happy anniversary to my wife and I

7 years ago we married if you did not get us a gift well at the end of the post you can give the gift of cash or even buy yourself something at one of our stores and thus we both get something


of feel free to buy yourself some snowflakes from the keeweenaw

swine flu stuf in case you are not getting enough info already

officail info from the CDC

naturealy i am somewhat concerned esp for my father an old man in poor health but hopefuly one of the benifits of living out here is we are away form the cities and easy access to travelers from mexico

the only remaeding q is wether the hysteria is spreading faster than the flu and wether it is doing more damge

semi adult coment.......

Why in the world is GAY man judging a beauty pageant full of nothing but girls

A bi Guy like myself sure but someone openly gay man, very strange it seems pretty clear to me his participation as vecile to promote himself

swine flu geess

Lastest swine flu on the loose in Mexico check with the CDC for more info

checking the date is it 1984?

The President and/or the AG might support pursuing the lawyers for writing thier opinions as a criminal matter if the AG after them thinks they were wrong?

good greif I can't even think of a case where the 3rd Reich pursued as a criminal matter lawyer that had opined something not supported by the Party later when it cam to power.

Maybe I am still asleep or something

maybe it is trail balloon that has not been thought out
if my phone was working Id be on the phone to someone.

One can disagree as to wether "toture" is legal but suely venturing one opinion MUST be legal or the rule of law is thertened

perhaps this will turn out like the 90 tax on AIG bonus to be quietly lost in translation

phone was up then down again

OTOH we know the main problem, sliding snow and smashed the att net work interface box. As I use hughes.net is sat based it is not affected but we can't call anyone and no one can call us.

have you ever tried reporting a phone problem via the net....

but indeed this we are doing today

ah well.........

we had manged to get through the entire winter season to date without a power failure caused by the weather but today we lost power for 3 hours today oh well such is spring in the CC

well the world has been saved from WMD's

Yes I have heard the Messah speaking at the CIA and lerned the thrrat once posed by Weapons of Mass Destruction is banished from the world.........


.......Now we face the new threat Catostopphic weapons.....

get real man changing all the names is not promoting the security of the nation

shades of 1984 it is looking like Orwell just got the date wrong, or did he is revision to the calendernextso that 9/11 never happened and 9/11 can never happen since it wll be remove3d from the calender too

WHO knows

late spring strom they are calling it

when what Thursday and Friday I was wondering if I should be busted my rump to drag out and reinstall the ac unit we get the whip tail of that storm that buries Colorado last night and today going to be weird and wet withe forecast not calling for any ground temp below freezing the whole time and warm weather that may indeed have wanting those AC units within a few days

free speech advocacy

reada few days ago to you dear readers (yesterday to me) someone claiming that if you lack the credentals you are not anything.......

Hogwash truly..........
advocates advocate.......

It seems silly to say but that is people or should I say... sheeple

and with every first spring day in the copper country..

saw a woman called golda (on DVD)

reminds me of what it is like to be jew again as if I did know already

tea party report from houghton MI

here is one photo from the event I thought perhaps the best single image other are at here

I esitimate that about 150 to 200 people were there the mining gazzete says maybe 250 people

was a suprising crowd to me anyway was quiet and reserved the speakers well received till Mike Lahti (I think that is in fact the write spelling guys) the state rep showed he was not expected. I respected the fact he had the guts to show and say he had voted to raise my taxes, with terms limits he and the current crop of bozos had what was left for them by a budget defined by the boom days of the auto industry. The crowd got a bit ugly in tone but I don't think anything happened at that point. we left being a bit tired

tomarrowis tea day....I mean tax day tomarrow

all my required tax forms are filled......I think at least so wityh the tax are confusing as it isone can never be sure, of course.

Tomarrow I like many others will be goingto a Tea party here in Houghton
