Look behind "Mom" - it's definitely Spring there! That tree is blooming up a storm! (Apple? Cherry? Don't know what, but it's in full bloom anyway!)

Just trying to be helpful, 4. Just trying to be helpful.

I am so concerned that you might overdo one of these days standing there individually burning the toasts.

You had a birthday and you are getting older....need to take better care of yourself, you know.

Thanks for the quote and the great graphic - it has all the right things - the flag, the eagle, and Lady Liberty! Hard to beat that!

.. As near as they can tell, 'undocumented immigrants' let a campfire get out of control with disastrous results..

Scratching my head here, it seems I may have heard this reason a time or two before.......I could be wrong, but.........

Here at the Canteen, we never tire of the pomp and circumstance of raising and lowering our flag, do we.

And here is a refresher course on how to fold our American Flag properly.

1. Hold the flag lengthwise and fold it in half. Next continue to hold the flag lengthwise and fold it once more so that it is one-fourth of the original width.

2. Starting at the end with the stripes, fold the flag over into a small triangle.

3. Continue to fold the flag into triangles.

4. Complete the folding with the blue and stars on top.

Thanks for the link and the info, oldvike. Will try to watch it. :)

Work? NO!

You're not wrong. Probably the wrong thread on which to make the point...
It frosts a lot of us here that we aren't doing enough to stem the tide of illegal crossers and the reducing the amount of physical damage they cause.
As a case in point, two illegals were arrested yesterday for butchering and barbecuing a rancher's bull calf. The two young men (19 and 20) hadn't had anything to eat in 4 days. I guess they don't get taught respect for the property of others where they came from. < /rant>

PS: Time to get some work done, BBL!

She says, "Seven Ten cap, oil cap, I don't care what you call it. I just need one, and I don't see what is so darn funny about it." If you read "710" upside down, it spells OIL!

GOOD one who!!!!ROTFLOL!

[Desert Lizard]

Yes, sorry. I wish they would add an "edit post" option with these new changes. This is the corrected link.

Cool post #65!! Thanks for the refresher course.

Things in S. AZ are great today! A comfortable 72 degrees, clear sunny sky, you know, just like that song about the deer and antelope...!!

I think even I would take that today, feet are cold and it's miserable here with the wind....

Glad to hear the fires are under control Bro, we've had fires too the last 2 summers in the Hills..bad news, for sure.....

Undocumented aliens huh...go figure. Good job INS..:^(
