Hope everyone is having a great afternoon!

Cap't. I think our little hobbit will do a great job digging latrines!!!!!

That job is surely what 'they' had in mind when 'they' created the time-worn saying, "It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it."

But Pip shouldn't have to! LOL!

Excellent, Billie. Very good pictures and captions. I didn't realize that you used to be so talented.

So what happened? :-)

Some ole skinny man wore me down; destroyed my confidence. :)

Thank You for adding my cousin to your "God Bless Our Military" list

You are welcome, Colleen. Try to stay warm up there!

The bears are bestest.

Along with birds. : )

Here's the best of the best then. :)

Hi, Molly - I guess you put your son to work shoveling snow then? :) Happy to see you again today!

[Billie]

His halo falls off a lot....guess that's what you like about him, huh? : )

My guess is that his halo seldom stays where it's 'sposed to! :)

Let me see if I can find Marty Robbins to 'accompany' us. :)

Cowboy Wolfie don't want no company.......

LOL

Hi, azgal! With Helen Thomas, to me, a lot of it is "Ugly is as ugly does". OK, that and not knowing how to put on lipstick. :)

On the US anti-terrorist campaign


Bush said it will involve "every means of diplomacy, every tool of intelligence, every instrument of law enforcement, every financial influence, and every necessary weapon of war".
Hinted it would be longer than the 1991 Gulf war and that, unlike the Kosovo war, it would involve ground troops — with the likelihood that US soldiers would be killed.
"Americans should not expect one battle, but a lengthy campaign, unlike any other we have seen. It may include dramatic strikes, visible on television, and covert operations, secret even in success," he said.
Bush announced an "Office of Homeland Security" would be created to coordinate the US defence against future terrorist attacks.
"I have a message for our military: Be ready. I have called the armed forces to alert, and there is a reason. The hour is coming when America will act, and you will make us proud," he said.
"The course of this conflict is not known, yet its outcome is certain. Freedom and fear, justice and cruelty, have always been at war, and we know that God is not neutral between them," he added.

Pardon the Freudian's Lip.
Was supoposed to be "Poor Pitiful Pippin."

Just a little cold, and I am feeling better...your medicinal hug is quite an effective remedy...thank you...)

It's going to take a lot more than lipstick to save Helen Thomas from uglyness.

I guess you put your son to work shoveling snow then? :}

Good deduction!

Peace Talks

Saddam Hussein and George W. Bush meet up in Baghdad for the first round of talks in a new peace process.

When George sits down, he notices three buttons on the side of Saddam's chair. They begin talking. After about five minutes Saddam presses the first button. A boxing glove springs out of a box on the desk and punches Bush in the face. Annoyed, Bush carries on talking as Saddam laughs.

A few minutes later the second button is pressed. This time a big boot comes out and kicks Bush in the shin. Again Saddam laughs, and again George carries on talking, not wanting to put off the bigger issue of peace between the two countries. But when the third button is pressed and another boot comes out and kicks Bush square in the privates, he's finally had enough.

I'm headin' back to Washington!" he calmly tells the Iraqi. "We'll finish these talks in two weeks in Washington!"

A fortnight passes and Saddam flies to the United States for talks. As the two men sit down, Hussein notices three buttons on Bush's chair and prepares himself for the Yank's retaliation. They begin talking and George presses the first button. Saddam ducks, but nothing happens. George snickers.

A few seconds later he presses the second button. Saddam jumps up, but again nothing happens. Bush roars with laughter. When the third button is pressed, Saddam jumps up again, but again nothing happens. Bush falls on the floor in a fit of hysterics.

"Forget this," says Saddam. "I'm going back to Baghdad!"

George W. says through tears of laughter, "What Baghdad?"

Good news everyone! I went by the store today to find a new wine to buy and looked on the label of a bottle of Beringer wine (which I had assumed was German made) and it turns out it's made in California! I was so unhappy about having to give that brand up in my boycott of Germany and now I don't have to!

I like to cook with it and sip it a little while I cook. :) It's a pink colored wine...says White Zinfandel on the label.

Squeezy Hugs from BillieBlue.....love it! : )
