Just returned,

from two weeks in Europe. Pic above (click to enlarge) is my lovely traveling partner, taken in Lucerne, or Luzern, as they call it, Switzerland, beside the famous wooden bridge. Fantastic trip with perfect weather and no problems. Started in London, then joined tour group for channel crossing to Brussels, then on to Amsterdam for a couple of days. Next, it was a cruise up the Rhine valley with a stay in Heidelberg and couple days at Lake Lucerne, followed by an all day ride to Paris, through some beautiful country. The tour ended after 3 days in Paris, but we flew to Rome, our fav city, for a few more days. Then, it was a flight to London, followed by a LONG flight home, that ended last night. Today, dealing with jet lag and a body clock that is 8 hours off. Thanks, Ted and Kari, for watching Bailey and the airport rides. Carol started to keep all the wine corks, but would have needed a bigger suitcase....

Screw you, whoever you are. This is my diary for my rocking chair years, which are coming up fast. If you don't like it, don't read it.

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

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...

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...
