With all due respect to Cynthia Cooper, Coleen Rowley and Sherron Watkins, Time's Persons of the Year 2002, this triumvirate of 'whistleblowers' were not the people with the greatest impact on shaping the year's events -- Time's bench mark. Media celebrity prima donnas, perhaps, but Persons of the year? Ah, don't think so.

You got that right .. when I heard their names, I thought to myself, You have got to be kidding.

When I watched Coleen Rowley at the Senate Committee Hearing, she had NOTHING to say or offer and made the Dems look like fools

BRAVO JOHN .. as always .. you have the BEST 2 CENTS!!!

[LadyX]

You shoulda said "Happy Current Mixed-Up-Monday" Mister Mixer..:)))

[MistyCA]

John's the best! My question to you is, "what is normal?"

[jwfiv]

It's that danglin' modifier what makes us men...I'll take one Y chromasome, please...)

[LadyX]

It's always so good to have you appear, deadhead.

May we in fact celebrate every day as a 'New Year' beginning for us, making the most of the opportunities that are presented therein.

Hi, Budge - thanks for your mail - and thanks for coming!

[Billie]

Afternoon to you, Miss Maggie. Trust you had a wonderful Christmas - enjoyed your 'fish' mail. Amazing photos. :)

[Mudboy Slim]

LOL...MUD

[Billie]

Afternoon, Mo - have to agree with you about John's 2 Cents! Wouldn't it be great to read columns like this in all the newspapers and news magazines!

[Billie]

"What is normal?"

LOL! Well, for me, it is blessed {{{{{{{{{quiet}}}}}}}}}} - a little dull, too. LOL!

Good post today, and a good reminder that the Person of the Year actually has to accomplish something and shape events.Time's choices failed miserably in that regard.

[MeekOneGOP]

Excellent 2 cents, JH2 ! Thanks. I agree. President Bush !

Just in case TTM's "gift" doesn't hit the spot, I brought sandwiches for an afternoon snack...

The holiday was special indeed, with one day three grandchildren driving down from Columbia - Kyle, 17, and my two granddaughters, Aubrey, 20 (a sophomore in college) and Morgan, 12 - to spend Thursday afternoon visiting.

Friday, my sister, Anne, and her husband came by on their way back to Florida!

Thank you for acknowledging the photographs - God is indeed AWESOME, not only in demonstrating His Power, but showing you beyond any possible doubt it all was HIS doing in such events!!

Afternoon All from overcast Memhis..it is about 60 out there with a promise of RAIN later. Right on the mark as usual John. GWB is Person of the Year.

[deadhead]

Hi there! Looks like I goofed when I posted my picture...oops! Enjoy your day.

[Mixer]

Thanks for the reminder

Happy FR Anniversary to all!!!

[Mixer]

Hey Mama Bear.....I forgot all about those swirly letters. Thanks for posting them : )

[The Thin Man]

Just in case TTM's "gift" doesn't hit the spot, I brought sandwiches for an afternoon snack...

Dave, I can't believe you would insult Billie by offering her some lousy sandwiches when she could have a delicious fruitcake.

You probably want the fruitcake for yourself. :)

[Diver Dave]

You probably want the fruitcake for yourself. :)

Yep! Love that stuff... As long as it's Mom's recipe -- always was much better than commercial products. :)
