to be any easier, it'd have to be made of velcro.
Doing so will be a lot more than just fun, it'll be job security.
...of the *best* kind. ;^)
Why?
Got something against money/ham/ale/ceegars/fill in the blank?
Now whether the boy ever pays up is another matter altogether; &, for the answer to that question?
...ask, The Sultan.
HAVE A GOOD DAY EVERYONE!!! "lil 88" is off to the big city today for a lunch appointment...have to get my city "fix" so I venture into Daley-land on occassion, leaving behind the relative safety of conservative DuPage County in the 'burbs. Wish me luck my FRiends!!! :o)
HA!!
You're learning just fine. ;^)
"Wish me luck my FRiends!!!"
Sure.
But you go now & make some of that luck stuff for yourself, too.
Brains, beauty, & courage combine to make for a real successs.
Of which you have in spades.
...OK?
SHEEEEEESH...CopperToneBoy's sure fullUVAhisself this mornin'...LOL!!!

"In my view, Bush´s most imperative contribution has been elevating the role of “Commander in Chief” to the most significant facet of the Presidency. At one time it was evident to everyone the importance of having an ever vigilant Commander in Chief but this function was forgotten and avoided during William Jefferson Clinton´s eight year “holiday from history.” Bush´s stand-off with the Chinese in April of 2001 showcased his direct approach to dealing with nations who are not automatically our friends. One shudders at the thought of what Al “Buddhist Temple” Gore would have said or done had he been in charge of our nation. George W. Bush has reminded us why we have this unwieldy federal government. We don´t have a government to promote the Peace Corps. We don´t have a government to provide subsidies to special interest groups. We don´t have a government to pay some states to compete more successfully against other states. The reason that we have a federal government is to protect the people of the United States of America. We could call the United Nations but they´d never answer our calls. We could call France or Germany but they´d recommend the joys of subservience as a solution. We must defend ourselves or no one else will. Our government exists to protect us both at home and abroad. It took a man of Bush´s magnitude to restore defense as the fundamental justification for the bureaucracy that we spend so much for in Washington. Defending the frontier is why Bush is in the Oval Office today."
Somewhat over-the-top aggrandizement of our Commander-in-Chief, but factual in many ways...MUD
Thank you, 'Dru...I think yer swell, too...MUD
If 'Dru or the Sultan are making that claim, they are fibbin'...MUD
Uh huh.
Now I'm positive it wasn't the light playing *tricks*.
..it is an earring.
I mean the man was at his *brillant* best the way he synopsized CNN's position on Ube {sp?} et al.
TO ANY CNN STORY he asked, "So just what DID CNN know & how long had they known it?"
...simply *superb*.
good thing you couldn't see the other side!
