President Bush was granted trade promotion authority today by the Senate, and later thanked them for working so hard on this issue. Bush also met with Jordan's King Abdullah and discussed the war on terror, the crisis in Israel, and future actions against Iraq. Although King Abdullah made it clear that an attack on Iraq could lead to unrest in the entire region, Bush made it clear that he would not change his mind regarding a regime change. On the lighter side, Bush signed the Nursing Reinvestment Act of 2002, which will create federal assistance programs for nursing students as well as support a public service campaign encouraging people to become nurses.

She makes great chocolate chip cookies and tv dinners. oh...swell.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Uhhhh.....how long can you last w/homemade chocolate chip cookies?

If you need more substantive food, I'll have to ask Mama to come along. Now SHE can cook.

[homeschool mama]

I remember buying TWO candies for a penny! Bazooka bubblegum. Candy bars were a nickel when I was a kid. Pop was 25 cents.

[Brad’s Gramma]

and tv dinners.

Do not.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Pop was 25 cents.

Ya sold your grandfather for only 25 cents????? Shoot, I would've asked for a little more.

[homeschool mama]

oh puleeeze.

[homeschool mama]

FOFL...you are so good, grammie.

[reDublican]

Once, I went for six weeks on nothing but chocolate chip cookies....oh wait, that was a dream I had. Never mind.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Hey! I'll even buy you Starbucks. You like Starbucks?

[homeschool mama]

ooohhh! Starbucks! Had one of their Coconut Frappucinos last week. YUM

If I know anything about you at all, Lawgirl, it's that you always land on your feet. No matter what's thrown at you, you shake it off and get right back climbing up that hill. You will do this again, of that I am sure.

You are going to get to the top of that hill one of these days. You are a survivor. I have faith in you that you WILL pass the Missouri bar and you WILL get the job practicing law that you have always dreamed of.

[homeschool mama]

bump!

[Brad’s Gramma]

And I third that one!!!!

[reDublican]

Do I like Starbucks?! Does a tall, white chocolate mocha with extra whipped cream cause hardening of the arteries?
What a silly question!

[reDublican]

By the way, what region of the country are you folks from?
Just curious. I'm originally from a small town in the Southern California desert, but now I live in Washington, D.C.

[Brad’s Gramma]

.....and you'll be arriving, when?

[Brad’s Gramma]

Oh for Pete's sake. You moved??????? Now how the heck are we going to get all of this stuff done??????

I'm in Southern California. My daughter, Dear, is continually on the lam moving around.

[reDublican]

My sixth sense tells me that the original description of your daughter's movement--"on the lam"--is correct ;-)

[Brad’s Gramma]

You are correct. Oh. Very correct. Poor thing. Gramps and I have tried so hard with her.

BTW, isn't it mighty late where you're at? And do you know where I put my glasses??????????????????

[reDublican]

Oh good grief. So you are from Southern California. I had a wierd feeling that you were, that's why I asked. (It's that sort-of smart-assed, SoCal wit) I've spent the last two years in Culver City, myself. I'll be visiting my brother in Torrance before October, though, because I have an air voucher that will expire if I don't use it. Who knows? Maybe we'll do the cookie/Starbucks thing after all.....Then, later on, we can recount to the rest of the ladies on this thread how we were all rushed to the hospital with sugar/caffeine shock!
