President Barack Obama finishes addressing employees at the Caterpillar plant in East Peoria, Ill., Thursday, Feb. 12, 2009.
MjL => Cat CEO lies to President Obama about returning laid off workers if Stimulas Plan is passed. Owens pulls typical GOP sand-bag routine, telling Obama one thing the day before and something else in front of the cameras after Obama quoted him about returning workers.
One winter morning a husband and wife in northern Minnesota were listening to the radio during breakfast. They heard the announcer say, We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snow plows can get through. So the good wife went out and moved her car.
A week later while they are eating breakfast again, the radio announcer said, We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snow plows can get through. The good wife went out and moved her car again.
The next week they are again having breakfast, when the radio announcer says, We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow and ... Just then the electricity went off. The wife had a worried look on her face when she said, Sweetheart, I dont know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the snow plows can get through?
With the love and understanding in his voice that all men who are married exhibit, the husband replied, Why dont you just leave it in the garage this time dear?
Happy Valentines Day to everybody! Nine years ago in the year 2000 I quit smoking on this day! Who would have thought it was possible I could last so long?
Tracey has gone out to brave the new snow to make her way to work. She will be working long hours today and again at the first of next week to make up for the time she took last weekend to go visit Noah & Denise. It is always something! And she still has to do all the charting on paper as the computers are still not up and running yet. Hopefully they will have the new software running Monday for her or she will be using the ink pen again then.
I am hopeful her new replacement phone will arrive today. I managed to get her old phone to start up for a few minutes. It says the battery is low but when I hook the charger up to it ... it dies. I am hoping to use the new charged battery to keep the old phone running long enough to transfer all her address and data files to the computer and then to her new telephone. Eventually we shall see.
