Can someone teach her stylist to do a French twist, FCOL? Her vacant eyes need an updo.

Ever notice how that K looks like a headless figure waving to you? Might be one of those suborbital influences working on us.

I thought a blintz was one of Anna's Rain Dear. A guy is working in the yard, painting the cinder blocks under the lawn autos and he takes a small libation or two of “Old Furnace Maker” and finds himself blintzed up the krieg.
The wife says, “Come in from the rain dear, you're blintzed! Again”.

I've been to Paris, Il-annoya and it's nothing like that. Look at the cereal with “O”s. Looks like little life rings floating around....with nobody in them!

James R. says look at bran flakes, same as brain flakes, soy milk, Soylent. James R. will explain it when his writing privileges are restored.

Rain on the way today, but right now it is mostly cloudy and a springlike 68 out-

I really hope that Israel will
Repeat what they’ve done before-
Treat Iran to a blitzkrieg that
Blows their nuke dreams out the door

Just do it now, and tell no one
That the reckoning could come today-
Screw Obama’s wait-for-November
He doesn’t live in Israel anyway

He just fears that he’ll be shown
As a cowardly, sniveling ‘rat-
Who needs to step down so that someone
With cojones can pick up the bat

The hapless Komen Foundation was utterly unprepared for the blitzkrieg launched by the baby-killers at PP and their deplorable tools in the U.S. Senate.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Last night I tried to donate to them after their decision to cut off funding. I couldn't get on their website. Now I'm glad I didn't!
