***Jim Robinson doesn't even pay us minimum wage. Anthing you get from free labor is better than nothing.***

Thanks for all you do. Too bad I now have to report Jim Rob for hiring illegals and paying them less than minimum.

(LOL)

Oh yeah. You have to careful when you eat salads in restaurants, especially if you have a delicate stomach.

The rusty looking ends on the lettuce is actually bacteria and you can get diarrhea so fast it isn't funny.

This was the President I remember throwing a perfect pitch right down the middle at the 2001 World Series. He threw a perfect pitch today.

Well said!

"They've been waving that white flag for 40 years"

Yes, but it just never seemed so blatant and dangerous. Thank God we've had good men rise up at the right times.

I'm doing well, Mama.

I turned my ankle and fell today though, so I'm hobbling a bit and keeping it iced and elevated, but it's nothing serious.

There's nothing lame about him and he's definitely not a duck.

The phrase is only used by those who have no respect for him to begin with.

It's an endless, meaningless threat, and it's used whenever the President doesn't dot the i of the malcontents............and in this case, even when he does.

Meaningless.

I know I am down to only a few threads that I can feel reasonably sure I won't have to scroll through a bunch of anti-Bush posts.

And, there aren't very many radio talk shows that I can listen to either.

I have the habit of spraining my ankle or torn ligaments in them. I have had casts on both at different time over the years. They say a sprain or torn ligaments are worse than breaks. I think they are from my experience. Hope you get to feeling better real soon. Did you read any of my posts about my taking my daughter and 2 grandchildren on a train trip in July? The kids are going to fly to Alaska to see their aunt and then flying from there to Seattle to meet us. I am really looking forward to it. Hubby and I had been planning one several months before he got so ill. So, he will be there in spirit with all of us.

I know...........and I know YOU know.

This one's minor. A few days of taking it easy and I'll be fit as a fiddle. :)

(Actually, my knee and hip hurt almost as much since I fell on them after my ankle twisted).

I've pretty much had it, sleuth.

Today I was listening to Rush, and when he started in on how perfect Reagan was and how people in the country were moving away from traditional morality because President Bush wasn't a 'conservative communicator' I just shouted at the radio "SHUT UP!" and turned it off.

My interest in politics (lifelong) is being sucked out of me.

Sorry to be such a downer on this thread...........

In that picture, Karl Rove looks like he has lost weight.

You're welcome :)

I like that photo too. The lady in the background looks especially sharp.

I think one look at the many recent thread titles with the errant "?" in the middle of them should have been a clue that there was a general problem somewhere. Thanks for all the work you do on this stie.
