  • Yeah, Rita, that's a good point. But you can eat chocolate one days and vanilla the next, without hating on either one. Or you can love chocolate without hating vanilla. Or you can love vanilla without thinking that chocolate is the worse. Or you …
  • STOP IT! It is dangerous to continue talking about Democrats and Republicans as if we are enemies and fit into the molds of either party -- as defined by the media (print/visual/audio). I don't want the candidate I vote for to have an "image". I …
  • Okay, Don, et al -- you didn't invite me along so I will stay home by the fire with cheese and wine, and warm my hurting heart. Enjoy your beer and that wonderful blooming onion, and let's work together for this terrific land of ours!
  • Don, you're kidding, right?
  • Enjoy the parade. Congrads.
  • I almost give up -- but not quite. Bush (the administration) said the war was about Saddam and Weapons of Mass Destruction -- Not about terrorists or training or any such thing. Congress voted to give the authorization for Bush to go to war if n…
  • But Owenlady, What if "they" don't care a hoot about coming over here and doing it to us -- what if "they" just want to live without having us going over there and doing it to them? As an optimistic realist, it is not just about peace, love and fl…
  • My reference to the pillaging and looting was to the war itself (because I do not agree that the USA had proper provocation to invade). If the Iraqis wanted to get rid of that dictator -- and we assisted them, that's one thing, but to declare ourse…
  • Yes, we (the U.S.A.) are the invaders who are pillaging,stealing and killing in another country -- and we are doing it under the guise of liberation of the Iraqi people. I would probably be closer to you than you can imagine should we discuss unsup…
  • "When THEY attacked US on 9/11" The THEY referred to above is exactly who? Just asking for clarification.
  • Let's not spend time dealing with grammar when the larger issue is miss-stating responses. No one said there is a "RIGHT" by anyone to do evil things (like roam, pillage, steal, cut off heads, etc.). Just apply the same standards to all. How can …
  • But National Guard, I thought the U.S. did do something about a "sadistic, immoral" person who would carry out such atrocities -- it was called the invasion of Iraq. My heart goes out to the woman (she has spent 30 years in Iraq working for Iraqi c…
  • Oh, yeah! or Smokey -- getting ready for the week-end.
  • Okay, I'll bite. I thought it read: "Some Quirky Thinking in Mississippi", so I immediately wanted to know what Don was up to now.
  • Ditto Judy's comment!!!
  • Politicians visit churches to influence the parishioners to vote for them. Mr. Kerry's visits to Black churches are for the same reason (and he probably likes the good music, too). Just as many charges are made by democrats who feel that the rep…
  • It sure is very very clear that different people can look at the same candidates and see completely different things. I have lived and voted in many elections -- have never seen this degree of angst based on who one will vote for. I lived through R…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-19-04 AT 03:55PM (CST)[/font][br][br]MWild31, I am so very impressed by your thoughtful analysis and your ability to change when you see it differently. While I too will be voting for Kerry -- if any…
  • But we have one already -- it is called "Election Day" and it comes around at least every four years.
  • What in the world would there be to boast about? It sounds like we all need to exhale.
  • I get a completely different take on it if a country applauds a soldier who has a limb amputated and returns to active duty in a war zone. From what my husband tells me about his time in Viet Nam -- fighting a war would be no time to get used to…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-11-04 AT 08:54AM (CST)[/font][br][br]Sorry about the weather -- but your trip still sounds like quite an adventure! When I did a Diversity Training in N.C. last year, it was amazing what was written …

  • I saw it on CSPAN and split my side laughing! It is what I call an EOFM (Equal Opportunity Funny Moment)
  • Dare I hope, National Guard? Could I even dream that you might reconsider? MD is depending on you! Celeste, When a very excited carpenter ran into my office the morning of 9/11, I was right smack in the middle of an applicant interview (just ha…
  • Kerry Shoot - I'm voting again and I don't care who doesn't like it. Just pretend I live in Florida, okay.
  • Yeah, I betta talk to that National Guard! Where are ya, Sam?
  • I liked Rodney's standups. He was really funny talking with hosts (Johnny Carson, Jay Leno, etc.) as well. Cedric the Entertainer has his own style and is very funny, as well. He wouldn't try to be like Rodney (who could!) but would add his own f…
  • Ah shucks! Wonderful

  • Alone -- oh, No. Interviewed a fellow for summer trim paint program. He interviewed like a dream. Sent him to Team Manager who rated him 95% on customer service skills and 98% on technical knowledge. Offered him job, contingent on background chec…
