Our American president went to the National Security Agency in Ft. Meade, Maryland, to speak with staff and address the press there. Click here for text of his remarks. He also spoke with former clerks of Judge Alito's.

Laua Bush oversaw the "Coming Up Taller Awards" in the White House, an initiative of the U.S. President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities overseen by the first lady. This is for after-school events that promote the arts in youth.

Welcome to Sanity Island!

Thank you Gretchen, it is indeed my pleasure to be there for the troops! I broke a 31 consecutive week record and on such an important week! Some 24 hour thing that began Thursday night. I was NOT a happy camper!

I got a new computer today as well, he has a wide flat screen and for the first time I have internet access at work before I only had email.

I never used to get headaches. Just since October, I've been dealing with arthritis in my neck. I've had it in my lower back, pelvis and hip for a few years. (I have degenerative disc disease.)

Inside the NSA looks like CTU......

Great !! Isn't it so much nicer? You mean you weren't posting on FR at all during your workday?? Then that means ... you really ARE up 24 hrs. a day ... LOL...whenever do you sleep? How's your Dad doing ... I know the stress has to have been so tough on him physically .. mind/heart/body = definitely linked. God love him and keep him strong .. and you, too.

[STARWISE]

LOL!! Doing the Rummy rhumba.

What's CTU?

[STARWISE]

What's CTU?

Shall we tell her??

[GretchenM]

Have you been able to give some alternative input to your boss about America and our president?

[navynucmom]

It's the headquarters that is in the series 24...the one that Rush and Laura talk about all the time with Keifer Sutherland.....I always check out the daily photos of Bush and just had the thought that some of the pictures of inside the NSA looked like CTU...Counter Terrorists Unit....in the series

[navynucmom]

Counter Terrorism Unit...sorry

Been meaning to tell you that I am getting much better results using the horseradish in a jar, mixed with lemon juice, than when I was using the juicer. It must be because the juicer I had wasn't powerful enough. In any event, the sinus bleeding has stopped and the pain is less. I was not getting as good of results with antibiotics.

I'm curious what your sinus remedy is exactly ... I stay away from meds as much as possible, and your post caught my eye.

I sure sympathize about the headache. Those are horrible. The only time I get one is if I have eaten something with MSG in it. And that will do me in for an entire day.
Last week, I ate some beef vegetable soup at a friend's house. It was a potluck. I didn't know that anyone would cook beef for soup with MSG. I was miserable for 2 days.
I don't think I'm alone - most Chinese restaurants advertise no MSG. So I do wish people wouldn't hide it in other dishes.

You have a lot on your plate at the moment - trust that things improve soon.

Ouch! It's true, most people don't use it in everyday cooking. I can't have dairy and didn't think about my boss giving me a cake for my birthday. There was cream cheese in the frosting. :( The next day it was hard to say thank you for the cake, since it made me barf.

Starwise put me onto this and she has more info than I.

It's for knocking out sinus infections, although I suppose it would help sinus headaches too.

The recommended procedure is to get a high-power motor juicer and pulverize the snickers out of horseradish root, then mix the pulverized root with lemon juice (I juiced the lemon, peel, seeds, everything) and take 1 t. three times a day.

I burned out the motor on my juicer (horseradish root is very tough), so Star suggested I mix horseradish from a jar, with lemon juice. It's working better than when I used to pulverize it. I should be taking it three times a day.

Here is the apples picture that Starwise put up for you earlier

By the way what do you want on the toaster tonight

I have noticed we seem to be seeing a little more of the dogs and even the President mentioning him again maybe the PR machine has mentioned that people love to see or hear about the pets.
