Canteen FRiends ~ Radix

[MoJo2001]

I'm just a ray of too much energy and time out here. If it rains, big deal. It's only rained half of the summer. So? If Virginia is not out of the drought yet, it isn't MoJo's fault or God's for that matter. Outside of that, life is grand. The day is beautiful. My house is quiet. And I'm ready to have some fun today! Woohoo!! *HUGS*

[Soaring Feather]

Good morning Little Diva!!
*HUGS*
I am doing well today thank you.
How are you doing?
It is really chilly here burr!!!
It will warm up later on but the house is chilly.
I want to turn the furnace on!!!!
Have a great day Little Diva.

[MoJo2001]

Did you have a nightmare last night?

Don't worry!! It wasn't a nightmare! It was just the Presidential Debates.

Can you believe we have to put up with that from now until Election Day next year. I wish there was a DO NOT MAIL list for those stupid Campaign Flyers and brochures trying to sugarcoat the uselessness of the average politician.

Here's a thought: Why not save all the millions of dollars being spent for campaigns and send all the money to the troops or their families. Send our troops and their families on vacation when they return. Wow! That would actually be too useful, huh?? Forget about it! Logic and Politics don't mix!

[MoJo2001]

TUrn the Furnace on???

Please! I haven't turned my AC off yet! LOL!

[MoJo2001]

Oh! I know why I am in a grand mood. Israel, our ally and friend, rid the world of another terrorist. Yep! Another one of those SOBS departed this Earth in a horrible fashion. Isn't that grand? Someone who deserved to die in the most horrible way..did! Woohoo!! Thank you, Israel!!

If you are reading this and are totally offended, keep in mind that Israel is doing nothing different than we are!!

[Fawnn]

You drinking quadruple espressos today? (With a Mountain Dew chaser?) ;)

g'mornin'!!!

[MoJo2001]

LOL!! I haven't had any coffee or Mountain Dew today. Nope!! I had a Cinnabon today! Hehehe!! WOOHOO!

[Fawnn]

A question from yesterday's OpinionJournal.com Best of the Web Today:

Was FDR a failure because he never caught Hitler?

Discuss. ;)

[Fawnn]

I got some Vietnamese cinnamon, which supposedly is the kind they use in Cinnabons. It sure smells like it! I hate to use the stuff; I just wanna sit around and sniff the jar. ;)

[Mr. Silverback]

Here's today's feeble attempt at humor for the troops:

An Update on the old Two Sows Story: New Dairy Business Practices

IRAQI CORPORATION
You have two cows.
They go in hiding.
They send radio tapes of their mooing.

POLISH CORPORATION
You have two bulls.
Employees are regularly maimed and killed attempting to milk them.

FLORIDA CORPORATION
You have a black cow and a brown cow.
Everyone votes for the best looking one.
Some of the people who like the brown one best, vote for the black one.
Some people vote for both.
Some people vote for neither.
Some people can't figure out how to vote at all.
Finally, a bunch of guys from out-of-state tell you which is the best looking cow.

NEW YORK CORPORATION
You have fifteen million cows.
You have to choose which one will be the leader of the herd, so you pick
some fat cow from Arkansas.

[MoJo2001]

LMAO! Sniffing isn't my thing, but I must say that I could have bought some Vietnamese Cinnamon much cheaper than I paid for my Cinnabon!!

[MoJo2001]

I read something about that.

It's hard to be a failure at catching someone that puts a gun to his head. (Supposedly) Anyways, I don't care how Hitler left this Earth. I hope he left it in the most horrible way imaginable. The only consolation that we can have is knowing that he is rotting in Hell next to the other tyrannical brutes that walked this Earth.

Besides, I can blame FDR for the other failures in his Administration that led to our government still taking taxes from us today. What a loser in that aspect. No politician will step up and stop taking Federal taxes from your check or the Social Security deductions. (Of which most people in my generation, DO NOT EXPECT WILL SEE OR BE AROUND WHEN WE ARE IN THE RETIREMENT AGE GROUP)

[Fawnn]

You have to choose which one will be the leader of the herd, so you pick some fat cow from Arkansas.

LOL!!!

I'm gonna paste some more stuff from OpinionJournal.com's Best of the Web Today:

Great Moments in Palestinian Parenting
An Israeli raid in Hebron killed two Hamas terrorists, the Jerusalem Post reports. Palestinian Arabs say a 13-year-old boy also died when he was hit by shell shrapnel. And what was the boy doing there? "Standing on the sidelines watching the action with his family." Sounds like a great show to take your kid to.

On the site, the Best of the Web Today's JAMES TARANTO's headlines links will take you to the actual stories. (The actual headlines are the ones in quotation marks.)

Hey, Whatever Floats Your Boat
"Giant Dino Feces Excites Researchers"--headline, United Press International, Sept. 7

Whatever You Do, Don't Tell Anyone!
"Air Force Launches Top Secret Satellite"--headline, CNN.com, Sept. 9

This one is a reoccurring one:

Generalissimo Francisco Franco Is Still Dead
"Diplomat: No New Missile at N. Korea Parade"--headline, Reuters, Sept. 9

[MoJo2001]

Hey! Aren't we discussing? LOL!

[MoJo2001]

Whatever You Do, Don't Tell Anyone!
"Air Force Launches Top Secret Satellite"--headline, CNN.com, Sept. 9

I was at the Post Office the other day and I was standing in line with 2 WWII Vets and they were angry with the news media discussing everything that our military does. One of them suggested that those reporters that put our troops in harms way because this need to be first should be placed in Gitmo next to those other terrorists. He had a point!

[Fawnn]

I thought you'd appreciate the piece about "great moments in Palestinian parenting." (It amazes me how people try to claim Israel's actions are the same as the terrorist acts perpetrated by the Palestinians. Yes, terrorist acts! "Freedom fighters" my Aunt Fanny! ... I'll stop myself before I rant about more stuff not appropriate for this thread.) ;)

Hitler/Saddam. Either way, we stopped 'em from butchering more people! It's a matter of time before Osama is literally bad history, too.

I think I need to go read some Dave Barry or something. ;)

[Fawnn]

Hey! Aren't we discussing? LOL!

Patience, grasshopper. (I have a short attention span and am easily distracted, remember? ... Ohhhhhhh, sparkly things!!!....)

[MoJo2001]

My grandmother always said to pray for peace in the Middle East when I was little. It's hard to pray for the peace of terrorists.

[MoJo2001]

YE!

[MoJo2001]

FEEL THE LOVE!!
