What is this, true confessions? I quit too but I still miss it. Nothing quite like a cig now and then. It's the daily habit of smoking that's the killer.
The nicotine patches are helpful and also Commit lozenges.

My daughter's high school American history textbook had the Bay of Pigs fiasco happening during the Eisenhower administration.
It's no wonder our kids know nothing about history.
Evidently the textbooks are not allowed to lay any defeats or failures at the feet of the democrats.

Shoot...John Edwards was down in NO this week telling the people that their problems are all Pres. Bush's fault and that the mean old GOP doesn't care about them..
See, he thinks that the idea of "individual responsibility" is ridiculous...he thinks it should be "shared responsibility..that we are all responsible for each other"
At least that is what he told Sissy Chrissy (Peace Corps) Matthews the other night...
Oh..and he thinks that faith based groups are just peachy.

Photos that need no comment, I think ...
To: Earthdweller
Well I guess you told me, Mr. or Ms. Earthdweller. However, I was replying to another poster's comment about the dread of the Dems coming into power in January. Unless you been living in a cave the past 6 years, we have experienced constant disrespect and vile behavior shown toward our president, military and nation by the left. This funeral is a refreshing reminder of leadership, dignity, our fine military, and the tradition of patriotism that our country has always embraced.
No need to pray for me...I was not making political hay or being disrespectful. I loved President Ford and am honored to have lived during his presidency and to now witness history this weekend. And for the record, I am a Miss.
To: Howlin
I missed a large portion of the thread. Has anyone said why Rumsfeld was not in attendance?

Thanks.
We do have our work cut out for us over the next 2 years...
Provide help and support to President Bush and his administration.
Keep an eye on the House and Senate and their feet to the fire.
Find, develop and elect decent Republican Congressmen and Senators.
Find a Republican presidential candidate who doesn't totally suck
Work our butts off to keep the Clintons out of the White House.
In between, we need to keep the Muslim Fascists from taking over the world and making all of the above mere details....

Rumsfeld is snowed in in New Mexico because of the blizzard.
To: OldFriend
He is praising Ford and talking about how he brought strong people into his administration like Rumsfeld and Cheney.
I heard him say that I really really did! Larry actually said that ????
What a bizarre time we are living in
