Does it taste good? I have no idea what it is. :D
Thank you! Your pictures added immeasurably to the thread .. ;)
Thank you. I appreciate it. We have cubicle bound and I try to cover these events when I can.
Take care.
Forgot this. If the cropping isn’t exact I have to do some resizing to get them to match up, lol. That’s why that one is a bit more jerky, but the original two shots were a bit off too.
Yeah, I know. :)
Because Pres. Bush seemed to be quoting McCain's bottom line about amnesty for illegals.
BUMP!!
.
Yup -
- Cropping/Resizing
- Frame location corrections
- It would be great if they cameras were “fixed” as they sometimes are
Yeah, when they move around it messes things up, lol.
Probably more of us "white bums." You know how worthless we all are. ;)
LOL...I just read your profile. I think you’re the perfect woman!
I’m totally in love now!
Republican and Conservative are rapidly diverging.
Say what you will about Bush, every time I see that man I just get an overwhelming sense of security. He has not been perfect but, he has done a stellar job in the WOT. I will truly miss him and could not help but get a true sense of fear and dread every time the camera panned on Hillary or Obama.
I think America will get that same sense and will nominate the Republican candidate, even if it is McCain. The alternatives are just unthinkable!
Once you resort to name calling, especially against a FReeper with quite a bit of senority on you, you have already lost your argument.
LOL, I enjoyed that myself. Dubya kept the 'RATs a bit off balance and on their toes...
You stated this so truthfully. I don't think they are, either. They live to do one thing, and one one thing only...bitch and moan.
It matters not the person, or cause...in EVERY instance, EVERY conversation, they will find someone/something that they will trash and slander. They are, I believe, very miserable, pitifully unhappy people, I would feel sorry for them if they warranted any sympathy, they don't. IMO
Maybe another hurricane will hit at the right time.
