Sorry CLint........time to pack up the Koi and meet me in the Yukon!
if we can get them KOI to Texas fast enuf, they’ll grow big enuf for saddles
I’ve often gone to those two places to help out for 1-2 days, plus soup kitchens, nursring homes, and homeless shelters, just to get my “balance” back. It works for me.
Special election for VA state senate that decides whether it stays demrat or republican.
Mark just said the Rat won.
just damn
ANd it may help our chatty cathy lad too...if he gives it a whirl.
NOTHING makes you forget about your ills faster than a child smiling through Chemo, because he/she doesnt want YOU to cry!
With all the snow, and the demrats drive “Smart Cars” and normal people drive 4WDs, I thought we had a chance.
CLint, I am convinced more than ever, that we have not had an HONEST election since Reagan
Crap... I shoulda called Mr. Call Screener during the show. No answer now. I don’t do Facebook... any chance one of his minions put it up there? Nothing in the links section of the show website.
easy guys. He seems like a nice guy-I have enjoyed talking with him. Be nice. He reminds me of many folk here on FR-they just need and enjoy having like minded folks to talk with.
OK mommy
We still have the House so Terry McAwful can’t ram anything through.
And there has to be a tie in the senate for the demrat Lt Gov to cast the final vote.
Could be worse, like Merryland...
Back in 1976, when I’d moved to NJ and was working in NYC, my Dad went to Sloan-Kettering in NYC for removal of a malignant mole (3rd stage melanoma) on his back, by renowned surgeon Dr Joe Fortner, and Mom (RN) was with him daily, and I visited him everyday before we went back to NJ for the night. They got it all; no chemo, no radiation. Fortner was that good, and Mom spotted it and made it happen. 14” scar and 3lbs of ‘meat’ removed and all-clear biopsies of his lymph nodes.
While walking the halls, on my way outside for a smoke, I ran into 4-5-6-7 year old children, in hospital gowns and flip flops, undergoing chemo and radiation for terminal cancer, pushing IV Trees and I’d help their frail little figures push the trees around, sit and talk, tell them about the day and night outside in NYC, and ask about their world inside the hospital. They were so optimistic, smiling and innocent, but full of hope and life. They were dying and they knew it, but they had faith in God and were thankful for the time they had.
I frequently had tears running down my face and they would take tissues and wipe my tears, hold my hand, asking me why I was crying for them.
I met their families and snuck treats up to them from the Jewish deli across the street.
That grounded me like no other event, except possibly surviving that 1974 robbery/shooting in Florida.
Slowly and sadly, VA is trending toward blue. The lib-marxists-commies-progs-life nazis are infiltrating and taking over. They’re like a cancer, silently spreading inside the unknowing host’s body politic.
It’s part MSM, part upper school educational system and low information voters.
I agree. I’m from Montana.
Dad when he was diagnosed was given 6 months. He went up to Sloan-Kettering and he lasted 14 MORE years. Medicare even payed for him taking a new drug at that time @ $100K a year in his last year. He was their poster child.
0bama is going to Fluke that over for me if I inherited his gene.
I’m Welcome!
