For those who care,

we just got back from a 'journey'. Took a trip, back to our roots, and met with family members, for Carol's bother's memorial. He died too young, at 57, BUT, it was a blessing, if you know what I mean. Cancer took him quickly. Roger is in a better place. We celebrated his life, by eating at his favorite place, bowling in his name, drinking his favorite beer, eating his fav sundae and popcorn. You had to be there to understand. It may be the last time we all meet in Kearney, except for doing the same thing with my parents, (who are doing great, at this point). 'Twas a special time for my folks to meet Piper, who was a great little girl, as she giggled and smiled her way into everyone's heart. In the "Circle of Life', we lost Roger and got Piper., All in all, a very cosmic weekend. We made a decision to drive back to Colorado, into a winter storm, and we made the right choice. Made it home, to 10" of new snow, BUT, the roads were clear and dry, and we're home and safe. Bailey is in a strange mood, and is a little upset that we left her, for a few days. Hopefully. she'll forgive us.

Bailey is an "all knowing" puddy cat. That feline has a 3rd eye which makes for a completely sensitive kitty. Bailey picks up on what you're feeling and the surroundings.

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...
