Good evening, PigRigger. Long time no see. Hope all is well on your end. That black out must have an ordeal - good to hear you are OK. Kudos to the New Yorkers for being resilient.

It almost makes this cranky old sergeant think twice on how less irredeemable today's youth might be...

Actually, it's not as hopeless as we may think. Majority of the time the media only focuses on the errant youth but there are still so many of them that are on the right track. At least 3 close friends of one of my nephews are in the Military proudly serving their country. Other friends of my nieces and nephews are doing volunteer work for their communities. All is well.

LOL! Now that is the coolest watermelon that I have ever seen.

Speaking of Lord of the Rings, the DVD for the Two Towers will be in stores this August 26th!!! ALRIGHT! I will be at Best Buy first thing in the morning. LOL!

I firmly believe, wait......if I may be so bold as to jump in the middle here....oh heck, here I go.

Ahem.

I firmly believe that the youth of today, for the most part are AWESOME people. It's just that you hear about the stinkers more than the good ones. And THAT'S not right!

Returning you to your regularly scheduled conversation...

[LaDivaLoca]

Great poem, Trike! Passing this on to email.

Good Night Blessing for the Troops

Blessings on you this evening 
May the stars in heaven
light your way into the
Milky Way of dreams 

May your day tomorrow 
be filled with love 
laughter and joy... 

Taking away all heart ache 
left stinging... 
and unclouding your vision 
for clear sailing...

Americans, Iraqis defeat blaze

I agree, Kathy, they are all heroes. It's amazing what cooperation can accomplish. This terrorist act may be a setback in the rebuilding of Iraq however, with the Americans and the Iraqis cooperating in this situation will show everyone what can be done when they work together. I hope the rest of the country would take note.

Uhm........where are those environmentalists when you need them.....where is the outrage?

[LaDivaLoca]

Good evening, Gramma! How be you today?

Speaking of the youth of today, thank goodness for the internet and other sources of news. Otherwise, the rest of us will feel so despondent if we only depend on the mainstream media.

[Old Sarge]

Nope, just a big ol' American Flag to wave. Good enough.

[LaDivaLoca]

LOL! Thanks for the pancakes, Radix. That will be a good change of diet for my pets. Before long though, I'll end up with "fat" dragons just like tom's fat cats.

[Kathy in Alaska]

LOL!!

[LaDivaLoca]

I've been diligent in updating my system at home. At work today though is another story. ARGH! Shoot those worms!

[LaDivaLoca]

LOL! My favorite is this one

A police recruit was asked during an exam, "What would you do if you had to arrest your own mother?" He said, "Call for backup."

[LaDivaLoca]

LOL! Cute bunny. I had to look closely though because I thought it was french hamster.
