At “Hauteurs,” the waitresses don’t have big boobs, just an attitude. Even Hillary could work there.

Good luck, truthy, hope your ticker is ok!

Thanks. So far, so good. I'll do a stress test in a couple of weeks. Or, they could just have me watch an Obama speech to get my heart rate and blood pressure going.

Muslims?

That would be profiling. Instead the list will include Christians, gun owners, Republicans, Libertarians, etc.

Thanks. Everything went well. Stress test on a treadmill in 2 weeks. Or, they could just have me watch Obama for 2 minutes.

Have you read the stuff about the O’s minions threatening Benghazi survivors? The victims have lawyered up.

After an outrageously expensive workup, he is a good candidate for cataract removal surgery, with intraocular lens replacements. For the same price, I could buy a small used car. I’m trying not to worry about the expense. He’s a nice little dog who had a rough start in life. I got him after he was rescued from a puppy mill where he spent the first 4 years of his life in a cage. Constantly in a cage. I have worked a lot with him, to undo some of the psychological damage but this condition is from inbreeding and poor medical care prior to adoption.

73 and cloudy-and a cold front on the way to set some new records for a frigid beginning to May...

When Obama perceives his hauteur
Has begun to wear a little thin
He turns to his minions with
A shrug, a sigh and a grin

Demanding they fix everything
From image to the next speech-
Then he plans another vacation
With some photo ops at the beach

Meanwhile, the trash piles up
And the rumors start to cook-
And the minions ignore history
As they all use Nixon’s book...

I’m now officially a chicken farmer. Or rancher. We got 7 chicks today. They’ll be under the heat lamp in the basement for several weeks.
