Caption This Cat! Randy Already Did!
This my friend April Paul's cat, Max. Thanks for letting us use your photo, April! It's so funny! She snapped this picture this morning and I showed it to Randy. THIS was the caption Randy thought of:
This my friend April Paul's cat, Max. Thanks for letting us use your photo, April! It's so funny! She snapped this picture this morning and I showed it to Randy. THIS was the caption Randy thought of:
You KNEW somebody would do something like this!
I guess Jimmy Kimmel got to it first!
It's pretty funny, too!
My family is like clockwork on the couch at 7pm. We all watch 'Wheel of Fortune' together. I'm actually signed up as a 'Wheel Watcher'! Then we get ready for some 'Jeopardy'!
Exciting, right?
Anywho...the returning champion, Artrhur, made a crazy wager. Even Alex Trebek laughed!
If you've never seen these videos, you've been missing out!
This is JUST like Chad and Pumpkin!
Do YOU own a cat like Simon's cat?
If you've seen them, you know which skits I'm talking about. Saturday Night Live has launched the careers of some great comedians like Adam Sandler, Chevy Chase and Will Ferrell.
But who could forget Chris Farley?
I've seen plenty of his skits but these 2 were my favorites! I can't decide which one I like better!
See...even the President is in the holiday spirit--kind of.
By this time everyone has seen those ubiquitous "Every Kiss Begins With Kay" ads this Christmas season. Are you sick of them yet? Do you ever wonder what would happen if the person hated the gift they got?
When I saw this this morning I said 'Yup...Chuck Norris could do that."
Jean Claude van Damme......WHO?
Is there anything Chuck Norris can't do...
"Sesame Street" is back at it again!
Recently, they spoofed "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" with "The Hungry Games: Catching Fur" and now they are taking on the "Lord Of The Rings" saga with "The Lord Of The Crumbs!"
When I arrived at work I almost tripped over the new phone books that someone had put just inside the door.
That gave me an idea.
And Andy went along with it, God bless him!

A knife-wielding crook attempting to hide in the children's section of a library branch in Olney after robbing a store owner yesterday was shot by a police officer when he lunged at her with the weapon, cops said.
Mark Cottman, 31, of Warnock Street near Wagner Avenue, was taken to Albert Einstein Medical Center and was listed in critical condition, police said.
Library employees told police that the man had visited the branch in the past and had been seen muttering to himself, a police source said.
Yesterday afternoon, an employee at the library watched Cottman remove his shirt and calmly exit the library, police said, before he walked three doors down to J&K Shoes, on 5th Street near Tabor Road, where he robbed the store owner of his pocket money.

TripAdvisor Reviews Hotel Mas Camarena Valencia
Travel Blogs from Valencia
Day 49
We drove from Calpe back up to Valencia and went to the science museum. They had 2 main floors of interactive stuff. My favourite floor was the 1st floor where they had a room with all light, sound, mirror and electricity type stuff. One you made the lights work if you held onto both ends of wire which meant you closed the circuit and the lights …
Day 47
Last day at Cracks CF I really would like to come back sometime and play for them. In the morning we did our normal training session, but at the end we had a match of football tennis it was me, Luke and Lecretia against Adam, Tim and Jaryn. We won 20-16 and the prize was getting to take a photo with the super Copa. Adam, Tim and Jaryn stole the …
Day 46
Today we went to training by ourselves while the adults went into Valencia so when we got back to the hotel we had no parents. Me and Luke played in my room until four when the parents would be back.
When dad and the others got back we went on the bus to training. Today I was with the 12 year olds but this time me and Tim did really well …
Day 45
Got up, had breakfast and then went to my morning training session. Did lots better than last night so pretty pleased. After lunch we went into Valencia and went on a tour of CF Valencia's stadium. It is called Mastella Stadium. The stadium can hold 55,000 people, It has a big bat on one side of the stadium. We got to go inside the stadium and see …
Day 44
I had a morning training session with Adam, Luke, Jayron and Tim. Then had lunch back at the hotel and had a sleep. Then we went up and had a swim in the pool. At 5.45pm until 7 we had another training session with 11-12 year olds. I admit I could have done better that day. I was very tired. After training we had an ice cream, went back to the hotel and had dinner.

coolnerd replied to ZWK's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)sigh
coolnerd replied to coolnerd's topic in The Baseball ForumWell finally over .500...more than anything playing better fundamental baseball than earlier (imo)
coolnerd replied to EBF's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)I am glad to see this breakdown. I was feeling like I was making 3rd round decisions as early as the late 1st/early 2nd in my drafts. the numbers seem to reflect this idea.
coolnerd replied to fruity pebbles's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)Well, for me the "draft' and 'rosters" portions are what's down.. i can do stuff that's not related to those two things, but of course that's what needs to be done.
coolnerd replied to howatzer's topic in IDP ForumThere is no perfect answer to this problem but if we go to positional designations of DL (4-3 tackles, 3-4 tackles/ends), OR (outside rushers - 4-3 ends and 3-4 OLB), LB (all 4-3 LB and 3-4 ILB), and DB (all defensive backs), we will solve a great deal of the arguments out there. We could still separate the DB positions if we want but there are now a lot of players (Byron Jones for example) who are at one position in the base defense and shift to slot corner in sub packages. If you watched the NFL draft you heard Mike Mayock describe several players as outside rushers. Even he didn't call them ends or linebackers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- what's interesting is that the leagues where owners were trying to be more 'sophisticated' with tight position designations are actually the ones with the most issues. some older .i.e. more simple systems only used DL. LB, DB even in 11 man leagues. Adding OR to this gives the most accurate portrayal of what occurs on the field. And yes, the leagues i commish uses specific position break out versus the 'old' way. Edit: the SS/LB is still a little troublesome...maybe just have a category for DP...defensive player which I think yahoo leagues use
coolnerd replied to Flint Fireballs!'s topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)Got it...just assumed I wasn't the only one who had to the word up
coolnerd replied to Flint Fireballs!'s topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune.
coolnerd replied to Hankmoody's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)so of course, this year there were 6 RBs taken in round 5..and arguably all of them have a reasonable path to some fantasy relevance.
coolnerd replied to eakfootball's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)Probably the worse sequence of I want get rid of my spit offers I have gotten 1) MHS offers Hillman, Ronnie DEN RB; Year 2017 Round 5 Draft Pick Cheaply Extravagant Bookworms for Allen, Keenan SDC WR; Year 2016 Draft Pick 7.07 2) After no comment rejection MHS offers Hillman, Ronnie DEN RB;Dye, Donteea TBB WR;Herndon, Javontee SDC WR;Crawford, Tyrone DAL DT; Year 2017 Round 3 Draft Pick Cheaply Extravagant Bookworms for Romo, Tony DAL QB;Lockett, Tyler SEA WR; Year 2016 Draft Pick 4.07;Year 2016 Draft Pick 5.07 3) After "I can't even counter that" rejection MHS offers Hillman, Ronnie DEN RB;Dye, Donteea TBB WR; Year 2016 Draft Pick 6.09 Cheaply Extravagant Bookworms for Romo, Tony DAL QB;Bryant, Martavis PIT WR; Year 2016 Draft Pick 5.0
coolnerd replied to Dan Hindery's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)I agree
coolnerd replied to coolnerd's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)BOB seems to have a long relationship with Fuller...right or wrong it appears to have played a factor. http://www.chron.com/sports/texans/article/Bill-O-Brien-eyed-Will-Fuller-while-he-was-7382762.php
coolnerd replied to coolnerd's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)I think the design of the offense a 3WR base that will use so-called WRs 2-4 (maybe even 5) as match up pieces. Even with his issues, the indications seem to be that Fuller and Miller were not replacement parts versus additional features. this might mean that strong has his fantasy upside capped a bit, but does not mean the club has given up on him.
coolnerd replied to Andy Dufresne's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)Well, I surely did not know what I was talking about here.
coolnerd replied to coolnerd's topic in Looking For Leaguesneeds an owner no longer needs an owner Buy me can be bought for $10 in this full IDP weighted PPR league... some really good pieces in place on that roster and all of the draft picks for 2016 http://www58.myfantasyleague.com/2016/options?L=37891&O=07&F=0007
coolnerd replied to coolnerd's topic in The Shark Pool (NFL Talk)The offense has seriously increased its raw speed and big play ability when the moves are taken as a whole versus them apart. The Texans are attempting to move away from the methodical, must execute every play stuff of the past few years. sure, there is plenty of questions of the how and who, but I at least see them as trying to change the nature of the offense. whether it works is what they play football games to find out. I don't think that the Texans are thinking of the offense in terms of number 2-4 (hopkins given) versus having 3-4 Wrs sets with guys that have cause different match-up problems. I will be interested to see if the Texans try to upgrade TE and what type. I think the Texans will some version of the pro spread, passing match-up offense. What we saw the first two years was more modified Kubiak with some stuff thrown in than what O'Brien envisions as how to play offense in 2016. My belief is BOBs offense passes early and often. With being shaky at best undercenter and a one man show passing game, the Texans still were 10th in the league in pass attempts in 2015, but were 30th in completion percentage and 29th in yards per attempt. Edit: I posted this before the Braxton Miller pick..wash, rinse, repeat, with heavy starch

Honestly, you won't find better quality food at such an unbeatable price. You can get a chicken souvlaki plate, complete with fries, rice, pita, tzaziki and soup or salad for $10- it's easily two meals. The Greek salad with chicken is by far my favorite

Whenever you think about which maximum impact driving functions, which have to be distinctive, disseminate and irregular, then Makita impact driver will serve the best purpose.
Here the main problem for the majority of the people is that, they only assume which and how much air conditioning power is required in order to torque minor & big nuts and mounting screws.
Makita cordless Impact driver is very easy to use:
Unquestionably nothing but can be extra in reality. Moreover, currently using the overview linked with the batteries of lithium-ion, now day's effect drivers are capable of having the genuine liquid in order to sustain all of this increasing to four times lengthier. Furthermore, an important is that, these batteries are economical and keep extra electrical power as compared to the National Protection Cards.
In addition to this, Makita BTD142HW design having 18 volt is considered as a perfect example linked with the accurately how many ideas came as resultant. Starting with the 5 ¾" along with 2.8 Ibs, is actually scaled-down, lightweight and more solid as compared to the normal systematic air conditioning focused impact. Nevertheless, these function influential four posts modifiable speed engine, which offers 1,280 Ibs linked with the torque and dues away from the RPM 3,200.
The benefits:
If users have required moving on with respect to batteries in their additional battery resources to cost beforehand, then they are capable of avoiding this with the LI batteries and Makita new & innovative charger.
Moreover, it is rapid cost setting which cost the genuine electrical battery related to impact drivers in fifteen minutes. As it is the LI battery and it contains no storage effect, rapid cost will not harm this does not matter whatever.
Understandably, if users have to perform any sort of function with their power resources, they will understand exactly that how problematic heavy big nuts and mounting screws can be for hands and wrists.
By following the long daytime, the driver might leave all users painful. Apart from this, in can result in severe problems like Tendinitis. Actually, it is main reason that why the majority of the Makita Impact Drivers have been created with the gun grip ergonomic counter deals with.
Furthermore, these drivers can fit in your hands fairly like the baseball glove, at the same time you can whistle your fingertips cover quite easily to their first groves. All the things are working together to make these sort of resources simple. Whilst battery impact drivers are very popular because these kinds of high powered fastening resources are growing rapidly. It is quite easy to understand the basic reasons behind the popularity of the of compact, lightweight and high-powered impact drivers.
Furthermore, impact drivers give advanced fastening heavy torque without shrinking. Users might rarely seen all of these stimulated or even mentioned to as giving reactionless torque. As compare to the drills, cordless impact drivers never kickback or never expose customers for counter-revolving torque.
It is not easy to say which cordless impact driver is better performer as compared to the drills as there are various impact drivers. Furthermore, impact drivers dominate energetic nails, whilst battery drills apt to be perfect from dull beginnings along with the energetic nails having repeatable level and accuracy.
Currently, users can get two main kinds of driver solitary speed and multi-speed. Moreover, users will find impact drivers with the brushless engine or device and without brush engines. Most of the time, brushless impact drivers can even give multiple pace and torque configurations. According to the reviews of the users, they have used the several different versions and kinds of the impact drivers. They have found the Makita cordless impact driver as one of the best driver.
Overall, it is important that impact drivers must be joint with the impact graded screwdrivers parts. These parts are made from the hard metal as compared to the non-impact parts, which reduce the likelihood that these parts will break split aside. Some people have used the 1" place parts, but majority of the functionalities can be achieved best with 2" power parts.

Events :: Maritime piracy: strengthening the EU response
Maritime piracy: strengthening the EU response
8 January 2013
The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) is organising a public presentation of its opinion on "Maritime piracy: strengthening the EU response".
Piracy is a complex problem affecting European Union consumers, businessmen, seafarers, ship-owners and the taxpayer. From both a humanitarian perspective (in 2012, six seamen were murdered and 448 were held hostage) and from an economic one (estimated costs amount to EUR 5.5-9.5 billion per annum) the EESC considers that EU efforts to combat piracy have been insufficient and that vigorous action is urgently needed.
The public presentation of this opinion will take place on 24 January 2013 (2 p.m.-5.30 p.m.) at the EESC premises in Brussels. Selected high-level EU representatives from the European Commission, European Parliament and the Council were invited. Key non governmental stakeholders in the field will participate in the debate, namely Nautilus International, the European Community Shipowners' Associations, the International Maritime Bureau, the European Transport Workers' Federation, and the campaign SaveOurSeafarers.

Artist in Wilderness
*Interested in supporting Wilderness Workshop's Artist in Wilderness program? You can't have a residency without a residence. We need housing for four 2016 artist residencies. Each artist, 1 week in the Roaring Fork Valley, June, August/September. Preferably a guest house or cabin that is not being used. Wilderness Workshop will take full responsibility. Please contact Mary at: email@example.com.
Residency Program
The Artist in Wilderness program invites artists for one-week summer residencies near Aspen, Colorado. Since 2008, selected residents have been given the opportunity to create art in natural settings that WW is working to protect.
Chosen by a jury of regional artists and collectors, participants have worked in a variety of mediums, including land art. For 2016, the program has accepted professional artists working in wood, stone, clay, and glass. This year's artists include Chris Condon, Barbara Cooper, Jason Kishell, and Alyssa Oxley. Click here to learn more about the artists.
Program History
The Artist in Wilderness program honors the memory of Wilderness Workshop co-founder Dottie Fox by promoting the importance of wilderness in our lives. Dottie expressed her reverence for nature through her art. She painted the landscapes that she sought to protect, and shared her love of art by teaching.
With fellow "Maroon Belles" Connie Harvey and Joy Caudill, Dottie co-founded the Aspen Wilderness Workshop and co-led the grassroots campaigns that secured the Hunter-Fryingpan, Collegiate Peaks and Raggeds Wilderness Areas, and more than doubled the size of the Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness! Dottie's passion for wilderness and creative expression has been extended through the activities of our annual artist residents, who come to be inspired by the environs of the White River National Forest and share their response to the experience through an artistic medium.
Program Details
Selected artists will be provided with housing, a guide, a $1,500 stipend and reimbursement for travel. Artists are responsible for providing their own food, equipment and materials. Good health and endurance are essential.
Artists are expected to use their residency to derive inspiration from and make art in the White River National Forest or nearby federal public lands. They are required to donate one original work made during their residency or inspired by it to Wilderness Workshop, and to license certain reproduction rights to other works from the residency to help WW raise funds for future residencies.
Meet the 2016 selected Artists. Please stay tuned for the 2017 application.
For more information about the Artist in Wilderness program, contact Rebecca Mirsky at: email@example.com
Many thanks to Mary Dominick-Coomer (pictured with Sven Coomer)
who has led the Artist in Wilderness program since its inception.

One year later, when advisor Elizabeth Miller joined the team, it became clear that the students and our advisors had ambitions to do more. The IAC SAB was formally chartered, backed by the Office of the Dean, and became able to hold formal meetings, events, and discussions. In 2004, Richard Barke won the Burdell's Best Award for campus-wide Best Faculty Advisor. Then in 2009, Elizabeth Miller also received the honor.

Skip to comments.AP-Yahoo poll shows McCain winning back unhappy Republicans
Posted on 04/17/2008 6:10:40 AM PDT by tlb
WASHINGTON (AP) - Republicans are no longer underdogs in the race for the White House. To pull that off, John McCain has attracted disgruntled GOP voters, independents and even some moderate Democrats who shunned his party last fall.
Partly thanks to an increasingly likable image, the Republican presidential candidate has pulled even with the two Democrats still brawling for their party's nomination, according to an Associated Press-Yahoo news poll released Thursday. Just five months ago - before either party had winnowed its field - the survey showed people preferred sending an unnamed Democrat over a Republican to the White House by 13 percentage points.
Also helping the Arizona senator close the gap: Peoples' opinions of Hillary Rodham Clinton have soured slightly, while their views of Barack Obama have improved though less impressively than McCain's.
The survey suggests that those switching to McCain are largely attuned to his personal qualities and McCain may be benefiting as the two Democrats snipe at each other during their prolonged nomination fight.
By tracking the same group of roughly 2,000 people throughout the campaign, the AP-Yahoo poll can gauge how individual views are evolving. What's clear is that some Republican-leaning voters who backed Bush in 2004 but lost enthusiasm for him are returning to the GOP fold - along with a smaller but significant number of Democrats who have come to dislike their party's two contenders.
(Excerpt) Read more at apnews.myway.com ...
McCain is blessed by having such lousy opponents — thus he receives the gift of lowered expectations.
Hillary and Obama are the reason.
>> To pull that off, John McCain has attracted disgruntled GOP voters
Attract? Nah. But as the truth about the Rat candidates sinks in, Obama and Hillary! are REPELLING GOP voters into John's arms (where else can they go).
I don't.
Now THAT's funny!
As bad as Hillbama may be, if the election were held today, I still wouldn't vote for McCain.
It's always been that way and I expect it always will be. Those who sit around waiting for the Great Pumpkin Messiah candidate are nearly always disappointed... or delusional.
To pull that off, John McCain has attracted disgruntled GOP voters, independents and even some moderate Democrats who shunned his party last fall.
Some of the disgruntled are returning while others have left and moved on to other parties seeking their fame or obscurity.
My name is 50sDad: I voted for Ross Perot, and helped elect eight years of a sniggering, arrogant, smug, Leftist Liberal smart@$$.
Ditto ... and based on the populist pandering this week with his "greed" comments, it makes even considering a vote for McCain even harder.
McCain has a golden opportunity to embrace conservative positions on taxation (death tax, income and capital gains), energy and the economy ... which will BE the issues come September. I don't see him jumping out to take the lead on these.
Then you might as well vote for Obama then.
As bad as you say McCain is would you rather have Obama or Hillary who are light years worse than McCain can ever be?
I can't believe people hate McCain so much that they wouldn't vote at all or vote for some thrid party canidate and therefore help put Obama in the White House.
Darn. I missed that poll.
This might help: President McCain Promoting or Obstructing Conservatism (a desision making tool)
I'm not in the mood for arguing today, but please consider what the troops in Iraq have been fighting for and our military reputation around the world before you sit out the election.
Nor I.
In a race between a communist and a defense-minded Rino, I'll probably hold my nose and vote for the Rino.
I guess even tarantulas have their fans.
I think if you read the link in #16, you'll understand why. It's not intended to change your mind, just help you to reason through the decision according to your values.
I'll vote for McCain in November - but he'll get no financial or volunteer support from me.
Any money or volunteer effort will go to other candidates in my state.
You voted for who you felt was the best candidate. That is all any of us can do. It wasn't a RP problem but a weak leadership by the Republican Party IMO. If you are connecting with the public no one is going to take your base away.
Strengthen the things that remain.
Moving the national election day to April 15 is the easiest way I know how to bring about conservative policies and conservative politicians ... I can't see continuing to subsidize "sorta kinda sideways sometimes" conservative candidates in the hopes they get a couple of issues right.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows John McCain leading Barack Obama, 47% to 42%. The presumptive Republican nominee also leads Hillary Clinton 50% to 40%. Among unaffiliated voters, McCain leads Obama by eight percentage points and Clinton by fifteen. Daily tracking results are updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time (see recent general election results).
Overall, among all voters nationwide, McCain is viewed favorably by 55% and unfavorably by 42%. Obamas ratings are 47% favorable and 51% unfavorable. For Clinton, those numbers are 42% favorable, 56% unfavorable (see recent daily favorable ratings). Among unaffiliated voters, McCain is viewed favorably by 55%, Obama by 47%, and Clinton by 34%.
Regardless. I'm not a fan of McCain either but I would never waste my vote on some third party canidate and help put some smug, closet racist, marxist in the White House.
If you think Clinton was bad well, Obama will be a hundred times worse.
Perhaps by 2012, there will be a chance to elect a true Conservative President. We can work on that then.
Allowing either Hillary or Obama to win this election would be devastating to the country.
We also know that we cannot allow this country to fall into the communist hands of Obama, or into the Marxist hands of Hillary who will use the IRS as a tool to crush her enemies.
Simply stated, American patriots have resolved in their own minds that they will take a McCain shiv in the back because they love this country more than they hate McCain and are willing to personally sacrifice as much.
"...people preferred sending an unnamed Democrat over a Republican to the White House..."
The trouble for the Dems is now they've named them, and they are both anti-American Leftists.
Vengeful compromises destructive to conservatism and freedom in the long term in exchange for immediate power?
"Perhaps by 2012, there will be a chance to elect a true Conservative President."
How many people will support conservatism after seeing that its compromise was the path to success? How many people will believe that the Republican Party promotes conservatism after 4-8 years of McCain? How many people will even understand conservatism after President McCain?
The more we grip the more we get. You think if all conservatives just shut up and jumped on the bandwagon he'd be talking tax cuts now? Keep the kvetching going until November I say.
McCain is not winning conservatives. They are going to him by default because otherwise we'll end up with Carl Marx or the great Socialist Shrew.
" Im not a fan of McCain either but I would never waste my vote on some third party canidate and help put some smug, closet racist, marxist in the White House."
The shortest path to a destination is not always a straight line.
I have really bad news for you. I, too, was once sucked in by these phonies. I was stupid enough to send them (the CP party) money--twice. Then my eyes were opened.
These thieves took my money and used it to run ads against Bush--not Gore or Kerry!!
It was disgusting. They were trying to get Gore and Kerry elected. I have nothing but disdain for them.
I've also come to realize that these phonies stand there beating their chests pretending to be more sanctimonious than Republicans knowing full well, they'll never win anything. They don't even want to win anything. If they did, they'd have to then govern and they wouldn't be so perfect then.
If you want to throw away your hopes, and money and help elect one of these absolutely terrible RATS, I guess this is America (even though that is slowly eroding away) and you can do it but you're being deceived in the process.
We can play a part in that.
If McCain gets elected, we should support him when he acts as a Conservative, and he will on some issues. On those issues where he does not act as a Conservative, we need to oppose him vigorously.
The candidates in 2012 or 2016 will also have to help define why the Conservative approach is the best approach. If they can do that, and can connect with the voters, then they can win election even if McCain behaves as a RINO in office.
If we allow Barak or Hillary! to assume the office, where they control the military and appoint the judges with a rubber stamp Senate, there may not be much of a country left for whoever we run in 2012. That needs to be prevented at all costs.
More like, we know that Obama and Hillary would be much worse, so we are just playing the hand we've been dealt.
I feel that 1980 was the culmination of years of under the radar creative activism and growth, that began with Goldwater. The problem in my view is that I don't see that same kind of energy and effort among conservatives of today, outside of the geopolitical engagements regarding the WOT. I'm by no means a Libertarian isolationist type, but it seems to me that the war on terror has sucked all the energy of conservatives to deal with that, while at the same time energizing the socialist wing of American politics.
Too bad we don't have a candidate we can be enthusiastic about. It's all a question about the lesser of two evils.
Did I read also the Gallup poll shows McCain beating both those other 2? Unreal. He is underfunded, some question his age, and the party is unenthusiastic. But if he is leading at this point it must be a big indicator of how pathetic the Dems are.
Sadly, you are correct.
There are two main reasons I am voting for McCain - Clinton & Obama.
The Constitutional Party and Libertarian Parties seem to spend all their time trying to decide who's "holier than thou".
Thanks for posting elfman2. I just scanned it, but will go back for a more detailed reading.
I agree that McCain is the least undesirable of the 3 remaining candidates. However, he's drunk the kool-aid on global warming, his economic policies remain less than coherant, and he's proven himself far too willing to jump across the aisle to the detriment of this nation.
To exhort me to vote for McCain simply because he's not as bad as Obama or Hillary, while calling me a traitor for not voting for McCain, simply isn't going to get my vote.
Yup. McCain will throw conservatives under the bus whenever he wants to appear "bi-partisan" to his news media and Beltway friends. That's a given.
So we conservatives know that we're leaping onto the McCain hand grenade in order to save the rest of our country...because Hillary and Obama and Gore and Kerry are foreign agents, gooks, inside the wire.
We can't allow the NVA to run the U.S.
So we vote McCain to save the country, even though McCain won't advance conservativism.
...but he won't sell out our country. He is a patriot. And he won't set conservatism back as much as having ChiComs, Hugo Chavez, Castro, Putin, or Kim Jong Il in the White House (and that's Hillary, Obama, Gore, and Kerry).
On the plus side, at least McCain will roll back the federal tax on our gasoline.
Yes, there are some that act like a battered and abused spouse that continues to hang on to a failed and repulsive marriage.
I will not support the insidious traitor under any circumstances.
You got that right. They're cowards. Actually, it's worse than that. They're liars. They could actually affect change for the positive if they would all realize that the only viable vehicle for them to accomplish what they claim they want to accomplish is the Republican party. The RP would be stronger if all would fight together.
Obviously, they're closet leftists.
Nicely put!!
Disagree. Was it a choice between the lesser of two evils between Reagan and Carter?
I really can't think of an evil GOP nominee since 1980, except of course, McCain. They all had flaws, but all were at least moderate Republicans. This election it really is a choice between two leftists.

About Their Majesties
A Quick Missive
People fall in love in mysterious ways. Having known each other since childhood (ages 4 and 7), Elina and Adhemar grew up across the road from one another, and were set from then on to be life-long friends. Paths can take you many ways in life, but eventually their separate paths brought them together again two years ago. They could not be happier for where they are now, at the precipice of opportunity to serve the Kingdom which has showered them with so much love and support.
Elina, Adhemar, and their two wonderful children reside right in the heart of Meridies, and are delighted to be part of one of the most unique Kingdoms in The Known World. They are tremendously excited for the challenge of bringing joy, fun, and presence to the populace. Through diligence, hard work, and, of course, shenanigans, Their Majesties Adhemar and Elina promise nothing more but unending love and support for the populace that makes the Kingdom of Meridies what it is.
In service to the dream,
Adhemar and Elina

Look at his little face...
#hedgehog #cutenessoverload
So you heard about Google+. This fantastic new social "something" that gives you access to the world and still allows you to control who sees your posts. You can share your passions with others and spend hours being entertained while expanding your knowledge, horizon and circles.
You sign up. Skip all the tutorials (how difficult can this be?). Skip creating a profile (can do it later). Jump straight into it (that share what's new box looks inviting) with a message to the world "Hello, I'm new here." or "Add me please....".
You wait a minute... nothing....3 minutes... nothing....5 minutes.... this is a ghost town, I'm out of here. Why did this happen?
Did anybody see your message? If you are under 18 your privacy settings say that only people in your circles can contact you or comment in your posts. If you have circled zero people guess how many will be able to reply to you? If you are over 18 only people who are following you (added you to their circles) will see your message in their home page (the main place for reading posts).
Before posting you need an audience willing to read your posts.
1) Time to fill out that profile if you have not done so. It's pointless to invite people to join/follow you if they don't have an idea who you really are. Remember: First impressions really count. This is what people will see when they first meet you. Pick a photo (get rid of the blue head). Share a little more information than just gender.
2) Click on circles button (left menu). Then "Find friend" button. That will unlock the "All suggestions" hidden button. Click on it and you will get the choice to search for people you already know. Contacts from your email accounts, classmates (if you added schools), coworkers (if you added workplaces).
3) How do you get strangers to be followers? You have to find them and it won't take 5 minutes. Where do you find them? Your stream (home page) will be mostly dead or full of "what's hot" messages.
a) Try typing one of your interests in the Google+ searchbox (just below the black bar).
b) Read the posts shown by the search results.
c) +1 the ones you like. Write some meaningful comment longer than 1 word. And add them to the appropriate circle.
Congratulations! All the participants in this post will now be aware that you exist. They will see your name and will get notified that you just +1d or commented. They will be curious about who you are and look at your profile.
d) hopefully you filled out your profile and some of them decide to add you to their circles.
Warning: Do not mindlessly +1 every post in the hope that people will see you. Believe me they will see you and mark you as someone to be ignored. Your comments should be positive. You are trying to earn friends not enemies.
Note: Some people recommend using the "nearby" feature on mobile devices to find people that are located near you. I do not recommend it until you clearly understand the consequences. It is a little bit like blind dating.
Listen first.
Now that you are following some people your stream will start to fill up with their posts. Continue to +1, comment on their posts to gain visibility and followers. Reshare those posts that deserve a +10. Warning: Do not reshare every post otherwise the value of your reshares will decrease rapidly.
Reading other people posts will allow you to learn what is valued, what is a good post, what is a bad one. How people interact and etiquette in Google+.
Keep expanding your circles by searching and exploring other things that interest you.
Start posting
By now you should have a small audience. Publish a few posts and see your followers reaction. When they +1, comment or reshare your post, thank them.
Unless your post is for a select group due to its content, just publish public. Circles are mostly used to sort out the reading. People will figure out to which reading circle you belong.
It is true that you could target audiences by using circles, but the fact is that as your circles grow it will become impossible to ask everyone that adds you their own particular interests. Also I might have circled you for your cartoonish posts, but later discover that I am also interested in your French cuisine ones. I might have totally missed the later ones if your sharing is very limited to each group.
Note: Also public posts have unlimited reshare possibilities and ripples. Limited posts have restrictions.
Hope this was not too long to read. This is just the tip of the iceberg. I have not talked about the controls that are available (some day I will), notifications, photos, videos, pages, recommending websites or news articles, hangouts, events, local, integration with Gmail, Docs, YouTube, maps and search.
Google+ is really a must have and a window to a new world. Expand your circles and engage!

What is your number one question about Google Plus? Circles confusing? What's authorship? Why use it? What is that thing you've always wanted to know but ... just didnt know where to look.. .? Post them here.. and then let me answer them for you... :) Or for that friend you are trying to convert to the Plusverse :)

Mexican Woman Gives Birth To Sextuplets
Category: Society
/ Jan 14, 2013 4:20PM EDT
A Mexican woman has given birth to sextuplets - two boys and four girls - after complications forced doctors to perform a Caesarean section at 27 weeks into her pregnancy. The mother Salud Romero Ruiz commented on the surprise of the six children: "Yes, the doctor had told me there were five. During the operation, when they started taking out those on top and then I was told there was another one" Due to their delicate health, the babies were put into intensive care. On Monday (January 14) doctors announced that two of the babies - both girls - had died. Hospital Director Yara Pineda told a news conference Saturday (January 12) that all babies were underweight and still in postnatal care. "The babies' weight is obviously very low. They weigh between 500 grams and 900 grams and the outlook is not the best, obviously, because they are underweight and due to their short gestational period. But we are doing everything we can to help them in the best conditions possible." In 2001, Ruiz gave birth to quadruplets, but only two of them survived. Rare in nature, multiple births are often the result of medical fertility treatment, but Romero Ruiz is not thought to have received such treatment during either pregnancy.
