Diva...so sorry I missed you.

[Dubya]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATHY.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Most wedding guests just throw rice: Not the men of Matsunoyamamachi, Japan. They throw the bridegroom -- in this case, hurling him down a snowy slope. The tradition dates back to Japan's Edo Period (1603-1867), when a group of local men tossed a groom who married a local girl out of revenge.

No Regrets

Thanks for such a powerful reminder.

"I SUPPORT THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF"

[Kathy in Alaska]

"In the eyes of a child, you rank right up there with God. You have all the power to heal a boo-boo, scare away the monsters under the bed, patch a broken heart, police a slumber party, ground them forever, and love them without limits, so one day they will, like you, love without counting the cost."

[TEXOKIE]

"LOL! You noticed the smaller critters, did ya?"

How could I miss them? They were in the foreground, and definitely jumping around and begging for attention!

"And let me take a moment here to compliment you on how well you did while you were in charge of "crumbs". Our transportation was always returned in a spotless condition, mainly due to your taking your job of "Crumb Monitor" most seriously. Job well done, Tex. "

Awww shucks ma'am! I appreciate the high praise! Tonk's transports are always so wonderful, that it is an honor and privilege to try to care for them properly!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, Radix, for your kind words.

Thanks to you and 2LT Radix Jr for your service to our country.

[Kathy in Alaska]

ROTFLMAO!! Your bunny slippers for the ride are really cute and look most serviceable.

I posted this in early December, but with events in the news today, I thought you might enjoy my little doggerel again.

SADDAM

Saddam was a man
Who thought he had a PLAN!
that would confound UN's Hans Blix
But what knocked him on his tush,
was President W BUSH!
Bush made a push instead
against that town of Bagdad!
Our guys unloaded
their shells exploded
Saddam came apart
like a noisome green fart.
And that's the end of Saddam!

LOL I saw them and couldnt pass them up!

Plus they had a sticker on the bottom that said:

[Kathy in Alaska]

"Guess who passed out when they did the blood test"

Does this mean you won't be doing this anytime in the near future?

"After some searching they found what the problem was and are going to fix it."

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

"Had some very interesting conversations with WW II AND Viet Nam Vets on van trip up and back."

Super!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good poem, trike, and thanks, cote, for posting it in the Canteen.

[Soaring Feather]

Great Texokie! Now you can stomp his a$$ with these.
How's that?

[Kathy in Alaska]

You shop well, Beth.

Out the door for home. Freezing rain this afternoon. I will be tiptoeing home. Back in a bit. Play nice.
