[SerpentDove]

Good morning, Billie!

Just when I am all high with this thread, I check email & find...

for all.. got this from my conserv neighbor..

@@@

Barf alert was email subject heading..

This is a proposal to replace the current American flag with one that is more in step with our times! The white "pentagons" of our current flag, as they are referred to in the write-up, are replaced by "free form constellations"!

The "bloody" red stripes are replaced by various shades of black, brown, red and yellow to represent the inclusion of all people of color in the representation of America!

It is suggested to viewers to place a forearm to the flag to see where they fit. "This flag represents inclusion, rather than exclusion as has been the case in the history of the USA".

This would be a hoot if it were not so scary! I am so glad to be on 'the back nine of life" so to speak! I feel so sorry for my kids that crap like this will probably be a part of their everyday lives. Since when did it become fashionable to not be an American? I think I'm going to hang up my flag with the bloody red stripes and white pentagons!

Good morning LadyX. Thank you so much for your continued prayers and rememberance of Jim.

What a blessing for Logan and his family! I'm praying that God will nurture him into a healthy, happy child that is a treasure to his parents. Shine your light to the world little one. All the others remain in my prayers as well, God bless everyone.

Hi Billie I hope things are going well for you.

[DollyCali]

Hi Back pretty lady..

listening to pres on radio.. no cable/dish & he is not on any of the 5 sorry stations I get on TV..

He sounds tired, scratchy throat.. but answers are good

Howdy! :) I had to sneak on for a few minutes.

Jim is scheduled to go into surgery at 4:00pm Central time. If all goes well he should be in recovery after about 2 hours of laproscopy. In the event additional tissues/blockages are found they will have to open him up and he could be under as long as 5 or 6 hours. I'm praying that they can get him out of OR with only the lap, because the less they cut & keep him under anethesia, the sooner he'll be able to heal. I'll post more as soon as I know anything.

[Aeronaut]

Good morning Billie.

[The Thin Man]

High, Bill-e. Nhysss prezentayshun! Ewe dun grayt.

[Donaeus]

A FORMER Texan? I don't wanna know what you did to become un-Texan. ;) I'm sure it must have been painful.

Thank you for your prayers. I am always relieved (and truly blessed) when I remember God is the one in control. However, sometimes I forget He has the reigns. It is amazing how He patiently brings me to focus again. No one loves us like God does.

Re: Post #70

Huh?

[Billie]

Hi, Libby - just finished watching/listening to the President. They sure didn't cut him any slack, did they? He did a nice job handling them, but he didn't seem to have his usual spark. I imagine he gets so weary of the same old tired questions though.

[Pippin]

There's only three colors I want for the flag representing my country!

Red, White and Blue! :O)

[Billie]

Good Grief! This is the new politically correct version of Old Glory?

[Pippin]

I'm keeping your friend, Jim in my prayers!

[Billie]

Morning, Temple - doing fine here - hope all is well with you. :)

[Pippin]

I think this is so sad when even the flag we'ved waved for 200 years is now "politically incorrect"

It makes me SICK!
