The color red to paint with but to wear it's greens and blues. Animals to pet and play with or watch in the wild but rarely to eat. Veggies! Rice and beans! Artisan goat cheeses and California wines!

"For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace." President Barack Obama, January 20, 2009

  • HIS IS A TOAST .... TO US ... FOR THE MEN WHO HAVE US,
    THE LOSERS WHO HAD US,
    AND THE LUCKY PEOPLE WHO WILL MEET US!!
    You have been hit...

    You have been considered one of the 10 prettiest ladies with a kind, warm and loving heart. Once you have been hit, you have to hit 10 pretty ladies with kind, warm and loving hearts.
    If you get hit again you know you're really pretty and kind.
    If you fail to forward this, you'll have ugliness for 10 years.
    So hit 10 pretty ladies to let them know they are pretty -- both on the inside and the outside - and that they are loved and cared for.

    SEND THIS TO PRETTY LADIES, TO BRIGHTEN THEIR DAY, INCLUDING THE ONE WHO SENT IT TO YOU! REMIND LADIES TO BE INFORMED, AWARE AND BE CHECKED FOR THEIR HEALTH'S SAKE... TELL THEM THAT NO ONE WANTS TO LOSE THEM - AFTER ALL, THEY ARE PRETTY LADIES WITH KIND, WARM LOVING HEARTS......

    All you are asked to do is keep this circulating (even if to one person).

  • Thanks for the invite - it is quite timely given what has happened this year. I find myself searching and reading than ever before, and in a funny way, the tragedy has made me even more religious.

  • Working 12 hour days selling cars and tired of some of the BS has led to a short break. I'm here, just less active.

    Still protesting the loss of friends for no reason with the name. Grae will return, soon.

  • I'm so glad to have you as a friend. Barry Lyndon is a gem, a favorite through a friend's recommendation. Sometimes a seemingly small detail connects two people. I am so sorry about your sister. My baby sis is 49, diagnosed 2 years ago with ovarian cancer. At last there seems to be a remission, so we are living life as loudly as possible.

    I have a special connection with Thailand, so I'll add this:

    In a comment below, you referenced - badly, IMO - Nixon's southern strategy. He's gone but the same cold-eyed, cold-hearted, opportunists can be seen actively encouraging the worst in the GOP. The litmus test for being other than a RINO has little to do with the true values of the party and everything to do with the foolishly short-sighted and opportunistic party leadership. Like Nixon, they think they're riding the zeitgeist; like Nixon, they're swelling the ranks with religious, racial and moral bigots; and like Nixon, their interest is power, not the well-being of the nation.

Betcha didn't think we had one.... democrats pretty darned conservative democrats wing betcha They and the moderate Republicans meet in the middle (and that middle is pretty far to the right of what it was even 30 or 40 years ago).

  • What do you think of Joe Lieberman

    +3 raves I avoid thinking about him whenever possible.

    We invaded, 'bombed them into the dark ages' as some of our fine citizens wanted (of course, they've been bombed into the dark ages by others) and then high-tailed it for Iraq, abandoning those who had become our allies, believing we would help them, to the Taliban or an opportunistic warlord.

    This does disturb me. And I would love a non-military solution.     (more)

  • How do you react to people who act holier than thou?

    +2 raves I avoid them.
