I love a good book,


but my last one wasn't that great. Finally gave up on "Stranger in a Strange Land." Got 2/3 thru it and realized it was boring, and there's too much good stuff out there to be bored. Went to library and got "Atlas Shrugged" 'cause it was highly recommended by many, including the librarian. However, as I was checking it out, all 1200 pages (it better be good), she told me they had gotten in the new Nelson DeMille (currently my favorite author) book, which I was on the waitig list for. SOOOO, I now have a lot of quality (I hope) literature to read. Speaking of expectations, today's Bush quote, from Air Force One on 6-4-2003. " I'm the master of low expectations." Sometimes it's hard to argue with his logic.

I am glad you got Atlas Shrugged. I am actually reading it again. I 1st read it when I was 19 and never forgot it. Hang in there, the 1200 pages are worth it, in my opinion! Plus you have to find out the answer to the ? Who is John Galt?

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
