President Bush began the day by meeting with senior members of Congress, who later announced that there will be a resolution regarding Iraq before the elections. Bush then met with a group of cancer survivors, including Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong, and announced an increase in cancer research funding. The President also met with Czech Republic President Vaclav Havel. Enjoy your daily dose of Dubya!

You're probably right about the farmer vote being Republican. I don't know, just my impression that the South Dakota farmers will vote for whoever promises them the best program. I never know, my friends that I think are conservative turn around and tell me they hate Bush, then the ones I thought were liberal tell me they love him. I give up!

Aaarrrghhhh! It's Wednesday and I forgot, AGAIN, too! Sorry MG. I feel like such a schmuck.

It's a derogatory name the British have for the French.

The frogs are the French.

[ThePythonicCow]

who are the frogs?

The French.

From Frogs and Myth:

The French and the Frogs

For some reason, the French have been given the nickname Frogs...There are many different theories about how this came to be...

• The story I had always heard was that the nickname dates waaay back to sometime around the 18th century, when Paris was surrounded by many swamps...The French nobility that would visit Versailles apparently tended to refer to Parisians as frogs because of the swampy surroundings...and only later did the term get picked up to describe the French in general.
• Another story I've heard was that American soldiers adopted the nickname for the French during the World War II because they ate frog legs and hid well when camouflaged.
• I've also heard that a frog used to be on the French Flag, before the Fleurs de Lis was adopted when King Clovis took the throne....
• In fact, there are so many stories....I don't think anyone really knows for sure...If you have any knowledge on the origin of this nickname, please let me know!

Well, for some reason ALL DAY, I was thinking it was Tuesday so I don't know if a reminder would help but it certainly wouldn't hurt. Probably Wednesday a.m. would be even better for those of us who are short on memory cells.

My two favorites are the red one with gold design that looks like watermelon from a distance, and the blue one with the electric yellow design that looks like aqua from a distance! Both of them give him such a glow! They are definitely his colors!

[SuziQ]

I have Creat-a-card and it came with a calendar. You can put reminders on the calendar and every day when you turn on your puter, it tells you what appointments you have for that day and you can program it to remind you of an appointment up to 7 days in advance. It also reminds you of birthdays, anniversaries, whatever. I wouldn't remember anything without it.

[Kath]

He does that out of envy.
