Love the bass on  Zep's 'Lemon Song" - John Paul Jones, I bow to thee.

Sarcasm, folks

The most important factor in deciding who to vote for in November: tax returns. Forget the consistent high unemployment, the record number of people on food stamps, high gas prices, the soaring deficit, border agents killed by weapons our gov't gives drug dealers etc. Nooooo, what's truly important is what paperwork they submit to the IRS.

I love this!

A Fatal Frame of Mind by William Rabkin

I finished the last of the five Psych tie-in novels by Willam Rabkin. This one was "A Fatal Frame of Mind", in which Shawn and Gus investigate a murder at an art museum that might lead back to an international cabal dedicated to finding Arthrur's Excalibur. I thought it was a hoot, and wish he'd write some more books in the series. B+ #68

A Quote

"This was a quality in the Major that came out time and again; he was always gentle with those who evoked impatience, and he was always impatient with those who begged for gentleness." - A Bell for Adano by John Hersey pg 48

The Mosque at Ground Zero

Just because something is legal doesn't mean it's in good taste, or an idea that should be supported. A mosque at/near ground zero is ridiculous. I don't care who you vote for, it's still RIDICULOUS. I think The President was cowardly in his comments about it, & I'm so sick of the PC bullshit [supporting it]. - Lisa's status, seconded by me.

Yes, yes, we know its legal, that's not the point I was making. it's tasteless....why would they even WANT to build there? I would not want to build a building of my faith where my faith failed so badly, giving the criminals a false sense of honor in killing. The Christian community wouldn't want to build a church on top of Auschwitz, why do they want to build at ground zero unless their motives are not pure of heart.

My Day

Lazy day off today. I napped in the morning, took the wee ones to a play area, napped again. Made some calls, then spent the evening school shopping with Lisa and YaYa at the mall. I work both jobs tomorrow, so in the end it all evens out.
