| Time sneaks up on you like a windshield on a bug. John Lithgow |
 Michael T. forwarded this picture with the comment:I liked this shirt but since buying it I have wondered if it could be considered racist, I certainly didnt think so when I bought it. I decided to share the picture and ask the question ... do you think it is racist? I personally didnt think too much one way or the other when I first saw the picture but after reading the question I have to admit there are probably people who would immediately think that way ... but Im not sure I would have without the question being asked of me. |
 | Sen. Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn., makes a statement on Capitol Hill in Washington, Thursday, Nov. 6, 2008, after meeting with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nev. Lieberman appears likely to hold onto his prized chairmanship of the Senate Homeland Security Committee despite lingering hard feelings over his vocal support for GOP nominee John McCain during this years presidential campaign. MjL => Once again the Democrats play politics instead of doing the right thing. Lieberman should have been drummed out of any leadership and the caucus altogether because he has proven that his personal gain is his only goal. |
Three Old Grandmas Three mischievous Old Grandmas were sitting on a bench outside their nursing home when an old Grandpa walked by. One of the old Grandmas yelled out saying, We bet we can tell exactly how old you are. The old man said, Theres no way you can guess it, you old fools. One Grandmas said, Sure we can! Just drop your pants and under shorts and we can tell your exact age. Embarrassed just a little, but anxious to prove they couldnt do it, he dropped his drawers. The old Grandmas asked him to first turn around a couple of times and to jump up and down several times. Then they all piped up and yelled, Youre 87 years old! Standing with his pants down around his ankles, the old gent asked, How in the world did you guess? Slapping their knees and grinning from ear to ear, the three old ladies happily yelled in unison ... We were at your birthday party yesterday! |

 Another indication of how deeply mired in the past our country really is ... the inability to move our leadership into the current century. It makes absolutely no sense to me whatever to restrict email access by our President. We have got to stop living in fear and start facing our challenges in order to move forward. Email can easily be more private than either a fax or a phone call but the idiots who make these decisions dont realize this. |

| The way I understood it, the reasoning behind the e-mail restriction is because Congress can subpoena his e-mail. They can just as easily subpoena the recordings of his phone calls, Im sure, so that doesnt make a lot of sense. Oh well, though |
