is... wishing Americans would wake up before it is too late.

Another 'one of a kind' artist.
I feel so blessed to have been able to grow up in the midst of the best musical era that ever was, or ever will be.
Probably more 'classic rock' radio stations out there than all others combined.
To think .... the Rolling Stones selling out the largest venues in the world ..... in their mid - to - late 60's .... and a good portion of the crowd is in their early 20s .....
Who'd a thunk it?
Her hooking up with Bobby Brown was the worse thing she could have done.
Where in the Constitution does it state the President has the authority to tell a private company they must provide free ANYTHING?
Gee .... I wish Zero WOULD plagiarize the work of one of our past real presidents!
Yes, She was best known for her performance of the National Anthem, and Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You", I think.
Both of which send that chill up and down my spine.
Such a tragic waste, and so young.
Yeah, I'm just wondering if it was a suicide.
My history lesson for the day (also called "geezing"!)
Not bad at all. Is this residents only, or anyone?
LOL!
What a piece of work you are!
Heck, I thought you were still one of those bright young kids!
Yes, but to those who have no standards anyway, they can easily live down to that level.
Good. I'm happy for you. We all need at least a few real 'friends', as well as many 'acquaintances'.
I value my friends as much as I value my own life.
Well OK .... Can we compromise on five or six?
I'm maybe gonna ruffle your feathers here a bit on that closing statement.... sorry .. but really .....
It does matter .... it matters because if the kid didn't write it, and claims he did, then he is basically dishonest ..... which is one of the reasons we are in the shape we are in today. People just 'accept' dishonesty as being 'normal'.
Now, I would bet my last dollar that you'd never submit an article to a paper, and sign off on it that you had written it, unless you had, indeed written it. If you 'borrowed' a passage from someone else, you would give them credit through a footnote or otherwise.
Am I correct?
I'll just assume I am correct ... and say that it does matter to you who wrote it, because from what I have seen of you here on this site, you are an extremely honest person, and would never make a false claim in such a situation.
Don't sell yourself short ...... your standards are higher than that. You live up to them. Why shouldn't others live up to them, before you give them credit?
I hope you take this in the spirit in which it was written .... and not as something negative, because it was/is not. It is meant to be VERY positive.
By Golly the nap part sounds great ..... I couldn't sleep well last night ....
Chores? not me ... I'm recuperating from major surgery, and will be for the next four or five .... years!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Sure - his 'writing czar' .... !
Well, 20 years in the Army taught me there is a big difference between 'friends' and 'acquaintances' ....
I've been very fortunate to become acquainted with a lot of good folks here ....
but as far as 'friends' go .... to me that's a different matter. I can honestly say I only have maybe three or four 'real' friends.
What I mean by a 'friend' is someone who would step in front of me to take a bullet if need be .... or would reach in their wallet and hand me their last dollar if I needed it .... and I would do the same for them .... to me, that's a real 'friend'.
But, I'm a real case study in human behavior too, so please take it all with a grain of salt. And squirrels flock to me in great numbers .. LOL
Yeah, it was a compliment!
He sure can't spell "constitution"!
Does great with CZAR though ....
I agree with you. But of course, Kids do seem much brighter today than when I was one. They've come a long way in just three or four years!
Yeah, sure does! A target of the leftist embiciles! LOL
K2 - Thought Zero went to Harvard? Oh that's right .... we're not even sure he completed high school!
plagiarism ...????
Chris - do you believe the economy is on the mend? Really?
Seeing fewer 'for sale - Foreclosure' signs in the bedroom communities these days?
Any of those empty Circuit City stores re-opening? Borders? Any at all?
Are the employment office parking lots vacant?
Food Pantry programs continue to get rising requests for assistance?
How many more people on food stamps now, than in 2008?
Is the national debt rising or falling?
Gas prices back down to where they were in 2008? Milk Prices? Food prices in general? Gotten a raise at work lately? Sirloin Steak still $10 a pound?
In a nation already short of doctors, are we still losing them to retirement due to the miserable labyrinth that is "Obamacare"?
Will the top 1%, who were paying 43% of all the taxes collected, while only accounting for 19% of the total income, have their taxes raised to a 'fair share' rate?
How are the burglary rates? Seeing a lot of young men hanging on street corners during normal work hours?
Have the body counts stopped going up in Afghanistan?
Egypt, Syria, Tunisia ..... all stable, democratic, and free?
Borders secure? Reading those bills the White House posts to the internet before signing them? Watching the president's meetings on C-Span?
Illegal immigration at an all time low, or jobs for illegals at all time low? Laws getting tougher about hiring them?
The debt has risen how much under Obama? The stimulus to the car companies cost the citizens how much?
White House still honoring everything they 'propose'?
Almost sounds like a complete meltdown of the entire system over the past three years.
We gonna be blaming Bush in 2027?
How many bills have passed the house, and sit languishing, begging for attention, in the Senate?
Still getting your 'facts' from MSNBC or one of the other majors?
Not trying to play 'gotcha' guy, but things look different from way out here in the heartland, as opposed to the view you get from the Beltway, let me tell you.
Tried it. Liked it a few weeks. Became a burden, and required lots of time to maintain. Inactivated it. Haven't missed it at all. I hear ya Zach! Chatting at the water cooler is much more interesting.
Your response to anyone who has a better idea than you, is expletives. You are a sad, lonely, hateful person. Why not work on changing that before you try to run the world?
As much as I hate to admit it, it's happened to me more times than I care to recount. Or, maybe they 'fit', technically, but just didn't 'feel right' is the real problem.
You're on a roll tonight. Two for two!
The only thing I disagree with is the 'reholstering' part. It's the draw I'm concerned with. I'll have all the time in the world to re-holster. Yeah, I know, she isn't talking about the same thing I am, but you know I have to find something to quibble about! LOL
Thanks very much for two good articles - articles we can use over and over.
That is very much akin to asking why buy insurance, isn't it? LOL
Read your aritcle. Good one. Thanks!
(Don't you know, we CCW folks are 'compensating'?)
Trinity - Please don't tell me you stayed home and didn't vote against Obama, come election day. Even Felix the cat would be better.
A general degradation of respect and morals all over the country. It's for the same reason people have no respect for the property of others anymore. It is for the same reason people have no respect for themselves any longer. I believe it started when we took prayer out of schools. It started when schools stopped teaching morals. It started when the left wingers decided they didn't have to respect the country, the flag, or any one including themselves. It started when we got activist judges who thought they were wiser than the founding fathers, and began to legislate from the bench. It started when teachers stopped administering corporal punishment in schools. it started when the god damn left got the idea they were too good to practice common courtesy toward the flag, this country and their fellow man.
This, from the most transparent administration in history. All bills posted on the internet for 5 days prior to signing. Everything broadcast on C-Span.
Now, come on, there couldn't possily be any ulterior motive to this. Never!
Shut up
Could have also responded "bullshit"
How many words do I have to respond? I could probably do it in one word if you want?
I really enjoyed her work back in the late 80's/early 90's.
Never saw her in concert, but was always tld she really put on a good show, back when she was clean.
Did meet her aunt, Dionne Warwick, one time. Got to sit around and shoot the shti with her, and have dinner, once when she came to Africa on an AIDS benefit something or other. Tlk about a wild woman! Lit one cigarette off the other all night and never once did I see her hand without a drink in it. Just a 'regular joe' type though. Stupid me, I neglected to take my on Dionne album to get her to sign it! Oh well ..........
Yeah, directly or indirectly .... and of course Bobby Brown figured in the mix too, at least somewhat.
Oh Shut up.
